Ecological genetics of Juglans nigra: Differences in early growth patterns of natural populations [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Many boreal and temperate forest tree species distributed across large geographic ranges are composed of populations adapted to the climate they inhabit.

Reverse genetics in ecological research.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
By precisely manipulating the expression of individual genetic elements thought to be important for ecological performance, reverse genetics has the potential to revolutionize plant ecology.

Ecological genetics

open access: yesEcological genetics, 2007
The current lecture course within the master's degree program at the department of genetics and breeding is devoted to the main subject of ecological genetics, which is based on several approaches usually used in investigation of ecological relationships.

Contribution of genetics to ecological restoration [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2014
AbstractEcological restoration of degraded ecosystems has emerged as a critical tool in the fight to reverse and ameliorate the current loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Approaches derived from different genetic disciplines are extending the theoretical and applied frameworks on which ecological restoration is based. We performed a search of

Ecological genetics of isolated loach populations indicate compromised adaptive potential. [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity (Edinb)
Many endangered species live in fragmented and isolated populations with low genetic variability, signs of inbreeding, and small effective population sizes - all features elevating their extinction risk.

Genetics and ecological speciation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
Species originate frequently by natural selection. A general mechanism by which this occurs is ecological speciation, defined as the evolution of reproductive isolation between populations as a result of ecologically-based divergent natural selection.

Evolutionary biology studies on the Iris pumila clonal plant: Advantages of a good model system, main findings and directions for further research [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biological Sciences, 2012
Evolutionary studies on the dwarf bearded iris, Iris pumila L., a perennial clonal monocot with hermaphroditic enthomophylous flowers, have been conducted during the last three decades on plants and populations from the Deliblato Sands in Serbia.

Evaluating genomic data for management of local adaptation in a changing climate: A lodgepole pine case study

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2020
We evaluate genomic data, relative to phenotypic and climatic data, as a basis for assisted gene flow and genetic conservation. Using a seedling common garden trial of 281 lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) populations from across western Canada, we compare

Temporal and spatial variation in population structure among brooding sea stars in the genus Leptasterias

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Temporal genetic studies of low‐dispersing organisms are rare. Marine invertebrates lacking a planktonic larval stage are expected to have lower dispersal, low gene flow, and a higher potential for local adaptation than organisms with planktonic ...
