Moving Character Displacement beyond Characters Using Contemporary Coexistence Theory.

Trends in ecology & evolution - 1 Feb 2018

Germain Rachel M, Williams Jennifer L, Schluter Dolph, Angert Amy L

Abstract excerpt

Character displacement is one of the most studied phenomena in evolutionary biology, yet research has narrowly focused on demonstrating whether or not displacement has occurred. We propose a new experimental approach, adopted from the coexistence literature, that directly measures interspecific competition among sympatric and allopatric populations of species. Doing so allows increased ability to (i) test...
