Evolution in plant populations as a driver of ecological changes in arthropod communities.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 12 Jun 2009

Johnson Marc T J, Vellend Mark, Stinchcombe John R

Abstract excerpt

Heritable variation in traits can have wide-ranging impacts on species interactions, but the effects that ongoing evolution has on the temporal ecological dynamics of communities are not well understood. Here, we identify three conditions that, if experimentally satisfied, support the hypothesis that evolution by natural selection can drive ecological changes in communities. These conditions are: (i) a focal...
