The effect of population size on adaptation to fluctuating temperatures

This study examines how population size affects adaptation to fluctuating temperatures in fission yeast, finding no significant impact on adaptation or trade-offs.

Genome-wide association mapping for growth rate at fluctuating and extreme temperatures

This study uses genome-wide association mapping to investigate thermal adaptation in Neurospora crassa, finding polygenic thermal tolerance with no significant trade-offs between fluctuating and constant temperatures.

Genome-wide association for loci influencing thermal performance curves in Neurospora crassa

This study identifies loci influencing thermal performance curves in Neurospora crassa and finds weak evidence of trade-offs between alleles at different temperatures.

Marked Neurospora crassa strains for competition experiments and Bayesian methods for fitness estimates

The paper constructs marked Neurospora crassa strains and develops a Bayesian method to estimate fitness in competition experiments, showing fitness differences related to mating type and a qde-2 mutation.

Effects of acclimation time and epigenetic mechanisms on growth of Neurospora in fluctuating environments

The paper examines how acclimation time and epigenetic mechanisms affect Neurospora crassa growth in fluctuating temperatures, finding that acclimation time improves predictions but epigenetic effects are limited.

Epigenetic control of phenotypic plasticity in a filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa

This study investigates how epigenetic mechanisms influence phenotypic plasticity in Neurospora crassa across different environments, showing context-dependent effects of histone methylation and RNA interference.
