More from my PhD to follow in the next months! Give it a read if you're into alpine plants or elevational ranges! academic.oup.com/evlett/advan...

We sought to uncover the extent of alignment across scales by sampling the elevational ranges of seven Brassicaceae species. Additionally, we also tried understand which traits (or trait syndromes) are putatively involved in adaptation, based on parallel clines and alignment across taxonomic scales

Much of what we know about trait-environment relationships comes from global datasets, but these do not hold at smaller scales (see also nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...). Plenty of eco-evolutionary processes can contribute to inconsistencies in trait-environment assoc across studies.
Why can't we predict traits from the environment?
Plant functional traits are powerful ecological tools, but the relationships between plant traits and climate (or environmental variables more broadly) are often remarkably weak. This presents a para...

At the same time, we made thousands of synonymous mutations in endogenous yeast genes and measured their growth. We used careful statistics and controls. Only 3%, 204 of 6874, had a fitness effect! This goes against a controversial recent result that most synonymous mutations had fitness effects.
