The evolution of environmental tolerance and range size: a comparison of geographically restricted and widespread Mimulus.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Oct 2014

Sheth Seema N, Angert Amy L

Abstract excerpt

The geographic ranges of closely related species can vary dramatically, yet we do not fully grasp the mechanisms underlying such variation. The niche breadth hypothesis posits that species that have evolved broad environmental tolerances can achieve larger geographic ranges than species with narrow environmental tolerances. In turn, plasticity and genetic variation in ecologically important traits and adaptation...
