Trait dimensionality explains widespread variation in local adaptation.
All species are locked in a continual struggle to adapt to local ecological conditions. In cases where species fail to locally adapt, they face reduced population growth rates, or even local extinction. Traditional explanations for limited local adaptation focus on maladaptive gene flow or homogeneous environmental conditions. These classical explanations have, however, failed to explain variat...

متن کاملLocal adaptation across a climatic gradient despite small effective population size in the rare sapphire rockcress.
When assigning conservation priorities in endangered species, two common management strategies seek to protect remnant populations that (i) are the most genetically divergent or (ii) possess the highest diversity at neutral genetic markers. These two approaches assume that variation in molecular markers reflects variation in ecologically important traits and ignore the possibility of local adap...
متن کاملPrevailing Negative Soil Biota Effect and No Evidence for Local Adaptation in a Widespread Eurasian Grass
BACKGROUND Soil biota effects are increasingly accepted as an important driver of the abundance and distribution of plants. While biogeographical studies on alien invasive plant species have indicated coevolution with soil biota in their native distribution range, it is unknown whether adaptation to soil biota varies among populations within the native distribution range. The question of local ...
متن کامل1 Using connectivity to identify climatic drivers of local adaptation 2
33 Despite being able to conclusively demonstrate local adaptation, we are still often 34 unable to objectively determine the climatic drivers of local adaptation. Given the 35 rapid rate of global change, understanding the climatic drivers of local adaptation is 36 vital. Not only will this tell us which climate axes matter most to population fitness, 37 but such knowledge is critical to infor...
