Long‐term dynamics of a cladoceran community from an early stage of lake formation in Lake Fukami‐ike, Japan

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
An increase in nutrient levels due to eutrophication has considerable effects on lake ecosystems. Cladocerans are intermediate consumers in lake ecosystems; thus, they are influenced by both the bottom‐up and top‐down effects that occur as eutrophication

Relationship Between Genetic and Phenotypic Variations in Natural Populations of Perennial and Biennial Sagebrush

Ecology and Evolution
Plant responses to environmental heterogeneity depend on life‐history traits, which could relate to phenotypical and genetic characteristics. To elucidate this relationship, we examined the variation in population genetics and functional traits of short‐
