Ecological genomics of local adaptation
It is increasingly important to improve our understanding of the genetic basis of local
adaptation because of its relevance to climate change, crop and animal production, and …

Islands as model systems in ecology and evolution: Prospects fifty years after MacArthur‐Wilson
The study of islands as model systems has played an important role in the development of
evolutionary and ecological theory. The 50th anniversary of MacArthur and Wilson's …

[كتاب][B] Eco-evolutionary dynamics
AP Hendry - 2017 - degruyter.com
In recent years, scientists have realized that evolution can occur on timescales much shorter
than the" long lapse of ages" emphasized by Darwin—in fact, evolutionary change is …

Convergent local adaptation to climate in distantly related conifers
When confronted with an adaptive challenge, such as extreme temperature, closely related
species frequently evolve similar phenotypes using the same genes. Although such …

Convergence, adaptation, and constraint
Convergent evolution of similar phenotypic features in similar environmental contexts has
long been taken as evidence of adaptation. Nonetheless, recent conceptual and empirical …

The genetic architecture of repeated local adaptation to climate in distantly related plants
Closely related species often use the same genes to adapt to similar environments.
However, we know little about why such genes possess increased adaptive potential and …

Repeatability and contingency in the evolution of a key innovation in phage lambda
The processes responsible for the evolution of key innovations, whereby lineages acquire
qualitatively new functions that expand their ecological opportunities, remain poorly …

Evolution of polygenic traits under global vs local adaptation
Observations about the number, frequency, effect size, and genomic distribution of alleles
associated with complex traits must be interpreted in light of evolutionary process. These …

The probability of genetic parallelism and convergence in natural populations
Genomic and genetic methods allow investigation of how frequently the same genes are
used by different populations during adaptive evolution, yielding insights into the …

Linking a mutation to survival in wild mice
Adaptive evolution in new or changing environments can be difficult to predict because the
functional connections between genotype, phenotype, and fitness are complex. Here, we …
