Biological Processes Underlying Genetic Adaptation of Larches to Cold and Dry Winter Conditions in Eastern Siberia [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionThe boreal forests of central and eastern Siberia, dominated by larches, are challenged by increasingly harsher continental conditions and more frequent droughts. Despite the crucial ecosystem services provided by these Siberian boreal forests, the major

Can Thinning Foster Forest Genetic Adaptation to Drought? A Demo‐Genetic Modelling Approach With Disturbance Regimes [PDF]
Evolutionary ApplicationsIn managed populations—whether for production or conservation—management practices can interfere with natural eco‐evolutionary processes, providing opportunities to mitigate immediate impacts of disturbances or enhance selection on tolerance traits. Here,

Incipient resistance to an effective pesticide results from genetic adaptation and the canalization of gene expression [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2021 The resistance of pest species to chemical controls has vast ecological, economic, and societal costs. In most cases, resistance is only detected after spreading throughout an entire population. Detecting resistance in its incipient stages, by comparison,

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022 The rediscovery of Mendel’s work showing that the heredity of phenotypes is controlled by discrete genes was followed by the reconciliation of Mendelian genetics with evolution by natural selection in the middle of the last century with the Modern Synthesis.

Floral bud differentiation and mechanism underlying androdioecy of Osmanthus fragrans
Ornamental Plant Research, 2023 Sweet osmanthus is an androdioecious plant; however, the mechanism underlying pistil sterility in male plants is still unclear. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the structure of pollen grains in the stamens does not differ between the sterile ...
