Rapid local adaptation linked with phenotypic plasticity

Evolution Letters, 2020
Models of “plasticity‐first” evolution are attractive because they explain the rapid evolution of new complex adaptations. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether plasticity can facilitate rapid microevolutionary change between diverging populations.

Host association, environment, and geography underlie genomic differentiation in a major forest pest

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Diverse geographic, environmental, and ecological factors affect gene flow and adaptive genomic variation within species. With recent advances in landscape ecological modelling and high‐throughput DNA sequencing, it is now possible to effectively ...

Genomic analyses point to a low evolutionary potential of prospective source populations for assisted migration in a forest herb

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Climate change is increasingly impacting temperate forest ecosystems and many forest herbs might be unable to track the changing climate due to dispersal limitation.

Adaptive RGB-D Localization [PDF]

2012 Ninth Conference on Computer and Robot Vision, 2012
The advent of RGB-D cameras which provide synchronized range and video data creates new opportunities for exploiting both sensing modalities for various robotic applications. This paper exploits the strengths of vision and range measurements and develops a novel robust algorithm for localization using RGB-D cameras.

Insights into the neutral and adaptive processes shaping the spatial distribution of genomic variation in the economically important Moroccan locust (Dociostaurus maroccanus)

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Understanding the processes that shape neutral and adaptive genomic variation is a fundamental step to determine the demographic and evolutionary dynamics of pest species.

Genomic differentiation in Pacific cod using Pool‐Seq

Evolutionary Applications, 2022
Patterns of genetic differentiation across the genome can provide insight into selective forces driving adaptation. We used pooled whole genome sequencing, gene annotation, and environmental covariates to evaluate patterns of genomic differentiation and ...

Climate change adaptation in Fiji : Local adaptation strategies to enhance national policy [PDF]

, 2023
As in other Pacific Island countries, coastal communities in Fiji face an urgent need to adapt to large-scale climate change risks, including sea level rise and extreme weather events.

Association of a Global Invasive Pest Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) with Local Parasitoids: Prospects for a New Approach in Selecting Biological Control Agents

Insects
Spodopotera frugiperda is a worldwide invasive pest that has caused significant economic damage. According to the classical biological control approach, natural enemies that can control invasive pests come from the same area of origin as the pests that ...

Plant–parasite coevolution: A weak signature of local adaptation between Peruvian Globodera pallida populations and wild potatoes

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Plant–parasite coevolution has generated much interest and studies to understand and manage diseases in agriculture. Such a reciprocal evolutionary process could lead to a pattern of local adaptation between plants and parasites.
