Based on the observation that organism‐specific elemental content creates ecologically
relevant mismatches such as between plant and animal tissue, it was postulated—and …

Ecological stoichiometry has generated new insights into how the balance of elements
affects ecological interactions and ecosystem processes, but little is known about the …

For an accurate assessment of the anthropogenic impacts on evolutionary change in natural
populations, we need long‐term environmental, genetic and phenotypic data that predate …

▪ Abstract The multi-gene family that encodes ribosomal RNA (the rDNA) has been the
subject of numerous review articles examining its structure and function, as well as its use as …

The mission of the American Society of Naturalists is “to advance and diffuse knowledge of
organic evolution and other broad biological principles so as to enhance the conceptual …

The genetic basis of organism response to stoichiometric mismatches between
environmental availability and somatic demand is still poorly understood. This study reports …

Recently, data have emerged indicating that not only high food carbon: phosphorus (C: P)
ratio but also low food C: P (P-rich food) can have negative effects on the growth of …

Cyanobacteria may reduce Daphnia fitness through their toxicity, low nutritional value or
poor manageability. In this study, the relative importance of the low nutritional value and …

The concept of life‐history traits and the study of these traits are the hallmark of population
biology. Acknowledging their variability and evolution has allowed us to understand how …

Ecological stoichiometry, that is, the study of mass balance of multiple key chemical
elements during ecological interactions, has recently been generalized to most ecosystems …
