PREMISE: Cold tolerance is an important factor limiting the geographic distribution and growing season for many plant species, yet few studies have examined variation in cold tolerance extensively within and among closely related species and compared

Retrogressive thaw slumps (RTS) are large (> 1 ha) depressions of exposed mineral soil on hillslopes caused by the thaw and displacement of ice-rich permafrost soils in high-latitude regions; since the 1980s the number of RTS observed on Alaska’s N

Premise of the study : Environmental heterogeneity is thought to be one of the primary factors in the evolutionary maintenance of morphological variation. Here, we explore the role of environmental heterogeneity in the maintenance of variation in

Although a large portion of plant and animal species exhibit intermediate levels of outcrossing, the factors that maintain this wealth of variation are not well understood. Natural enemies are one relatively understudied ecological factor that may in

UNLABELLED • PREMISE OF THE STUDY Cold tolerance is a critically important factor determining how plants will be influenced by climate change, including changes in snowcover and extreme weather events. Although a great deal is known about cold tole

The diverse features of floral morphology are often thought to be well-designed mechanisms to manipulate plant mating systems. We evaluated the effectiveness of one such mechanism, anther-stigma separation (herkogamy), in controlling variation in the

A functional view of gender helps evolutionary biologists evaluate the mechanisms underlying breeding-system evolution. Evolutionary pathways from hermaphroditism to dioecy include the intermediate breeding systems of gynodioecy and androdioecy. Thes

Gene flow from transgenic crops can introduce novel traits into related spe- cies, but the ecological importance of this process is unknown. Here, we report the first empirical evidence that wild plants can benefit from a bacterial transgene under un

Genome doubling and changes in genome size are fundamental evolutionary processes. Arabidopsis kamchatica has been reported to contain both diploid and tetraploid individuals (2 or 4 copies of every chromosome). We did find genome size differences am

Natural hybridization threatens a substantial number of plant and animal species with extinction, but extinction risk has been difficult to evaluate in the absence of a quantitative assessment of risk factors. We investigated a number of ecological p
