Predicting plastic responses is crucial to assess plant species potential to adapt to climate
change, but little is known about which factors drive the biogeographical patterns of …

Our understanding of domestication comes largely from archeology and genetics. Here, we
advocate using current ecological theory and methodologies to provide novel insights into …

Despite being major drivers of the dynamics and diversity of plant populations and
communities, the spatial variability of phyllosphere fungal assemblages has been seldom …

Understanding constraints to phenotypic plasticity is key given its role on the response of
organisms to environmental change. It has been suggested that phenotypic integration, the …

Trait-based ecology predicts that evolution in high-resource agricultural environments
should select for suites of traits that enable fast resource acquisition and rapid canopy …

Covariation of plant functional traits, that is, phenotypic integration, might constrain their
variability. This was observed for inter‐and intraspecific variation, but there is no evidence of …

Anagenetic speciation is an important mode of evolution in oceanic islands, yet relatively
understudied compared to adaptive radiation. In the Macaronesian region, three closely …

Abstract Changes in vegetative and reproductive phenology rank among the most obvious
plant responses to climate change. These responses vary broadly among species, but it is …

Theoretical and empirical studies suggest that geographical isolation and extinction–
recolonization dynamics are two factors causing strong genetic structure in metapopulations …

Canopy plasticity, the expression of different leaf phenotypes within the crown of an
individual tree has complex functional and evolutionary implications that remain to be …
