Canadian researchers have observed how a species of fish evolves adapts to extreme environmental changes in real time, and say that their work might be key to understanding how species might be able to adapt to as the effects of climate change continue to increase in severity,
As described in a study published in March, researchers from McGill University looked at six populations of threespine stickleback, a species of fish that is found in California, and sought out to observe natural selection happen in real-time. Using genome sequencing, they measured genetic changes in the populations as they were exposed to different environments.
