This study examines how climate change affects terpene expression in common tansy and its impact on herbivory across populations.

The paper evaluates expansion load and local adaptation in an invasive plant over 150 years of invasion, finding reduced fitness at range margins due to genetic drift and no evidence of local adaptation.

The paper uses satellite imagery and machine learning to track leafy spurge invasion over 21 years, showing a 570% expansion and improving species distribution models.

This study uses simulations to show that selfing rate can increase or decrease genetic load depending on recombination and mutation interactions, with a threshold selfing rate preventing pseudo-overdominance.
