No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2022-03-18; Urbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6169 populations in 160 cities globally.

Global urban environmental change drives adaptation in white clover
Santangelo, James S.; Ness, Rob W.; Cohan, Beata; Fitzpatrick, Connor R.; Innes, Simon G.; Koch, Sophie; Miles, Lindsay S.; Munim, SamreenUrbanization transforms environments in ways that alter biological evolution. We examined whether urban environmental change drives parallel evolution by sampling 110,019 white clover plants from 6,169 populations in 160 cities globally. Plants were assayed for a Mendelian antiherbivore defence that also affects tolerance to abiotic stressors. Urban-rural gradients were associated with the evolution of clines i...

Amézquita, Adolfo; Lima, Albertina Pimental; Jehle, Robert; Castellanos, Lina; Ramos, Óscar; Crawford, Andrew J.; Gasser, Herbert; Hödl, WalterEvolutionary divergence in behavioural traits related to mating may represent the initial stage of speciation. Direct selective forces are usually invoked to explain divergence in mate-recognition traits, often neglecting a role for neutral processes or concomitant differentiation in ecological traits. We adopted a multi-trait approach to obtain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms behind allopatric diverge...
