A change in climate causes rapid evolution of multiple life-history traits and their interactions in an annual plant.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Sept 2008

Franks S J, Weis A E

Abstract excerpt

Climate change is likely to spur rapid evolution, potentially altering integrated suites of life-history traits. We examined evolutionary change in multiple life-history traits of the annual plant Brassica rapa collected before and after a recent 5-year drought in southern California. We used a direct approach to examining evolutionary change by comparing ancestors and descendants. Collections were made from two...
