Horticulturae, 2022 Plant physiological responses to various stresses are characterized by interaction and coupling, while the intrinsic mechanism remains unclear. The effects of intraspecific competition on plant growth, stomatal opening, and hormone concentrations were ...

THE CONDITIONS FOR SPECIATION THROUGH INTRASPECIFIC COMPETITION [PDF]
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 2006 It has been shown theoretically that sympatric speciation can occur if intraspecific competition is strong enough to induce disruptive selection. However, the plausibility of the involved processes is under debate, and many questions on the conditions for speciation remain unresolved.

Ecology Letters, 2018 Abstract Theory predicts that intraspecific competition should be stronger than interspecific competition for any pair of stably coexisting species, yet previous literature reviews found little support for this pattern. We screened over 5400 publications and identified 39 studies that quantified phenomenological intraspecific and ...

Ant Mortality with Food Competition in Forests along a Temperature Gradient
Insects, 2022 The authors elucidated the relationship between temperature and mortality due to food competition in ant communities in forests. A field experiment was conducted using four bait types at six different oak forest sites with different mean annual ...

Spatial heterogeneity in light supply affects intraspecific competition of a stoloniferous clonal plant. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Spatial heterogeneity in light supply is common in nature. Many studies have examined the effects of heterogeneous light supply on growth, morphology, physiology and biomass allocation of clonal plants, but few have tested those effects on intraspecific ...

Shift in competitive ability mediated by soil biota in an invasive plant
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Understanding the shifts in competitive ability and its driving forces is key to predict the future of plant invasion. Changes in the competition environment and soil biota are two selective forces that impose remarkable influences on competitive ability.

Intraspecific competition for host resources in a parasite
Current Biology, 2021 Intraspecific competition among parasites should, in theory, increase virulence, but we lack clear evidence of this from nature.1-3 Parasitic plants, which are sessile and acquire carbon-based resources through both autotrophy (photosynthesis) and heterotrophy (obtaining carbon from the host), provide a unique opportunity to experimentally study the ...
