Farmers Adaptation as Local Wisdom in Drought Disaster in Simpenan Sub-District, Sukabumi District

Agritepa, 2023
The farmer community is never separated from drought as an environmental cycle. This study aims to determine the adaptation formed by the environment of hydrometeorological disasters as the most important factor in shaping local wisdom in shaping the ...

Mild temperatures differentiate while extreme temperatures unify gene expression profiles among populations of Dicosmoecus gilvipes in California

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Accurately predicting the effects of future warming on aquatic ectotherms requires an understanding how thermal history, including average temperature and variation, affects populations of the same species.

Estimating the impacts of climate change on the habitat suitability of common minke whales integrating local adaptation

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Climate change is exerting unprecedented effects on the habitats of marine mammals. Common minke whales (Balaenoptera acutorostrata) have suffered immense harm from commercial whaling, and the recovery of this species is likely threatened by climate ...

Interactive Effects of Epichloë Endophyte, Dormancy-Breaking Treatments and Geographic Origin on Seed Germination of Achnatherum inebrians

Microorganisms, 2021
Background: the cool-season grass Achnatherum inebrians (drunken horse grass) is an important species in the northwest grasslands of China. This grass engages in a symbiotic relationship with Epichloë endophytes, which affect host plants by increasing ...

Local adaptation in the transgenerational response to copper pollution in the bryozoan Bugula neritina

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Transgenerational plasticity (TGP)—when a parent or previous generation's environmental experience affects offspring phenotype without involving a genetic change—can be an important mechanism allowing for rapid adaptation.

Multilocus environmental adaptation and population structure in the Cerrado gecko Gymnodactylus amarali (Sauria, Phyllodactylidae) from Serra da Mesa Hydroelectric Plant, Central Brazil

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Contrasting environmental conditions across geographic space might promote divergent selection, making adaptation to local biotic and abiotic conditions necessary for populations to survive.

Fine‐scale spatial genetic structure in a locally abundant native bunchgrass (Achnatherum thurberianum) including distinct lineages revealed within seed transfer zones

Evolutionary Applications, 2023
Analyses of the factors shaping genetic variation in widespread plant species are important for understanding the evolutionary history and local adaptation and have applied significance for guiding conservation and restoration decisions.

A genotype × environment experiment reveals contrasting response strategies to drought between populations of a keystone species (Artemisia tridentata; Asteraceae)

Plant-Environment Interactions, 2023
Western North America has been experiencing persistent drought exacerbated by climate change for over two decades. This extreme climate event is a clear threat to native plant communities. Artemisia tridentata is a keystone shrub species in western North

Prospects and limitations of genomic offset in conservation management

Evolutionary Applications, 2021
In nature conservation, there is keen interest in predicting how populations will respond to environmental changes such as climate change. These predictions can help determine whether a population can be self‐sustaining under future alterations of its ...
