Evolutionary consequences of niche construction and their implications for ecology.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 31 Aug 1999

Laland K N, Odling-Smee F J, Feldman M W

Abstract excerpt

Organisms regularly modify local resource distributions, influencing both their ecosystems and the evolution of traits whose fitness depends on such alterable sources of natural selection in environments. We call these processes niche construction. We explore the evolutionary consequences of nich...
