Bet hedging is not sufficient to explain germination patterns of a winter annual plant

G.-F. Siegmund, D. A. Moeller, V. M. Eckhart, M. A. Geber

The paper tests if bet hedging explains germination patterns in Clarkia xantiana and finds it insufficient, showing no consistent trade-off between fitness metrics.

Evolutionary divergence of potential drought adaptations between two subspecies of an annual plant: Do some constraints need to be broken?

T. E. Burnette, V. M. Eckhart

This study compares drought adaptation traits between two subspecies of Clarkia xantiana and their recombinant inbred lines to assess genetic constraints and facilitation in trait evolution.

Additive genetic variance for lifetime fitness and the capacity for adaptation in an annual plant

M. W. Kulbba, S. N. Sheth, R. E. Pain, V. M. Eckhart, R. G. Shaw

The paper estimates additive genetic variance for lifetime fitness and its relation to adaptation capacity in wild Chamaecrista fasciculata populations over three years.

Biotic interactions limit the geographic range of an annual plant: herbivory and phenology mediate fitness beyond a range margin

J. Benning, V. M. Eckhart, M. A. Geber, D. A. Moeller

The paper investigates how herbivory and phenology affect the geographic range of Clarkia xantiana ssp. xantiana, showing herbivory reduces fitness beyond the range margin.
