Adaptation to climate change through genetic accommodation and assimilation of plastic phenotypes

M Kelly - Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society …, 2019 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Theory suggests that evolutionary changes in phenotypic plasticity could either hinder or
facilitate evolutionary rescue in a changing climate. Nevertheless, the actual role of evolving …

Towards the identification of the loci of adaptive evolution

Beyond thermal performance curves: modeling time-dependent effects of thermal stress on ectotherm growth rates

JG Kingsolver, HA Woods - The American Naturalist, 2016 - journals.uchicago.edu
