AbstractIt is generally assumed that populations of the same species should evolve shared mechanisms of adaptation to common stressors due to evolutionary constraint. Here, we describe a novel system of within-species local adaptation to coastal habitats, Brassica fruticulosa, and detail surprising mechanistic variability in adaptive responses to extreme salinity.

1. IntroductionRice is a staple food for more than half of the world’s population. It belongs to the genus Oryza which includes two independently domesticated species, Oryza sativa (Asian rice) and Oryza glaberrima (African rice). Most of the cultivated rice varieties belong to the O. sativa group which comprises indica and japonica subspecies [1]. Whereas indica varieties are mainly cultivated in tropical environments, japonica subspecies are grown in temperate regions. O.

AbstractMore than 70% of land's cultivated area is affected by alkaline salinity stress. As 98% of plants are glycophytes, our previous research focused on comparative studies of Arabidopsis thaliana demes with adaptive performance under neutral and alkaline salinity.

New Results doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.02.05.527167 AbstractMore than 70% of land's cultivated area is affected by alkaline salinity stress. Our previous research focused on comparative studies of Arabidopsis thaliana demes with differential performance under neutral (neuSAL) and alkaline salinity (alkSAL) due to local adaptation.
