Structural variants underlie parallel adaptation following global invasion

This study identifies large structural variants as drivers of parallel adaptation in Trifolium repens during global invasion.

Plants cultivated for ecosystem restoration can evolve towards a domestication syndrome

This study shows that wild plants cultivated for restoration can evolve domestication-like traits in few generations, but changes are generally moderate and vary between species and cultivation lineages.

Parental environmental effects are common and strong, but unpredictable, in Arabidopsis thaliana

This study shows that parental environmental effects are common and strong in Arabidopsis thaliana but are genotype-dependent and unpredictable across different stress treatments.

Evolution during seed production for ecological restoration? A molecular analysis of 19 species finds only minor genomic changes

This study examines genetic changes in 19 grassland species during seed cultivation for ecological restoration and finds minimal genetic drift and increased gene diversity.

Plant provenance affects pollinator network: implications for ecological restoration

This study shows that plant provenance affects pollinator interactions, highlighting the need to consider provenance in ecological restoration projects.

Microclimate predicts frost-hardiness of alpine Arabidopsis thaliana populations better than altitude because the microclimate effect increases with altitude

The paper finds that microclimate, not altitude, better predicts frost-hardiness in alpine Arabidopsis thaliana populations because microclimate effects intensify with altitude.

Ecological plant epigenetics: Evidence from model and non-model species, and the way forward

The paper reviews epigenetic contributions to plant ecology and proposes integrating model-species research with non-model species studies to better understand ecological processes.
