Decades of research have illuminated the underlying ingredients that determine the scope
of evolutionary responses to climate change. The field of evolutionary biology therefore …

Phylogenetic comparative methods are important tools in biology, providing insights into the
way traits evolve. There are many technical resources describing how these methods work …

The degree to which developmental biases affect trait evolution is subject to much debate.
Here, we first quantify fluctuating asymmetry as a measure of developmental variability, ie …

Heritable variation is a prerequisite for evolutionary change, but the relevance of genetic
constraints on macroevolutionary timescales is debated. By using two datasets on fossil and …

Abstract Background and Aims Morphological matching between flower and pollinator traits
has been documented in diverse plant lineages. Indeed, the matching of corolla tube length …

Agricultural intensification at field and landscape scales, including increased use of
agrochemicals and loss of semi‐natural habitats, is a major driver of insect declines and …

The relationship between the evolutionary dynamics observed in contemporary populations
(microevolution) and evolution on timescales of millions of years (macroevolution) has been …

Premise What maintains mixed mating is an evolutionary enigma. Cleistogamy—the
production of both potentially outcrossing chasmogamous and obligately selfing …

The extraordinary diversity and adaptive fit of organisms to their environment depends
fundamentally on the availability of variation. While most population genetic frameworks …

Mutualistic ecological networks can suddenly transition to undesirable states due to small
changes in environmental conditions. Recovering from such a collapse can be difficult as …
