Local thermal adaptation and limited gene flow constrain future climate responses of a marine ecosystem engineer

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2020
Rising ocean temperatures and extreme temperature events have precipitated declines and local extinctions in many marine species globally, but patterns of loss are often uneven across species ranges for reasons that are poorly understood.

Genetic variation within and among naturally regenerating populations of alder (Alnus glutinosa)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
To assess the inter- and intrapopulation genetic variation in the filial generation (F1) of alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.), 11 naturally regenerated populations were analysed. Their parental populations (P), represent the whole Polish territory and

Cultivation, varietal structure and possibilities for cross-pollination of Brassica napus L. in Slovenia

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2011
Oilseed rape, Brassica napus L., is one of the most important oil plants of the moderate climatic zone and a typical industrial plant. In the past, dynamics of oilseed rape production in Slovenia was reflected in flexible agricultural market situation ...

Assessment of genetic relationships among native and introduced Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) plants based on genome profiling

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
We conducted genomic characterization based on SNP and SilicoDArT markers on the invasive Himalayan balsam (Impatiens glandulifera) plants originating from native and non‐native regions of their distribution.

Species Delimitation with Gene Flow [PDF]

open access: yesSystematic Biology, 2016
Species are commonly thought to be evolutionarily independent in a way that populations within a species are not. In recent years, studies that seek to identify evolutionarily independent lineages (i.e., to delimit species) using genetic data have typically adopted multispecies coalescent approaches that assume that evolutionary independence is formed ...

Courtship behavior, nesting microhabitat, and assortative mating in sympatric stickleback species pairs

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The maintenance of reproductive isolation in the face of gene flow is a particularly contentious topic, but differences in reproductive behavior may provide the key to explaining this phenomenon.

Wild and cultivated olive tree genetic diversity in Greece: a diverse resource in danger of erosion

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
The genetic relationships between Greek wild olive tree populations and cultivars were investigated. A total of 219 wild genotypes and 67 cultivar genotypes were analyzed by employing 10 SSR markers.

Targeted gene flow for conservation [PDF]

open access: yesConservation Biology, 2015
Abstract Anthropogenic threats often impose strong selection on affected populations, causing rapid evolutionary responses. Unfortunately, these adaptive responses are rarely harnessed for conservation. We suggest that conservation managers pay close attention to adaptive processes and geographic variation, with an eye to using them ...

Conservation of Genetic Diversity of Scots Pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in a Central European National Park Based on cpDNA Studies

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
In the old pine stands of national parks, it is possible to observe genetic processes in a state free from disturbance by humans. Studies of this type make it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the conservation of genetic variation and its ...

Genetic differentiation that is exceptionally high and unexpectedly sensitive to geographic distance in the absence of gene flow: Insights from the genus Eranthis in East Asian regions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Genetic differentiation between populations is determined by various factors, including gene flow, selection, mutation, and genetic drift. Among these, gene flow is known to counter genetic differentiation.
