Abstract: Plant–microbe interactions in the phyllosphere provide invaluable information on plant ecology, with implications for ecosystem functioning and plant–atmosphere feedbacks. The composition of phyllosphere microbes varies significantly depending on host lineages, geographic regions, and climatic conditions.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/botlinnean/boae008
Abstract: Plants inhabiting contrasting physical conditions might develop local adaptations overriding the homogenizing effects of gene flow. Hypotheses of local adaptation on phenotypic, genomic, and environmental variation under extreme precipitation regimes were tested in the Patagonian… read more here.

Abstract: Environmental variation within a species' range can create contrasting selective pressures, leading to divergent selection and novel adaptations. The conservation value of populations inhabiting environmentally marginal areas remains in debate and is closely related to… read more here.
