Potential for adaptation to climate change: family-level variation in fitness-related traits and their responses to heat waves in a snail population.

BMC evolutionary biology - 15 Jun 2017

Leicht Katja, Seppälä Katri, Seppälä Otto

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: On-going global climate change poses a serious threat for natural populations unless they are able to evolutionarily adapt to changing environmental conditions (e.g. increasing average temperatures, occurrence of extreme weather events). A prerequisite for evolutionary change is within-population heritable genetic variation in traits subject to selection. In relation to climate change, mainly...
