Phenotypic plasticity may help species to persist in the face of rapid change, yet we lack a
management-friendly framework for incorporating plasticity into conservation practice. Here …

Better understanding of the mechanistic basis of plant plasticity will enhance efforts to breed
crops resilient to predicted climate change. However, complexity in plasticity's …

Understanding the causes and limits of population divergence in phenotypic traits is a
fundamental aim of evolutionary biology, with the potential to yield predictions of adaptation …

To forecast extinction risks of natural populations under climate change and direct human
impacts, an integrative understanding of both phenotypic plasticity and adaptive evolution is …

Transgenerational stress memory transferred from parents to offspring may enable plants to
respond to changing environments rapidly. Yet transgenerational adaptive effects and …

Population ecologists develop theoretical and pragmatic knowledge of how and why
populations change or remain stable, how life histories evolve and devise management …

Abstract Background and Aims Determining within-species large-scale variation in
phenotypic traits is central to elucidate the drivers of species' ranges. Intraspecific …

Our understanding of plant functional trait variation among populations and how this relates
to local adaptation to environmental conditions is largely shaped by above‐ground traits …

Premise Genetic variation influences the potential for evolution to rescue populations from
impacts of environmental change. Most studies of genetic variation in fitness‐related traits …

Plants growing outside their native range may be confronted by new regimes of herbivory,
but how this affects plant chemical defence profiles has rarely been studied. Using Plantago …
