Sex differences are predicted to play an important role in the spread and evolution of pathogens. However, attempts to generalize the “sicker” sex have been challenged by intraspecific variability of sex biases across the infection process. Sex‐specific plasticity provides a framework to resolve this by elucidating how infection is shaped at the sex‐pathogen‐environment interface. Using the Daphnia magna and Pasteuria ramosa s...

An understanding of thermal limits and variation across geographic regions is central to predicting how any population may respond to global change. Latitudinal clines, in particular, have been used to demonstrate that populations can be locally adapted to their own thermal environment and, as a result, not all populations will be equally impacted by an increase in temperature. But how robust are these signals of thermal adapt...
