The Ecology and Genetics of Microbial Diversity

Annual Review of Microbiology, 2004
▪ Abstract  Natural communities of microbes are often diverse, a fact that is difficult to reconcile with the action of natural selection in simple, uniform environments. We suggest that this apparent paradox may be resolved by considering the origin and fate of diversity in an explicitly ecological context. Here, we review insights into the ecological

The Ecological Genetics of Conditional Strategies

The American Naturalist, 2004
We develop a quantitative genetic model for conditional strategies that incorporates the ecological realism of previous strategic models. Similar to strategic models, the results show that environmental heterogeneity, cue reliability, and environment-dependent fitness trade-offs for the alternative tactics of the conditional strategy interact to ...

The Ecology of Genetically Diverse Infections

Science, 2001
Microparasite infections often consist of genetically distinct clonal lineages. Ecological interactions between these lineages within hosts can influence disease severity, epidemiology, and evolution. Many medical and veterinary interventions have an impact on genetic diversity within infections, but there is little understanding of the long-term ...

GENETICS AND ECOLOGY OF WHALES AND DOLPHINS

Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1994
Cetacean species are widely distributed in the world's oceans, and their populations are impacted by human activity both directly through hunting and indirectly. The determination of genetic stock boundaries and genetic diversity within stocks is essential to the conservation of genetic diversity in these as in any other species, but cetaceans present ...

Population and Ecological Genetics in Restoration Ecology

2016
Genetic diversity is the basis for adaptive evolution in all living organisms. Heritable differences among individuals influence how they interact with the physical environment and other species, and how they function within ecosystems. Genetic composition affects ecologically important form and function of organisms, including body size, shape ...

Ecological Constraints on Genetic Engineering

1984
The aim of this paper is to present, briefly to be sure, the views of a microbial ecologist with a strong practical bent. These views, I believe, have relevance to genetic engineering to control environmental pollutants. I shall point out several ways by which the chances of success can be increased and some of the problems that may be encountered.
