Patterns of phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation in the wide elevation range of the alpine plant Arabis alpina (2018, methodology): “Because individuals from diverse origins are grown in the same environment, common gardens allow to compare phenotypes of different populations without the confounding effect of phenotypic plasticity (Kawecki & Ebert, 2004; Savolainen et al., 2013).”
LFMM 2: Fast and Accurate Inference of Gene-Environment Associations in Genome-Wide Studies (2019, methodology): “Among those methods, gene-environment association (GEA) studies propose to test for correlation with ecological gradients in order to detect genomic signatures of local adaptation (Savolainen et al. 2013).”
Evolutionary history and underlying adaptation of alpine plants on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (2014, background): “For a species distributed along an altitudinal gradient, alleles at the adaptation locus should also change their frequencies accordingly (Savolainen et al., 2013).”
High-throughput linkage mapping of Australian white cypress pine (Callitris glaucophylla) and map transferability to related species (2015, background): “Localizing genomic regions associated with particular traits/environmental factors is one of the most important goals in ecological genomics, since it can provide insights into detailed picture of genome evolution and genetic architecture of adaptation of organisms (Savolainen et al. 2013).”
Applications of next-generation sequencing to the study of biological invasions (2015, background): “NGS has significantly increased the accessibility of sequencing and now genomics can be effectively combined with field experiments (Savolainen et al., 2013) and QTL mapping (Stinchcombe and Hoekstra, 2008; Lee et al., 2014).”
Climate-adjusted provenancing: a strategy for climate-resilient ecological restoration (2015, background): “Climate-adjusted provenancing contrasts with “predictive” provenancing (Crowe and Parker, 2008; Wang et al., 2010; Sgrò et al., 2011, Figure 1E), a strategy that similarly targets adaptation to climate.”
A practical guide to environmental association analysis in landscape genomics (2015, background): “Direct proof that a genetic variant actually leads to a fitness advantage in a local environment can only be obtained experimentally (Barrett & Hoekstra 2011; Savolainen et al. 2013).”
Plant speciation across environmental gradients and the occurrence and nature of hybrid zones (2017, background): “Following the development of high throughput sequencing, it has become possible to examine genetic responses to environmental gradients across the genome of a species, though the number of such studies currently remains small and limited to a handful of species (Savolainen et al., 2013).”
Mechanisms of Thermal Tolerance in Reef-Building Corals across a Fine-Grained Environmental Mosaic: Lessons from Ofu, American Samoa (2018, background): “Selection favors specific combinations of alleles that confer beneficial phenotypes (Savolainen et al., 2013) and patterns of local adaptation often reflect the thermal history of a given environment.”
The genomics of local adaptation in trees: are we out of the woods yet? (2017, methodology): “While our recommendations are specific to the tree community, we also acknowledge other valuable recommendations from recent reviews (e.g., Savolainen et al. 2013; Tiffin & Ross-Ibarra 2014; Lotterhos & Whitlock 2015; Gagnaire & Gaggiotti 2016; Hoban et al. 2016; Wellenreuther et al. 2016;…”
