Seasonal camouflage as a model to understand the scope for rapid adaptation in a changing world

2026-01-23

Abstract excerpt

Human-driven environmental change is reshaping ecosystems and challenging species’ ability to adapt. Understanding how genetic variation enables adaptation is crucial for conservation and requires exemplary systems to test hypotheses and make predictions. One particularly suitable model for studying climate-driven adaptation is seasonal color change (SCC), a phenological trait in which individuals transition betwe...
