Indeed, traits involved in ecological processes may have various histories and thus moderate phylogenetic signals.
Abrams, P. A. Modelling the adaptive dynamics of traits involved in inter- and intraspecific interactions: An assessment of three methods.
We tested the hypothesis that traits involved in the fast-slow trade-off mediate tree responses to hurricanes.
This may suggest that strong environmental filters have favoured convergence for similar traits involved in climate tracking for species in distant clades.
Determining the genes and the genetic architecture of traits involved in adaptive divergence between ecotypes is crucial to understand the process of speciation.
For responding to the mass customization trend it is necessary to develop an agility-based manufacturing system to catch on the traits involved in MC.
A greenhouse experiment was designed to assess the physiological traits involved in drought acclimation and recovery of 3-month-old plants.
The presence of multiple functional variants of traits involved in activities such as feeding, reproduction, or the defense against predators is relatively uncommon within animal species.
Conservatism of range shifts at the leading and trailing edges of distribution can be expected to be driven by the degree of phylogenetic clustering of traits involved in responding to climate change5.
Here, we used range shifts documented for stream fish to assess whether phylogenetic patterns in shifts at the leading and trailing edges along an altitudinal gradient resulted from conservatism of the traits involved in species response to climate change.
Recently, the importance of microbial traits involved in N2O production processes has gained worldwide concern (e.g., Maeda et al. 2011).
