Morning glory with bee (IMAGE)
Caption
A bee crawls into the flower of morning glory. Sasha Bishop, a recent graduate of University of MIchigan researcher Regina Baucom, studied the declining rates of adaptation in morning glories, finding that morning glories may be adapting to attract pollinators at the expense of adapting to a warming climate. This trade-off may be leading to an overall decline in rate of adaptation.
