Polygenic routes lead to parallel altitudinal adaptation in Heliosperma pusillum (Caryophyllaceae)

Aglaia Szukala et al.

Summary: Parallel evolution provides a powerful framework to study the evolutionary potential, constraints, repeatability, and predictability of populations. This study investigates gene expression and functional parallelism in different ecotypes of Heliosperma pusillum. The findings reveal a polygenic architecture for diverged adaptive traits, suggesting that polygenic traits play a key role in widening the adaptive potential of organisms.

Replicated Evolution in Plants

Maddie E. James et al.

Summary: This study explores patterns of replicated evolution in the plant kingdom and discusses the processes responsible for such patterns. It defines replicated evolution and examines empirical cases of replicated evolution at the phenotypic and genotypic levels. The study finds that replication at the ecotype level is common, but evidence for repeated ecological speciation is surprisingly sparse, while the replicated evolution of ecological strategies and physiological mechanisms across similar biomes appears to be pervasive. The study concludes by highlighting the need for future efforts to bridge the understanding of replicated evolution across different levels of biological organization.

Multi-trait genetic variation in resource-use strategies and phenotypic plasticity correlates with local climate across the range of a Mediterranean oak (Quercus faginea)

Aida Sole-Medina et al.

Summary: Using the Mediterranean tree Quercus faginea as study system, this research investigated the evolution of resource-use strategies and the relationship between genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity. The results showed a genetic gradient of resource-use strategies and phenotypic plasticity associated with provenance climate, with populations from harsher environments exhibiting conservative resource-use strategy with increased drought tolerance and reduced phenotypic plasticity.

Loss of transcriptional plasticity but sustained adaptive capacity after adaptation to global change conditions in a marine copepod

Reid S. Brennan et al.

Summary: This study reveals that rapid adaptation in marine copepods over 20 generations leads to a rapid loss of plasticity, potentially impacting future resilience to environmental change. The results show that while initial survival in global change conditions was facilitated by plasticity, it eroded over generations of adaptation, limiting resilience to new stressors and previously benign environments.

Global trends in phenotypic plasticity of plants

Gisela C. Stotz et al.

Summary: The study found a positive association between phenotypic plasticity and climatic variability only for plasticity in allocation, and plasticity in leaf morphology, size and physiology were positively associated with mean annual temperature. Evidence also showed that phenotypic plasticity in physiology is limited by cold stress. Overall, plant plastic responses to non-climatic factors were stronger than responses to climatic factors.

Negative relationship between thermal tolerance and plasticity in tolerance emerges during experimental evolution in a widespread marine invertebrate

Matthew C. Sasaki et al.

Summary: This study conducted a 15-generation experiment of chronic temperature selection on three populations of the copepod Acartia tonsa, finding significant increases in thermal tolerance in lineages exposed to warming conditions, but a reduction in plasticity of thermal tolerance. The results suggest that adaptation to warming through increased thermal tolerance may not reduce vulnerability to climate change if it comes at the expense of tolerance plasticity. This highlights the importance of considering both trait changes and trait plasticity during experimental evolution.

Limited plasticity in thermally tolerant ectotherm populations: evidence for a trade-off

Jordanna M. Barley et al.

Summary: This study examines the variation in thermal plasticity within species and finds that populations with higher thermal tolerance have lower plasticity, indicating that populations with the highest thermal tolerance may have limited phenotypic plasticity to adjust to ongoing climate warming.
