Degrees of change: between and within population variation in thermal reaction norms of phenology in a viviparous lizard

Cunningham, George D.; While, Geoffrey M.; Olsson, Mats; Ljungström, Anna Jeja Gabriella; Wapstra, Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)

As the earth warms, populations will be faced with novel environments to which they may not be adapted. In the short term, populations can be buffered against the negative effects, or maximize the beneficial effects, of ...
Quantitative genetics of breeding coloration in sand lizards; genic capture unlikely to maintain additive genetic variance

Lindsay, Willow R.; Bererhi, Badreddine; Ljungström, Anna Jeja Gabriella; Wapstra, Erik; Olsson, Mats (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)

Sexual selection on fitness-determining traits should theoretically erode genetic variance and lead to low heritability. However, many sexually selected traits maintain significant phenotypic and additive genetic variance, ...
