On Intraspecific and Interspecific Variation in Teleost Scleral Ossification [PDF]
The Anatomical Record, 2019 ABSTRACTScleral ossicles are bony elements found along the eyes of many fishes, amphibians, and reptiles. These bones provide a superficial layer of support to the eye and may facilitate visual acuity. Previous research has shown that scleral ossicle diversity is generally limited among teleosts, but that scleral ossicles have been lost numerous times ...

Grasses and the resource availability hypothesis: the importance of silica-based defences [PDF]
, 2007 The resource availability hypothesis (RAH) predicts that allocation of resources to anti-herbivore defences differs between species according to their growth rate.

Size dimorphism and directional selection in forest millipedes [PDF]
Arthropods, 2019 Sexual Size Dimorphism (SSD) in the diplopod genus Centrobolus has a positive correlation with body size. Length, width and rings are the main components of interspecific variation in diplopod species.

Inter‐ and intraspecific variation in mycotoxin tolerance: A study of four Drosophila species
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Many mycophagous Drosophila species have adapted to tolerate high concentrations of mycotoxins, an ability not reported in any other eukaryotes. Although an association between mycophagy and mycotoxin tolerance has been established in many Drosophila ...

Haplogenome assembly reveals structural variation in Eucalyptus interspecific hybrids
GigaScience, 2022 Abstract Background De novo phased (haplo)genome assembly using long-read DNA sequencing data has improved the detection and characterization of structural variants (SVs) in plant and animal genomes. Able to span across haplotypes, long reads allow phased, haplogenome assembly in highly outbred

Sexually size dimorphic brains and song complexity in passerine birds [PDF]
, 2004 Neural correlates of bird song involve the volume of particular song nuclei in the brain that govern song development, production, and perception. Intra- and interspecific variation in the volume of these song nuclei are associated with overall brain ...

Ecological Opportunity In Adaptive Radiation Of Galapagos Endemic Land Snails [PDF]
, 2009 The classic evolutionary hypothesis of ecological opportunity proposes that both heterogeneity of resources and freedom from enemies promote phenotypic divergence as a response to increased niche availability.

PLoS ONE, 2016 Understanding how communities respond to environmental variation is a central goal in ecology. Plant communities respond to environmental gradients via intraspecific and/or interspecific variation in plant functional traits.

Conventional niche overlap measurements are not effective for assessing interspecific competition
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Interspecific competition is notoriously difficult to detect and quantify, especially in species that are wide-ranging or otherwise difficult to track in the wild.
