Whole‐genome resequencing (WGR) is a powerful method for addressing fundamental
evolutionary biology questions that have not been fully resolved using traditional methods …

In an epoch of rapid environmental change, understanding and predicting how biodiversity
will respond to a changing climate is an urgent challenge. Since we seldom have sufficient …

Global climate change (GCC) increasingly threatens biodiversity through the loss of species,
and the transformation of entire ecosystems. Many species are challenged by the pace of …

In nature conservation, there is keen interest in predicting how populations will respond to
environmental changes such as climate change. These predictions can help determine …

Parallel adaptation provides valuable insight into the predictability of evolutionary change
through replicated natural experiments. A steadily increasing number of studies have …

Understanding how the environment shapes genetic variation provides critical insight about
the evolution of local adaptation in natural populations. At multiple spatial scales and …

Local adaptation arises as a result of selection by the local environment favoring
phenotypes that enhance fitness. Geographic patterns of phenotypic variation are in part …

Persistence of natural populations during periods of climate change is likely to depend on
migration (range shifts) or adaptation. These responses were traditionally considered …

Local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity are two important characteristics of alpine plants
to overcome the threats caused by global changes. Among alpine species, Arabis alpina is …

Urbanization significantly alters natural ecosystems and has accelerated globally. Urban
wildlife populations are often highly fragmented by human infrastructure, and isolated …
