The ecological importance of intraspecific variation [PDF]

open access: yesNature Ecology & Evolution, 2017
Human activity is causing wild populations to experience rapid trait change and local extirpation. The resulting effects on intraspecific variation could have substantial consequences for ecological processes and ecosystem services.

Effects of Diet and Intraspecific Scaling on the Viscera of Muraenid Fishes

Zoology, 2020
Diet has a strong influence on the morphology and physiology of vertebrates. Members of numerous fish clades have provided excellent comparative models for examining the effects of diet, primarily carnivory vs. herbivory, on organ systems. In this study, we comparatively examined the effects of carnivory, specifically independent evolutions of ...

The effect of competition on the neutral intraspecific diversity of invasive species

Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2014
This paper deals with the effect of interspecific competition on the dynamics of neutral genetic diversity in a range-expanding population. The spread of an invasive species in an environment already hosting a resident competitor is described by a traveling wave solution with minimal speed, u(t,x) = U(x - c ∗ t), of a diffusive Lotka-Volterra ...

Intraspecific priority effects and disease interact to alter population growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Intraspecific variation may shape colonization of new habitat patches through a variety of mechanisms. In particular, trait variation among colonizing individuals can produce intraspecific priority effects (IPEs), where early arrivers of a single species

Intraspecific competition in a reef coral: effects on growth and reproduction

Oecologia, 1985
Growth rates and reproduction of a branching coral (Stylophora pistillata) were compared in the presence and in the absence of intraspecific competition. Field experiments demonstrated a significant decline in the growth rate of competing colonies compared to noncompeting control colonies; the growth rate slowed in all of the interacting individuals ...

Effects of Intraspecific Interference on Maize Leaf Azimuth

Crop Science, 1994
Interception of solar irradiation by leaf canopies is influenced by the canopy architecture of crops, which is a function of shape, distribution, and orientation of the leaves that constitute the canopy. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that leaf azimuthal distribution in a maize (Zea mays L.) canopy is not influenced by plant ...

Human effects on intraspecific genetic diversity

2020
Intraspecific genetic diversity allows species to adapt and evolve in response to environmental disruptions and novel stressors. As the frequency and severity of environmental disturbances increases, species may be eroded of their evolutionary potential and unable to keep pace with their changing world.
