A recent study provided additional evidence that sticklebacks have one of the fastest evolutionary responses in wild populations, which could make them particularly resilient to changes in water temperature. University of British Columbia researcher Rowan Barrett and colleagues in Switzerland and Sweden reported on the results of experiments demonstrated that, in little as three years, freshwater sticklebacks developed tolerance for water temperatures 2.5 degrees Celsius lower than their ancestors.  MORE >>
