TL;DR: A meta-analysis focussing on birds suggests that global warming has not systematically affected morphological traits, but has advanced phenological traits and indicates that the evolutionary load imposed by incomplete adaptive responses to ongoing climate change may already be threatening the persistence of species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal and genetic factors determine early life telomere length.
TL;DR: This study analysed telomere length measured early in life in both parents and offspring and applied statistical models (so-called ‘animal models') that are based on long-term pedigree data, which revealed a significant heritability and an equally large maternal effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating heritabilities and genetic correlations: comparing the 'animal model' with parent-offspring regression using data from a natural population.
TL;DR: This study is to the authors' knowledge the most comprehensive empirical evaluation of the performance of the animal model in relation to parent-offspring regressions in a wild population using data on eight morphological traits in the great reed warbler.
Journal ArticleDOI
Annual cycle and migration strategies of a trans-Saharan migratory songbird: A geolocator study in the great reed warbler
Hilger W. Lemke,Maja Tarka,Raymond H. G. Klaassen,Mikael Åkesson,Staffan Bensch,Dennis Hasselquist,Bengt Hansson +6 more
TL;DR: All males had a high migration speed in spring despite large variation in departure dates, indicating a time-minimization strategy to achieve an early arrival at the breeding site; the latter being decisive for high reproductive success in great reed warblers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing Multivariate Constraints to Evolution across Ten Long-Term Avian Studies.

TL;DR: The results suggest that genetic correlations can impose significant constraints on the evolution of avian morphology in wild populations, which could have important impacts on evolutionary dynamics and hence population persistence in the face of rapid environmental change.
