Linking Ecological Specialization to Its Macroevolutionary Consequences: An Example with Passerine Nest Type.

Systematic biology - 16 Jun 2023

Zenil-Ferguson Rosana, McEntee Jay P, Burleigh J Gordon, Duckworth Renée A

Abstract excerpt

A long-standing hypothesis in evolutionary biology is that the evolution of resource specialization can lead to an evolutionary dead end, where specialists have low diversification rates and limited ability to evolve into generalists. In recent years, advances in comparative methods investigating trait-based differences associated with diversification have enabled more robust tests of this idea and have found...
