Environmental temperatures shape thermal physiology as well as diversification and genome-wide substitution rates in lizards

Environmental temperatures shape thermal physiology as well as diversification and genome-wide substitution rates in lizards

Predicted responses to climate change may be informed by evolutionary history. Here, the authors reconstruct the phylogeny of lacertid lizards and investigate how the evolution of this clade has varied with paleoclimates and how closely adapted extant species are to modern climates.
