Trait-Fitness Associations via Fecundity and Competition in a Two-Million-Year-Long Fossil Record.

The American naturalist - 1 Sept 2024

Liow Lee Hsiang, Porto Arthur, Di Martino Emanuela

Abstract excerpt

AbstractThe evolution of phenotypic traits is usually studied on generational timescales or across species on million-year timescales. We bridge this conceptual gap by using high-density sampling of a species lineage, Microporella agonistes (Bryozoa, Cheilostomatida), over 2 million years of its evolutionary history, to ask whether trait-fitness associations are consistent with evolutionary trait models often...
