We overview an array of common garden genetics trials established across multiple sites
and embedded in restoration plantings in the harsh, modified Midlands region of the island …

How phenotypic and genetic divergence among populations is influenced by the genetic
architecture of those traits, and how microevolutionary changes in turn affect the within …

Genetic correlations concentrate genetic variation in certain directions of the multivariate
phenotype. Adaptation and, under some models, plasticity is expected to occur in the …

With climate change impacting trees worldwide, enhancing adaptation capacity has become
an important goal of provenance translocation strategies for forestry, ecological renovation …

The relevance of genetic constraints for evolutionary change beyond microevolutionary
timescales is debated. The high evolvability of natural populations predicts rapid adaptation …

The multivariate evolution of populations is the result of the interactions between natural
selection, drift, and the underlying genetic structure of the traits involved. Covariances …

The evolutionary trajectory of a population both influences and is influenced by
characteristics of its genome. A disjunct population, for example is likely to exhibit genomic …

Understanding how functional traits affect plant performance and fitness is a key step in
unravelling the role of natural selection in shaping the evolutionary trajectory of populations …

Adaptation to replicated environmental conditions can be remarkably predictable,
suggesting that parallel evolution may be a common feature of adaptive radiation. An open …
