A trait-based framework for dung beetle functional ecology. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol, 2023
Traits are key for understanding the environmental responses and ecological roles of organisms. Trait approaches to functional ecology are well established for plants, whereas consistent frameworks for animal groups are less developed.

Widespread variation in functional trait–vital rate relationships in tropical tree seedlings across a precipitation and soil phosphorus gradient [PDF]

, 2022
A fundamental assumption of functional ecology is that functional traits are related to interspecific variation in performance. However, the relationship between functional traits and performance is often weak or uncertain, especially for plants.

The ecology of stress: a marriage of disciplines [PDF]

, 2013
In vertebrates, a key response to life’s difficulties is the activation of the stress axis. The study of this axis is one of the best windows we have to ‘see’ under the surface of the animal into the functional mechanisms it uses to cope.

Going across taxa in functional ecology: Review and perspectives of an emerging field

, 2023
The emergence of functional ecology has changed the focus of ecological research from investigating patterns of species diversity to understanding how species traits relate to specific ecological processes generating these patterns.
