Tradeoffs between dispersal and reproduction at an invasion front of cane toads in tropical Australia.

Scientific reports - 16 Jan 2020

Kelehear Crystal, Shine Richard

Abstract excerpt

Individuals at the leading edge of a biological invasion experience novel evolutionary pressures on mating systems, due to low population densities coupled with tradeoffs between reproduction and dispersal. Our dissections of >1,200 field-collected cane toads (Rhinella marina) at a site in tropical Australia reveal rapid changes in morphological and reproductive traits over a three-year period after the invaders...
