Similar traits and functions commonly evolve in nature. Here, we explore patterns of
replicated evolution across the plant kingdom and discuss the processes responsible for …

Aim High repeatability among assemblages of closely related but ecologically distinct
ecotypes implies predictability in evolution and assembly of communities. The conditions …

Parallel adaptation provides valuable insight into the predictability of evolutionary change
through replicated natural experiments. A steadily increasing number of studies have …

Replicated radiations, in which sets of similar forms evolve repeatedly within different
regions, can provide powerful insights into parallel evolution and the assembly of functional …

Aim Although whole‐genome duplication (WGD) is an important speciation force, we still
lack a consensus on the role of niche differentiation in polyploid evolution. In addition, the …

Parallel local adaptation, that is, when distinct genetic lineages independently adapt to the
same selective environment, provides strong evidence for the action of natural selection. A …

Climate-induced evolution will determine population persistence in a changing world.
However, finding natural systems in which to study these responses has been a barrier to …

The independent and repeated adaptation of populations to similar environments often
results in the evolution of similar forms. This phenomenon creates a strong correlation …

Understanding how organisms adapt to the environment is a major goal of modern biology.
Parallel evolution—the independent evolution of similar phenotypes in different populations …

This chapter outlines an empirical analysis of genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP) variation and its underlying drivers among multiple natural populations within a …
