Adaptation to seasonal drought in <i>Arabis alpina</i> is linked to the demographic history and climatic changes since the last glacial maximum

2025-09-12

Abstract excerpt

Understanding how species adapt to new environments is a central goal in evolutionary biology, and a topical question in climate change research. Here, we sequenced the genomes of 426 individuals of the perennial, Arctic-alpine herb Arabis alpina to study demography and adaptation, with a focus on populations in Northern Spain, that experience warm and dry summers. Our inference supports a scenario in which A. a...
