Constraint to adaptive evolution in response to global warming.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 5 Oct 2001

Etterson J R, Shaw R G

Abstract excerpt

We characterized the genetic architecture of three populations of a native North American prairie plant in field conditions that simulate the warmer and more arid climates predicted by global climate models. Despite genetic variance for traits under selection, among-trait genetic correlations that are antagonistic to the direction of selection limit adaptive evolution within these populations. Predicted rates of...
