A way forward with eco evo devo: an extended theory of resource polymorphism with postglacial fishes as model systems
ABSTRACT A major goal of evolutionary science is to understand how biological diversity is
generated and altered. Despite considerable advances, we still have limited insight into how …

Phenotype‐environment correlations in a putative whitefish adaptive radiation
The adaptive radiation of fishes into benthic (littoral) and pelagic (lentic) morphs in post‐
glacial lakes has become an important model system for speciation. Although these systems …

The role of gill raker number variability in adaptive radiation of coregonid fish
Gill raker divergence is a general pattern in adaptive radiations of postglacial fish, but few
studies have addressed the adaptive significance of this morphological trait in foraging and …

Seasonality can affect ecological interactions between fishes of different thermal guilds
Seasonality could play a crucial role in structuring species interactions. For example, many
ectotherms alter their activity, habitat, and diet in response to seasonal temperature …

Partial diel vertical migrations in pelagic fish
T Mehner, P Kasprzak - Journal of Animal Ecology, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Field studies on diel vertical migration (DVM) usually report uniform behaviour with
population‐wide ascents and descents during crepuscular periods. This contrasts partial …
