Selecting for Stem Color - Timeline and Calendar

This document includes a timeline and calendar to serve as planning tools for teachers to use when figuring out when to begin the steps associated with conducting a two-generation artificial selection experiment using Fast Plants. This investigation focuses on selection for the stem color trait. Teachers preparing for a selection experiment will find the calendar particularly helpful, and the timeline can be used as a printable student guide as well.

This investigation was created alongside the Investigating Brassicas Around the World lesson (searchable in Digital Library) but can also be conducted as a standalone lab experiment.
