Divergent selection across the landscape can favor the evolution of local adaptation in
populations experiencing contrasting conditions. Local adaptation is widely observed in a …

Predicting which ecological factors constrain species distributions is a fundamental
ecological question and critical to forecasting geographic responses to global change …

Local adaptation is a fundamental phenomenon in evolutionary biology, with relevance to
formation of ecotypes, and ultimately new species, and application to restoration and …

Linking interspecific interactions (eg, mutualism, competition, predation, parasitism) to
macroevolution (evolutionary change on deep timescales) is a key goal in biology. The role …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) associations are critical for host-tree
performance. However, how mycorrhizal associations correlate with the latitudinal tree beta …

Understanding how spatially variable selection shapes adaptation is an area of long-
standing interest in evolutionary ecology. Recent meta-analyses have quantified the extent …

Species' ranges are limited by both ecological and evolutionary constraints. While there is a
growing appreciation that ecological constraints include interactions among species, like …

Despite long-standing interest in local adaptation of plants to their biotic and abiotic
environment, existing theory, and many case studies, little work to date has addressed within …

Earth is changing rapidly and so are many plant species' ranges. Here, we synthesize eco-
evolutionary patterns found in plant range studies and how knowledge of species ranges …

Every species experiences limits to its geographic distribution. Some evolutionary models
predict that populations at range edges are less well adapted to their local environments …
