Larval habitats impose trait-dependent limits on the direction and rate of adult evolution in dragonflies.

Biology letters - 1 May 2021

Moore Michael P

Abstract excerpt

Natural selection on juveniles is often invoked as a constraint on adult evolution, but it remains unclear when such restrictions will have their greatest impact. Selection on juveniles could, for example, mainly limit the evolution of adult traits that mostly develop prior to maturity. Alternatively, selection on juveniles might primarily constrain the evolution of adult traits that experience weak or...
