The TOLERATE EU ProjectThe TOLERATE EU Project is a European research initiative focused on studying ancient environmental samples from frozen Arctic soils and sediments. By analyzing ancient DNA (aDNA) in these samples dating back millions of years, the project aims to understand how biodiversity in the root zone (rhizosphere) responds to climate changes and extreme […]
