Signals of local adaptation have been found in many plants and animals, highlighting the
heterogeneity in the distribution of adaptive genetic variation throughout species ranges. In …

Divergent selection across the landscape can favor the evolution of local adaptation in
populations experiencing contrasting conditions. Local adaptation is widely observed in a …

Several recent papers have reported strong signals of selection on European polygenic
height scores. These analyses used height effect estimates from the GIANT consortium and …

How populations of long‐living species respond to climate change depends on phenotypic
plasticity and local adaptation processes. Marginal populations are expected to have lags in …

Convergent phenotypic evolution provides some of the strongest evidence for adaptation.
However, the extent to which recurrent phenotypic adaptation has arisen via parallelism at …

Genome size (GS) variation is a fundamental biological characteristic; however, its
evolutionary causes and consequences are the topic of ongoing debate. Whether GS is a …

Pinus sylvestris has a long history of basic and applied research that is relevant for both
forestry and evolutionary studies. Its patterns of adaptive variation and role in forest …

Much of what we know about the genetic basis of herbicide resistance has come from
detailed investigations of monogenic adaptation at known target‐sites, despite the …

Germplasm from perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) natural populations is useful for
breeding because of its adaptation to a wide range of climates. Climate‐adaptive genes can …

Trees' total amount of non‐structural carbohydrate (NSC) stores and the proportion of these
stores residing as insoluble starch are vital traits for individuals living in variable …
