Study shows plant species' genetic responses to climate change

Physorg: A study by the University of Liverpool has found that the genetic diversity of wild plant species could be altered rapidly by anthropogenic climate change. Scientists studied the genetic responses of different wild plant species, located in a natural grassland ecosystem near Buxton, to a variety of simulated climate change treatments-including drought, watering, and warming-over a 15-year period. Analysis of DNA markers in the plants revealed that the climate change treatments had altered the...

As species adapt to a warming climate, ecosystems change
2015-07-18 15:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: If it seems like you're pulling more bass than trout out of Ontario's lakes this summer, you probably are. Blame it on the ripple effect of climate change and warming temperatures. Birds migrate earlier, flowers bloom faster, and fish move to newly warmed waters putting local species at risk. To mitigate the trend and support conservation efforts, scientists at the University of Toronto (U of T) are sharing a way to predict which plants or animals may be vulnerable to the arrival of a new species....
