The EICA-hypothesis predicts that invading plants adapt to their novel environment by evolving increased performance and reduced resistance in response to the release from natural enemies, and assumes ...

Evolutionary ecology encompasses the study of how evolutionary processes―such as natural selection, mutation, and genetic drift―interact with ecological dynamics to shape the diversity, distribution, ...

A recent study has revealed the genetic mechanisms behind transgenerational phenotypic plasticity—a crucial factor in plant adaptation to environmental changes. By investigating Arabidopsis thaliana ...
