The paper shows that niche differentiation enables coexistence among early diverging lineages of duckweed before speciation completes, suggesting ecological factors influence speciation.

The paper shows that range-edge populations can adapt to warming only when evolving with interspecific competitors, enabling both high-temperature tolerance and broader thermal performance.

This study tests if interspecific competition during range expansion leads to pushed wave dynamics and alters evolutionary patterns in duckweed species.

This study shows evolutionary rescue in wild populations during extreme drought by linking genetic variation to population recovery.

The study examines genetic diversity in an alpine plant during post-glacial range expansion and finds no decrease in genetic diversity, suggesting dispersal limitation is not a major factor in colonization dynamics.

This study shows transgenerational plasticity (TGP) can reflect local adaptation but does not consistently enhance fitness, and its effect can surpass allelic and plasticity effects.

The paper investigates how historical range expansion influences spatial patterns in plant reproductive assurance by analyzing genetic and reproductive data from a focal species.

The paper uses a seed addition experiment to test lagged climate responses and microclimatic buffering in plant range shifts, finding support for lagged responses over microclimatic buffering.

This study examines how heat stress affects genetic variation in resource acquisition traits in duckweeds, finding increased R* values and reduced genetic variation under high temperatures.

This study shows that range expansion is slower and more variable with rapid evolution across a temperature gradient, challenging current theory about predictability.

The paper examines how biotic interactions influence local adaptation across latitudes, finding they affect fitness but only strongly drive adaptation in tropical regions.

This study finds that genetic differentiation in Clarkia pulchella is driven by geographic distance rather than climate, with distinct genetic groups at range edges and admixture in central populations.
