The role of phenotypic plasticity in evolution has historically been a contentious issue because
of debate over whether plasticity shields genotypes from selection or generates novel …

To determine whether premenopausal daughters of women with postmenopausal osteoporosis
have lower bone mass than other women of the same age, we measured the bone …

Genomic data have the potential to revolutionize the delineation of conservation units (CUs)
by allowing the detection of adaptive genetic variation, which is otherwise difficult for rare, …

In plant conservation, restoration (the augmentation or reestablishment of an extinct
population or community) is a valuable tool to mitigate the loss of habitat. However, restoration …

Molecular markers appear to be poor indicators of heritable variation in adaptive traits. Direct
comparison of population structure in markers with that in traits is made possible by the …

We describe 2b-RAD, a streamlined restriction site–associated DNA (RAD) genotyping
method based on sequencing the uniform fragments produced by type IIB restriction …

The global loss of biodiversity continues at an alarming rate. Genomic approaches have
been suggested as a promising tool for conservation practice as scaling up to genome-wide …

Conspicuous differences in floral morphology are partly responsible for reproductive isolation
between two sympatric species of monkeyflower because of their effect on visitation of the …

We examined patterns of genetic variance and covariance in two traits (i) carbon stable isotope
ratio δ 13 C (dehydration avoidance) and (ii) time to flowering (drought escape), both of …

… John McKay's study, based largely on intensive research in numerous archives and utilizing
many previously unexplored private business records, is the first detailed analysis of the …
