Scientists and reef managers are calling for ‘assisted evolution’ to help accelerate coral reef adaptation in the face of ...
A new paper examines the possible effects of two properties of receiver playing fields documented in studies of animal psychology -- habituation and neural adaptation -- on the efficacy of mate choice ...
Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in understanding how genetic drivers influence the evolution of a specific photosynthesis mechanism in Tillandsia (air plants). This sheds light on the complex ...
Assisted evolution could help corals survive future heatwaves, but careful trait choice and strong repeated selection will be ...
