The third chapter includes putting eggs in one basket: ecological and evolutionary hypotheses for variation in oviposition-site choice. Remaining chpaters include ecosystem consequences of biological invasions, the genetic basis of sexually selected variation, the effect of ocean acidification on calcifying organisms in marine ecosystems an organism-to-ecosystem perspective, the ecological and evolutionary consequences of clonality, divergence with gene flow models and data, changing geographic distributions of human pathogens, phylogenenc insights on adaptive radiation, nectar robbing ecological and evolutionary perspectives, germination, postgermination adaptation, and species, biodiversity and climate change integrating evolutionary and ecological responses of species and communities, and the ecological impact of biofuels. The book highlights a list of contributors and their respective institutions. Each chapter contains a list of references. The text is written in English.
