Climatic niche evolution in the Andean genus Menonvillea (Cremolobeae: Brassicaceae)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017-03)
The study of how climatic niches change over evolutionary time has recently attracted the interest of many researchers. Different methodologies have been employed principally to analyze the temporal dynamics of the niche ...
Distribution of the invasive plant Taraxacum officinale at mediterranean altitudinal gradients: using niche models to infer whether cushion plants expand altitudinal range of this species
(2014)
Climatic conditions at higher altitudes pose a barrier to exotic species establishment due to an
increase of the severity of climatic conditions, reducing plant survival and/or reproduction.
However, processes that occur ...
Temperature and pH define the realised niche space of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2021-03-04)
The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are a globally distributed group of soil organisms that play critical roles in ecosystem function. However, the ecological niches of individual AM fungal taxa are poorly understood. ...
Intraspecific ecological niche divergence and reproductive shifts foster cytotype displacement and provide ecological opportunity to polyploids
(Oxford University Press, 2018-05)
Background and Aims Niche divergence between polyploids and their lower ploidy progenitors is one of the primary mechanisms fostering polyploid establishment and adaptive divergence. However, within-species chromosomal and ...
Phylogeny, evolution and ecological speciation analyses of Imperata (Poaceae: Andropogoneae) in the Neotropics
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-03)
Imperata is a ubiquitous grass genus of the tribe Andropogoneae (Poaceae), distributed throughout the world. Previous systematic studies had established that the genus encompasses nine species although no phylogenetic ...
The effect of past defaunation on ranges, niches, and future biodiversity forecasts
(2022-01-01)
Humans have reshaped the distribution of biodiversity across the globe, extirpating species from regions otherwise suitable and restricting populations to a subset of their original ranges. Here, we ask if anthropogenic ...
Niche dynamics and potential geographic distribution of Didymosphenia geminata (Lyngbye) M. Schmidt, an invasive freshwater diatom in Southern Chile
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2014)
© 2014 REABIC. Aquatic invasive species are a major threat to native freshwater ecosystems and cause enormous ecological and economic damage worldwide. Didymosphenia geminata (Lyngbye) M. Schmidt is an emerging invasive ...
Comments about some species abundance patterns: classic, neutral, and niche partitioning models
(Int Inst Ecology, 2008-11-01)
The literature on species abundance models is extensive and a great deal of new and important contributions have been published in the last three decades. Broadly speaking, one can recognize five families of species abundance ...
