Phenotypic plasticity of invasive knotweed across Europe: A distributed common garden experiment

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 7, July 2026.
In a common garden experiment with 46 populations of the invasive knotweed Reynoutria japonica planted across three sites in Europe, we found little evidence for local adaptation, but consistent strong phenotypic plasticity (‘general purpose genotype’), with a more acquisitive growth strategy in the south and a more conservative strategy and change of ...

Liturgy and Music in Hereford Cathedral in the Time of Queen Victoria and Beyond

British Art Studies, 2017
The Victorian Gothic Revival and its focus on liturgical neo-medievalism inspired the 1860s restoration of the medieval Hereford Cathedral. In this restoration, the new screen played a central part.

Outpaced by Drought: Weak Local Adaptation and Limited Potential for Drought Adaptation in a Deciduous Conifer

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT As drought impacts on forests intensify, evaluating the potential for adaptation is critical for predicting forest responses and the impacts of management strategies. We assessed phenotypic and genomic variation in western larch (Larix occidentalis Nutt.) populations to evaluate the potential for drought adaptation across its range.

Characterizing the Distribution of Oncorhynchus mykiss Genetic Diversity in the Klamath River Basin Before Dam Removal

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic assessments serve as powerful tools to evaluate the effects of anthropogenic habitat fragmentation on natural populations. In the Klamath River Basin, construction of four dams from 1912 to 1962 had a profound impact on the distribution of anadromous fishes, blocking access to over 751 river kilometers of critical habitat.

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 602-612, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.

Genomic Offsets Predict Survival With Low Accuracy in a Marine Common Garden

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 13, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Predicting how populations will respond to climate change is an urgent priority in evolutionary and conservation biology. Genetic and environmental influences have long been known to impact responses to shifting climates, giving rise to the development of genomic offset methods that attempt to predict the degree of maladaptation following ...

Breed variation and genetic parameters for growth and body development in diverse beef cattle genotypes

Animal, 2007
Conformation scores can account for more than 20% of cattle price variation at Australian livestock sales. However, there are limited available references which define genetic factors relating objective live developmental traits to carcass composition ...

Specimen‐tailored ‘lived’ climate reveals precipitation onset and amount best predict specimen phenology, but only weakly predict estimated reproduction across a clade

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 2, Page 768-781, July 2026.
Summary Herbarium specimens are widely distributed in space and time, thereby capturing diverse conditions. We reconstructed specimen ‘lived’ climate from knowledge of germination cues and collection dates for 14 annual species in the Streptanthus (s.l.) clade (Brassicaceae) to ask: which climate attributes best explain specimen phenological stage and ...
