Geothermal stickleback populations prefer cool water despite multigenerational exposure to a warm environment

The paper tests if geothermal stickleback populations exposed to warm environments prefer warmer temperatures, finding no shift in preferred temperature despite long-term exposure.

Testing the predictability of morphological evolution in contrasting thermal environments

This study shows that morphological responses to temperature changes can be predictable in populations with limited gene flow, but less so when gene flow is present.

Multigenerational exposure to elevated temperatures leads to a reduction in standard metabolic rate in the wild

This study shows that multigenerational exposure to elevated temperatures reduces standard metabolic rate in sticklebacks, with genetic divergence influenced by gene flow between thermal habitats.

Intercontinental genomic parallelism in multiple adaptive radiations

The paper quantifies genomic parallelism across four adaptive radiations of sticklebacks, showing environmental and genetic factors influence parallel evolution.

Repeatability of adaptive radiation depends on spatial scale: regional versus global replicates of stickleback in lake versus stream habitats

This study examines how the repeatability of adaptive radiation in stickleback fish varies with spatial scale, finding greater parallel evolution at regional than global scales.
