The potential of genomics for restoring ecosystems and biodiversity
Billions of hectares of natural ecosystems have been degraded through human actions. The
global community has agreed on targets to halt and reverse these declines, and the …

A molecular view of plant local adaptation: incorporating stress-response networks
Ecological specialization in plants occurs primarily through local adaptation to different
environments. Local adaptation is widely thought to result in costly fitness trade-offs that …

Fitness variation across subtle environmental perturbations reveals local modularity and global pleiotropy of adaptation
Building a genotype-phenotype-fitness map of adaptation is a central goal in evolutionary
biology. It is difficult even when adaptive mutations are known because it is hard to …

A large-effect fitness trade-off across environments is explained by a single mutation affecting cold acclimation
Identifying the genetic basis of local adaptation and fitness trade-offs across environments is
a central goal of evolutionary biology. Cold acclimation is an adaptive plastic response for …

Genotype–environment associations to reveal the molecular basis of environmental adaptation
A fundamental goal in plant biology is to identify and understand the variation underlying
plants' adaptation to their environment. Climate change has given new urgency to this goal …

QTL× environment interactions underlie adaptive divergence in switchgrass across a large latitudinal gradient
Local adaptation is the process by which natural selection drives adaptive phenotypic
divergence across environmental gradients. Theory suggests that local adaptation results …

Functional variants of DOG1 control seed chilling responses and variation in seasonal life-history strategies in Arabidopsis thaliana
The seasonal timing of seed germination determines a plant's realized environmental niche,
and is important for adaptation to climate. The timing of seasonal germination depends on …

Small spaces, big impacts: contributions of micro-environmental variation to population persistence under climate change
Individuals within natural populations can experience very different abiotic and biotic
conditions across small spatial scales owing to microtopography and other micro …

The search for sexually antagonistic genes: Practical insights from studies of local adaptation and statistical genomics
Sexually antagonistic (SA) genetic variation—in which alleles favored in one sex are
disfavored in the other—is predicted to be common and has been documented in several …
