Anthony J. Zera, Lawrence G. Harshman
▪ Abstract The functional causes of life history trade-offs have been a topic of interest to evolutionary biologists for over six decades. Our review of life history trade-offs discusses conceptual issues associated with physiological aspects of trade-offs, and it describes recent advances on this topic. We focus on studies of four model systems: wing polymorphic insects, Drosophila, liza...... hiện toàn bộ
Species Richness of Parasite Assemblages: Evolution and PatternsAnnual Reviews - Tập 28 Số 1 - Trang 341-358 - 1997

These range from all parasites within an individual host to all parasites exploiting a host species across its geographic range. This arrangement provides an opportunity for the study of patterns and structuring processes operating at different scales. Across the parasi...... hiện toàn bộ
