A flowchart of example procedures for resurrection studies comparing ancestors and descendants to study evolution, including recommendations for best practices. Reciprocal transplantation means planting ancestors and descendants under conditions meant to approximate the conditions experienced by ancestors and descendants. The dashed line between “T2: descendant lines” and “Propagule storage” indicates that these propagules may often only be briefly stored, whereas ancestral lines are generally stored long term.
