The 'genetics of sand' may shed new light on evolutionary process over millions of years




An evolutionary ecologist is using "grains of sand" to understand more about the process of evolution. The fossils of microscopic aquatic creatures called planktonic foraminifera, often less than a millimeter in size, can be found in all of the world's oceans. The remains of their shells now resemble grains of sand to the naked eye and date back hundreds of millions of years.
