A major challenge in evolutionary biology and plant breeding is to identify the genetic basis
of complex quantitative traits, including those that contribute to adaptive variation. Here we …

Despite its consequences for ecological processes and population dynamics, intra‐specific
variability is frequently overlooked in animal movement studies. Consequently, the …

Seasonal and daily thermal variation can limit species distributions because of physiological
tolerances. Low temperatures are particularly challenging for ectotherms, which use both …

Temporal advancement of resource availability by warming in seasonal environments can
reduce reproductive success of vertebrates if their own reproductive phenology does not …

Climate change vulnerability assessment (CCVA) has become a mainstay conservation
decision support tool. CCVAs are recommended to incorporate three elements of …

Morphological plasticity in response to environmental heterogeneity may be performance
enhancing or may simply result from an intrinsic instability in morphology during …

Species endemic to alpine environments can evolve via steep ecological selection gradients
between lowland and upland environments. Additionally, many alpine environments have …

Landraces are key elements of agricultural biodiversity that have long been considered a
source of useful traits. Their importance goes beyond subsistence agriculture and the …

Rapid cold-hardening (RCH) is a unique form of phenotypic plasticity which confers survival
advantages at low temperature. The fitness costs of RCH are generally poorly elucidated …

Phenotypic plasticity occurs at a variety of timescales, but little is known about the degree to
which plastic responses at different timescales are associated with similar underlying …
