Marine heatwaves (MHWs), discrete but prolonged periods of anomalously warm seawater,
can fundamentally restructure marine communities and ecosystems. Although our …

The environment experienced early in life often affects the traits that are developed after an
individual has transitioned into new life stages and environments. Because the phenotypes …

Seasons impose different selection pressures on organisms through contrasting
environmental conditions. How such seasonal evolutionary conflict is resolved in organisms …

Evolutionary biologists have long trained their sights on adaptation, focusing on the power of
natural selection to produce relative fitness advantages while often ignoring changes in …

Multiple species show significant trait shifts in response to urbanization. Yet, the impact of
anthropogenic warming linked to the urban heat island effect is remarkably understudied. In …

Metazoans display a tremendous diversity of developmental patterns, including complex life
cycles composed of morphologically disparate stages. In this regard, the evolution of life …

In this horizon scan article, I review the emerging area of ecological epigenetics in marine
animals with studies of DNA methylation as the primary focus. Epigenetic mechanisms such …

Climate change poses a particular threat to long‐lived trees, which may not adapt or migrate
fast enough to keep up with rising temperatures. Assisted gene flow could facilitate …

Projections of marine biodiversity and implementation of effective actions for its maintenance
in the face of current rapid global environmental change are constrained by our limited …

Nanoparticles of cadmium oxide (CdO NPs) are among the most common industrial metal
oxide nanoparticles. Early adulthood (P1) fruit flies (D. melanogaster) were exposed for 7 …
