The timing of flowering is determined by endogenous genetic components as well as
various environmental factors, such as day length, temperature, and stress. The genetic …

Despite long-standing interest in local adaptation of plants to their biotic and abiotic
environment, existing theory, and many case studies, little work to date has addressed within …

Drought is one of the main abiotic factors that affect agricultural productivity, jeopardizing
food security. Modern biotechnology is a useful tool for the generation of stress-tolerant …

When climatic or environmental conditions change, plant populations must either adapt to
these new conditions, or track their niche via seed dispersal. Adaptation of plants to different …

Ecological and evolutionary changes are likely to occur rapidly when outcrossing
populations experience pollinator loss. However, the number and identify of plant traits that …

Nearshore foundation species in coastal and estuarine systems (eg, salt marsh grasses,
mangroves, seagrasses, corals) drive the ecological functions of ecosystems and entire …

Premise Plant flowering time plays an important role in plant fitness and thus evolutionary
processes. Soil microbial communities are diverse and have a large impact, both positive …

We studied the associations between the stem quality, phenology, and genetic structure by
genoty** the phenotypic variation at 15 genomic SSR makers of 208 mature European …

Epigenetic inheritance was transmitted through selection over five generations of extreme
early, but not late flowering time phenotypic lines in Fragaria vesca. Epigenetic variation was …

Shifts in flowering time have the potential to act as strong prezygotic reproductive barriers in
plants. We investigate the role of flowering time divergence in two species of mountain rose …
