Adaptation to Marginal Habitats [PDF]
The ability to adapt to marginal habitats, in which survival and reproduction are initially poor, plays a crucial role in the evolution of ecological niches and species ranges. Adaptation to marginal habitats may be limited by genetic, developmental, and functional constraints, but also by consequences of demographic characteristics of marginal ...

Diagnostics of the condition of marginal territories by lichen-indication methods [PDF]
The author’s definition of marginal territories is based on the principle of their uniqueness, specificity, and isolation. Marginal territories mean closed border areas located on the edge of districts or isolated areas in the center under the influence ...

Adaptation to marginal habitats by evolution of increased phenotypic plasticity [PDF]
AbstractIn an island population receiving immigrants from a larger continental population, gene flow causes maladaptation, decreasing mean fitness and producing continued directional selection to restore the local mean phenotype to its optimum. We show that this causes higher plasticity to evolve on the island than on the continent at migration ...

Ground beetles (Carabidae) of field margin habitats [PDF]
AbstractThe aim of this study was to identify the role of field margin habitats in preserving the diversity and abundance of ground beetle assemblages, including potentially entomophagous species and those with conservation status in Poland.Research material was collected in 2006–2007 in four types of margin habitats – a forest, bushes, ditches and in ...

Physiological responses of scleractinian corals in marginal habitat
Abstract. Polapa FS, Werorilangi S, Ali SM, Jompa J. 2021. Physiological responses of scleractinian corals in marginal habitat. Biodiversitas 22: 4011-4018. This study aims to analyze physiological differences in corals in marginal habitats. Under different conditions, the production/respiration (P/R) ratio and photobiology of various coral genera were

AbstractAgricultural intensification has significantly impacted habitat structures in agricultural landscapes and is one of the main drivers of biodiversity decline, especially in farmland birds. Birds are considered to reflect well the trends in other biodiversity elements and are therefore often used as indicator species.
