Genomic Landscape of High‐Altitude Adaptation in East African Mountain Honey Bees ( <span> <i>Apis mellifera</i> </span> ) Open
Understanding the evolutionary processes leading to differentiation within species is a central goal in population biology. A key process is local adaptation, for which organisms evolve traits enhancing the survival and reproduction in spe…

A major trade-off between growth and defense in Arabidopsis thaliana can vanish in field conditions Open
When wild plants defend themselves from pathogens, this often comes with a trade-off: the same genes that protect a plant from disease can also reduce its growth and fecundity in the absence of pathogens. One protein implicated in a major …

Deleterious phenotypes in wild <i>Arabidopsis arenosa</i> populations are common and linked to runs of homozygosity Open
In this study, we aimed to systematically assess the frequency at which potentially deleterious phenotypes appear in natural populations of the outcrossing model plant Arabidopsis arenosa, and to establish their underlying genetics. For th…

Standing genetic variation fuels rapid evolution of herbicide resistance in blackgrass Open
Repeated herbicide applications in agricultural fields exert strong selection on weeds such as blackgrass ( Alopecurus myosuroides ), which is a major threat for temperate climate cereal crops. This inadvertent selection pressure provides …

Deep haplotype analyses of target‐site resistance locus <i>ACCase</i> in blackgrass enabled by pool‐based amplicon sequencing Open
Summary Rapid adaptation of weeds to herbicide applications in agriculture through resistance development is a widespread phenomenon. In particular, the grass Alopecurus myosuroides is an extremely problematic weed in cereal crops with the…

Standing genetic variation fuels rapid evolution of herbicide resistance in blackgrass Open
Repeated herbicide applications exert enormous selection on blackgrass ( Alopecurus myosuroides ), a major weed in cereal crops of the temperate climate zone including Europe. This inadvertent large-scale experiment gives us the opportunit…

Combining whole-genome shotgun sequencing and rRNA gene amplicon analyses to improve detection of microbe–microbe interaction networks in plant leaves Open
Microorganisms from all domains of life establish associations with plants. Although some harm the plant, others antagonize pathogens or prime the plant immune system, support the acquisition of nutrients, tune plant hormone levels, or per…

Hybridization ddRAD‐sequencing for population genomics of nonmodel plants using highly degraded historical specimen DNA Open
Species’ responses at the genetic level are key to understanding the long‐term consequences of anthropogenic global change. Herbaria document such responses, and, with contemporary sampling, provide high‐resolution time‐series of plant evo…

Stability of association between<i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i>and<i>Pseudomonas</i>pathogens over evolutionary time scales Open
Summary Crop disease outbreaks are often associated with clonal expansions of single pathogenic lineages. To determine whether similar boom-and-bust scenarios hold for wild plant pathogens, we carried out a multi-year multi-site survey of …

The gold standard for studying natural selection and adaptation in the wild is to quantify lifetime fitness of individuals from natural populations that have been grown together in a common garden, or that have been reciprocally transplant…
