This study tests assisted gene flow in Mimulus guttatus populations, finding fitness changes in some populations and suggesting climate fluctuations affect its success.

This study uses herbarium genomics to analyze the invasion history of Trifolium repens, revealing multiple introductions, lineage turnover, and admixture that increased genetic diversity and facilitated adaptation.

This study investigates how drought, herbivory, and local climate influence cyanogenesis cline formation and local adaptation in white clover through a field experiment.

This study shows white clover adapts rapidly to climate in both native and introduced ranges but lags behind climate change in the introduced range.

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

This study compares drought resistance strategies in native and introduced white clover populations, finding introduced populations better at avoiding dehydration but worse at tolerating it.
