PhD Seasonal Timing of Egg Overwintering Insects under Climate Change
Climate change is exerting strong selection on wild populations, with many species showing shifts in the seasonal timing of development. One particularly vulnerable group are insect species that overwinter as eggs, with warmer winters leading to stronger population declines compared to other insect species. To predict whether insect populations can adapt to climate change, we need to know the amount of genetic variation in egg development time. -

From stress to success: rapid evolution as a survival strategy against environmental stressors
When you think of evolution, you probably think of Darwin, timescales of millions of years and dinosaurs. But there is also rapid evolution, microevolution, a way in which organisms can quickly adapt to changes in their environment. This is becoming increasingly important for the survival of species, in view of climate change and other human disturbances in ecosystems.
