Rapid evolution of life‐history traits in response to warming, predation and competition: A meta‐analysis
TN Grainger, JM Levine - Ecology letters, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Although studies quantifying evolutionary change in response to the selective pressures that
organisms face in the wild have demonstrated that organisms can evolve rapidly, we lack a …

Broad geographic sampling reveals the shared basis and environmental correlates of seasonal adaptation in Drosophila
To advance our understanding of adaptation to temporally varying selection pressures, we
identified signatures of seasonal adaptation occurring in parallel among Drosophila …

[PDF][PDF] Integrating fundamental processes to understand eco-evolutionary community dynamics and patterns
Recent studies demonstrate that ecological and evolutionary processes can occur over
similar temporal and spatial scales and might thus frequently interact. Although concepts …

Climate-driven convergent evolution in riparian ecosystems on sky islands
Climate-induced evolution will determine population persistence in a changing world.
However, finding natural systems in which to study these responses has been a barrier to …

Wolbachia impacts microbiome diversity and fitness‐associated traits for Drosophila melanogaster in a seasonally fluctuating environment
The microbiome contributes to many different host traits, but its role in host adaptation
remains enigmatic. The fitness benefits of the microbiome often depend on ecological …

Frequency dependence and the predictability of evolution in a changing environment
Abstract Frequency-dependent (FD) selection, whereby fitness and selection depend on the
genetic or phenotypic composition of the population, arises in numerous ecological contexts …

Drosophila melanogaster microbiome is shaped by strict filtering and neutrality along a latitudinal cline
LP Henry, JF Ayroles - Molecular ecology, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Microbiomes affect many aspects of host biology, but the eco‐evolutionary forces that shape
their diversity in natural populations remain poorly understood. Geographical gradients …
