Understanding local plant extinctions before it is too late: bridging evolutionary genomics with global ecology
M Exposito‐Alonso - New Phytologist, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Understanding evolutionary genomic and population processes within a species range is
key to anticipating the extinction of plant species before it is too late. However, most models …

Adaptation across geographic ranges is consistent with strong selection in marginal climates and legacies of range expansion
Every species experiences limits to its geographic distribution. Some evolutionary models
predict that populations at range edges are less well adapted to their local environments …

The WZA: A window‐based method for characterizing genotype–environment associations
Genotype–environment association (GEA) studies have the potential to identify the genetic
basis of local adaptation in natural populations. Specifically, GEA approaches look for a …

[HTML][HTML] California's native trees and their use in the urban forest
California's urban forest is composed of both native and non-native species. These trees

The spatial scale of adaptation in a native annual plant and its implications for responses to climate change
Spatial patterns of adaptation provide important insights into agents of selection and
expected responses of populations to climate change. Robust inference into the spatial …

A transcontinental experiment elucidates (mal) adaptation of a cosmopolitan plant to climate in space and time
Climate change and the global spread of invasive species are two of the most significant
threats to biodiversity. Both of these phenomena subject populations to novel conditions …
