The impact of plant enemies shows a phylogenetic signal. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2015 The host ranges of plant pathogens and herbivores are phylogenetically constrained, so that closely related plant species are more likely to share pests and pathogens.

Evidence for phylogenetic signal and correlated evolution in plant-water relations traits.
New Phytologist, 2022 Evolutionary relationships are likely to play a significant role in shaping plant physiological and structural traits observed in contemporary taxa. We review research on phylogenetic signal and correlated evolution in plant-water relations traits, which

Phylogeny as a proxy for ecology in seagrass amphipods: which traits are most conserved? [PDF]
, 2013 Increasingly, studies of community assembly and ecosystem function combine trait data and phylogenetic relationships to gain novel insight into the ecological and evolutionary constraints on community dynamics.

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 PremiseWe investigated whether phylogenetic conservatism can improve the performance of seed germinability prediction models. Previous studies in tallgrass prairie and alpine meadow revealed that seed morphological traits demonstrate phylogenetic ...

bioRxiv, 2021 Whether interactions between species are conserved on evolutionary time-scales has spurred the development of both correlative and process-based approaches for testing phylogenetic signal in interspecific interactions: do closely related species interact

Avian vocalizations and phylogenetic signal [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997 The difficulty of separating genetic and ecological components of vocalizations has discouraged biologists from using vocal characters to reconstruct phylogenetic and ecological history. By considering the physics of vocalizations in terms of habitat structure, we predict which of five vocal characters of herons are most likely to be influenced by ...

Predictability of the community‐function landscape in wine yeast ecosystems
Molecular Systems Biology, 2023 Predictively linking taxonomic composition and quantitative ecosystem functions is a major aspiration in microbial ecology, which must be resolved if we wish to engineer microbial consortia.

A standardized effect size for evaluating and comparing the strength of phylogenetic signal
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Macroevolutionary studies frequently characterize the phylogenetic signal in phenotypes; however, analytical tools for comparing the strength of that signal across traits remain largely underdeveloped.

Phylogenetic Signal, Evolutionary Process, and Rate [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2008 A recent advance in the phylogenetic comparative analysis of continuous traits has been explicit, model-based measurement of "phylogenetic signal" in data sets composed of observations collected from species related by a phylogenetic tree. Phylogenetic signal is a measure of the statistical dependence among species' trait values due to their ...
