Nutrient Addition Has a Stronger Effect Than Intraspecific Genetic Diversity on Critical Ecological Responses in a Salt Marsh Foundation Species [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Intraspecific genetic diversity in wild populations is declining as global change intensifies. Genetic variation within populations of foundation plant species may influence ecological responses to environmental stressors, but remains poorly understood ...

Individualistic responses of forest herb traits to environmental change [PDF]

, 2020
Intraspecific trait variation (ITV; i.e. variability in mean and/or distribution of plant attribute values within species) can occur in response to multiple drivers.

Does habitat stability structure intraspecific genetic diversity? It’s complicated... [PDF]

, 2020
Regional phylogeographic studies have long been conducted in the southeastern United States for a variety of species. With some exceptions, many of these studies focus on single species or single clades of organisms, and those considering multiple ...

Anthropogenic change decouples a freshwater predator’s density feedback

Scientific Reports, 2023
Intraspecific interactions within predator populations can affect predator–prey dynamics and community structure, highlighting the need to better understand how these interactions respond to anthropogenic change. To this end, we used a half-century (1969–

Landscape structure and population density affect intraspecific aggression in beavers

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Intraspecific competition plays an important role for territory acquisition and occupancy, in turn affecting individual fitness. Thus, understanding the drivers of intraspecific aggression can increase our understanding of population dynamics.

A direct comparison of the effects and mechanisms between species richness and genotype richness in a dominant species on multiple ecosystem functions

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Both species (interspecific) richness and genotype (intraspecific) richness of dominant species have significant effects on ecosystem functioning directly or indirectly by regulating plant community functional structure.

Assessing the Risk of Invasion by Tephritid Fruit Flies: Intraspecific Divergence Matters. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Widely distributed species often show strong phylogeographic structure, with lineages potentially adapted to different biotic and abiotic conditions.

Intraspecific trait variation and coordination: Root and leaf economics spectra in coffee across environmental gradients [PDF]

, 2017
Hypotheses on the existence of a universal “Root Economics Spectrum” (RES) have received arguably the least attention of all trait spectra, despite the key role root trait variation plays in resource acquisition potential.

Variation in wing morphology is related to breeding environment in a high‐elevation specialist bird

Journal of Avian Biology, 2022
The morphology of bird wings is subject to a variety of selective pressures, including migration, predation, habitat structure and sexual selection.

Gene duplication is the primary driver of intraspecific genomic divergence in coral algal symbionts

Open Biology, 2023
Dinoflagellates in the order Suessiales include the family Symbiodiniaceae, which have essential roles as photosymbionts in corals, and their cold-adapted sister group, Polarella glacialis.
