Phenotypic plasticity in response to the social environment: effects of density and sex ratio on mating behaviour following ecotype divergence. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 The ability to express phenotypically plastic responses to environmental cues might be adaptive in changing environments. We studied phenotypic plasticity in mating behaviour as a response to population density and adult sex ratio in a freshwater isopod (

Effects of Toxic Concentrations of Cadmium, Lead, or Zinc on Leaf Morphology, Anatomy and Calcium Oxalate Content in Metallicolous and Non-Metallicolous Ecotypes of Dianthus carthusianorum L. [PDF]
PlantsTolerance to metals develops independently across plant species and even among populations of the same species under strong environmental pressure. This study compares the morphology and leaf anatomy of Dianthus carthusianorum L. originating from a Zn–Pb

Ecotypic Identity and Manipulated Rainfall Modulate Diversity‐Productivity Relationships Across a Precipitation Gradient [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionUnderstanding the context‐dependent nature of diversity‐productivity relationships is essential for predicting community responses to environmental change and informing restoration strategies.

Genetic relationship and pedigree of Chinese watermelon varieties based on diversity of perfect SNPs
Horticultural Plant Journal, 2022 Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is one of the world's most important fruit crops, and China produces the most watermelons in the world. Recently, a watermelon variome consisting of 414 key resequenced accessions was reported.

New Phytologist, 1946 The ecotype concept (Turesson, 1922) is a population concept, and by definition an ecotype is an intraspecific product of environmental selection arising as a result of genotypic response to a particular habitat. Accordingly, before a population qualifies for ecotype status, a relationship must be demonstrated between its heredity and the prevailing ...

Highly replicated evolution of parapatric ecotypes [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2020 Abstract Parallel evolution of ecotypes occurs when selection independently drives the evolution of similar traits across similar environments. The multiple origin of ecotypes is often inferred on the basis of a phylogeny which clusters populations according to geographic location and not by the environment they ...
