    DNA methylation in Arabidopsis has a genetic basis and shows evidence of local adaptation

    Manu J Dubin, Pei Zhang ... Magnus Nordborg
    The adaptation of Arabidopsis plants to the local environment is linked to DNA methylation.

    Local adaptation and archaic introgression shape global diversity at human structural variant loci

    Stephanie M Yan, Rachel M Sherman ... Rajiv C McCoy
    Graph genotyping of structural variation in diverse human populations reveals functional associations and signatures of local adaptation within poorly resolved regions of the genome.

    Fitness variation across subtle environmental perturbations reveals local modularity and global pleiotropy of adaptation

    Grant Kinsler, Kerry Geiler-Samerotte, Dmitri A Petrov
    A set of adaptive mutations affect only a small number of phenotypes that matter in the evolution condition, and yet contain substantial latent functional diversity revealed in distant environments.

    Rapid adaptation to malaria facilitated by admixture in the human population of Cabo Verde

    Iman Hamid, Katharine L Korunes ... Amy Goldberg
    Admixture-mediated adaptation to malaria in a human population demonstrates that detectible signatures in genomic patterns of ancestry can be leveraged to better characterize recent selection in populations with mixed ancestry.

    Data-driven, participatory characterization of farmer varieties discloses teff breeding potential under current and future climates

    Aemiro Bezabih Woldeyohannes, Sessen Daniel Iohannes ... Matteo Dell'Acqua
    A genomic, climatic, agronomic, and participatory characterization of teff agrobiodiversity shows opportunities and challenges of teff improvement in the face of climate change.

    Environment as a limiting factor of the historical global spread of mungbean

    Pei-Wen Ong, Ya-Ping Lin ... Cheng-Ruei Lee
    After domestication, the cultivation range expansion of crops was not solely dictated by human activity but instead constrained by climatic factors, which in turn resulted in distinct phenotypic characteristics of locally adaptive landraces.

    Vein fate determined by flow-based but time-delayed integration of network architecture

    Sophie Marbach, Noah Ziethen ... Karen Alim
    Relative hydraulic resistance, shear rate, and pressure in a vascular network integrate the network's architecture via fluid flow, and determine vein dynamics, with a time delay, in the prototypical organism Physarum polycephalum.

    Multiple alleles at a single locus control seed dormancy in Swedish Arabidopsis

    Envel Kerdaffrec, Danièle L Filiault ... Magnus Nordborg
    Natural variation for an adaptively important life history trait is largely due to variation at a single, major-effect locus with multiple alleles, demonstrating that not all complex traits are massively polygenic.

    Ecdysone steroid hormone remote controls intestinal stem cell fate decisions via the PPARγ-homolog Eip75B in Drosophila

    Lisa Zipper, Denise Jassmann ... Tobias Reiff
    A systemic hormone controls progenitor fate decisions independent of local fate determining pathways in the adult intestinal stem cell niche of Drosophila melanogaster..
