Adaptive Genomic Divergence Across Altitudes in Capsella bursa‐pastoris

Biological Diversity, EarlyView.
Genomic divergence was observed between high‐altitude and low‐altitude populations of Capsella bursa‐pastoris in China, consistent with an important role of ecological factors. Candidate adaptive loci associated with enhanced energy metabolism, photoprotection, and growth plasticity under altitudinal stress were identified.

Goal Displacement and Goal Conflicts in Circular Innovation Initiatives: Types and Mitigation Practices

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many firms set ambitious sustainability goals but these are frequently “displaced” by proxy goals that are easier to track and measure. However, the specific types of goal conflicts that follow from this displacement are poorly understood. We conducted a case study of circular innovation initiatives at a global MedTech company and identified ...
