Acknowledging uncertainty in evolutionary reconstructions of ecological niches
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Reconstructing ecological niche evolution can provide insight into the biogeography and diversification of evolving lineages. However, comparative phylogenetic methods may infer the history of ecological niche evolution inaccurately because (a) species ...

Ecological niche overlap among species of the genus Zaluzania (Asteraceae) from the dry regions of Mexico [PDF]
Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Background and aims – The hypothesis of ecological niche conservatism postulates that closely related species share ecologically similar environments; that is, they tend to maintain the characteristics of their fundamental niche over time.

Niche occupation limits adaptive radiation in experimental microcosms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Adaptive radiations have played a key role in the evolution of biological diversity. The breadth of adaptive radiation in an invading lineage is likely to be influenced by the availability of ecological niches, which will be determined to some extent by ...

Nature, 1946 A SUPERB example illustrating the ecological niche is afforded by the distribution of the plankton copepod Limnocalanus macrurus, a freshwater relict derived from the marine arctic species L. Grimaldii. The animal has an upper temperature limit of 14° C, and a lower limit of dissolved oxygen of 4 c.c./l. oxygen.

Genecological aspects of air pollution effects on northern forests.
Silva Fennica, 1981 Natural forest tree populations are adapted to their natural environment. Forest tree species under northern conditions are at the edge of their range where the short growing season and the low winter temperatures are the two main factors limiting their ...
