Article
Mark J. McDonnell, Auteur ; Amy K. Hahs, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurAround the world the development and growth of cities and towns are having a significant impact on local and global biodiversity. There is growing interest in the adaptation of nonhuman organisms to urban environments, and we distinguish between[...]
Article
Britt Koskella, Auteur ; Michiel Vos, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurAlthough their diversity greatly exceeds that of plants and animals, microbial organisms have historically received less attention in ecology and evolutionary biology research. This knowledge gap is rapidly closing, owing to recent technological[...]

Article
Scott R. Loss, Auteur ; Tom Will, Auteur ; Peter Marra, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurUnderstanding and reversing the widespread population declines of birds require estimating the magnitude of all mortality sources. Numerous anthropogenic mortality sources directly kill birds. Cause-specific annual mortality in the United States[...]
Article
Marissa L. Baskett, Auteur ; Lewis A. K. Barnett, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurHere we review the population, community, and evolutionary consequences of marine reserves. Responses at each level depend on the tendency of fisheries to target larger body sizes and the tendency for greater reserve protection with less movemen[...]
Article
Erik A. Sperling, Auteur ; Andrew H. Knoll, Auteur ; Peter R. Girguis, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurLiving animals display a variety of morphological, physiological, and biochemical characters that enable them to live in low-oxygen environments. These features and the organisms that have evolved them are distributed in a regular pattern across[...]
Article
Klaus Reinhardt, Auteur ; Ralph Dobler, Auteur ; Jessica Abbott, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurUsing basic ecological concepts, we introduce sperm ecology as a framework to stud sperm cells. First, we describe environmental effects on sperm and conclude that evolutionary and ecological research should not neglect the overwhelming evidence[...]
Article
H. Peter Linder, Auteur ; G. Anthony Verboom, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurThe flora of southern Africa is, for its latitude and area, very species-rich. Although the hyperdiverse Cape flora contributes almost half of this richness, three other radiations (desert, grassland, and woodland) contribute significantly to th[...]
Article
Kentaro K. Shimizu, Auteur ; Takashi Tsuchimatsu, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurSelling has evolved in animals, fungi, and plants, and since Darwin's pioneering study, it is considered one of the most frequent evolutionary trends in flowering plants. Generally, the evolution of selling is characterized by a loss of self-inc[...]
Article
Marc T. J. Johnson, Auteur ; Stuart A. Campbell, Auteur ; Spencer C. H. Barrett, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurCoevolution is among the most important evolutionary processes that generate biological diversity. Plant pollinator interactions play a prominent role in the evolution of reproductive traits in flowering plants. Likewise, plant herbivore interac[...]
Article
Mikko Heino, Auteur ; Beatriz Diaz Pauli, Auteur ; Ulf Dieckmann, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurIncreased mortality from fishing is expected to favor faster life histories, realized through earlier maturation, increased reproductive investment, and reduced postmaturation growth. There is also direct and indirect selection on behavioral tra[...]
Article
Marten Scheffer, Auteur ; Stephen R. Carpenter, Auteur ; Vasilis Dakos, Auteur ; Egbert H. van Nes, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurEcological resilience is the ability of a system to persist in the face of perturbations. Although resilience has been a highly influential concept, its interpretation has remained largely qualitative. Here we describe an emerging family of meth[...]
Article
Tadashi Fukami, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurThe order and timing of species immigration during community assembly can affect species abundances at multiple spatial scales. Known as priority effects, these effects cause historical contingency in the structure and function of communities, r[...]
Article
Cheryl P. Andam, Auteur ; Sarah M. Carver, Auteur ; Sean T. Berthrong, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurMobilization of DNA by horizontal gene transfer (IIGT) is an important process in the evolution of many organisms because it allows the recipient lineage to rapidly acquire metabolic innovations and adapt to new ecological niches. However, the s[...]
Article
Todd H. Oakley, Auteur ; Daniel I. Speiser, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurLearning how complex traits like eves originate is fundamental for understanding evolution. In this review, we first sketch historical perspectives on trait origins and argue that new technologies afford key new insights. Next, we articulate fou[...]
Article
Timothy G. Barraclough, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurTheories of how species evolve in changing environments mostly consider single species in isolation or pairs of interacting species. Yet all organisms live in diverse communities containing many hundreds of species. This review discusses how spe[...]
Article
Fred Kraus, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurAlien herpetofauna have a broad diversity of ecological and evolutionary impacts, involving seven mechanisms. Ecological impacts usually result from trophic disruptions and may be direct or indirect and top-down or bottom-up; they may vary in sc[...]
Article
Tim Jickells, Auteur ; C. Mark Moore, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurDust is produced primarily in desert regions and transported long. distances through the atmosphere to the oceans. Upon deposition of dust, its dissolution can provide an important source of a range of nutrients, particularly iron, to microbes l[...]
Article
John M. Pandolfi, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurCoral reefs are considered one of the ecosystems most vulnerable to ongoing global climate change. However, geographic and taxonomic responses to climate change are highly variable, and fundamental aspects of key research approaches remain unres[...]
Article
Jens-Christian Svenning, Auteur ; Wolf L. Eiserhardt, Auteur ; Signe Normand, Auteur ; Alejandro Ordonez, Auteur ; Brody Sandel, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurFarth's climate has experienced strong changes on timescales ranging from decades to millions of years. As biodiversity has evolved under these circumstances, dependence on these climate dynamics is expected. In this review, we assess the curren[...]
Article
James D. Bever, Auteur ; Scott A. Mangan, Auteur ; Helen M. Alexander, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurWe present strong evidence that pathogens play a critical role in structuring plant communities and maintaining plant diversity. Pathogens mediate plant species coexistence through trade-offs between competitive ability and resistance to pathoge[...]
Article
Kaitlin C. Maguire, Auteur ; Diego Nieto-Lugilde, Auteur ; Matthew C. Fitzpatrick, Auteur ; John W. Williams, Auteur ; Jessica L. Blois, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurThere is an urgent need to understand species and community responses to climatic and ecological changes to predict biodiversity patterns given anticipated global change. The current distribution of species and the environment provide a limited [...]
Article
Rodney J. Dyer, Auteur ; D. J. Futuyma, AuteurAt the heart of the analyses of landscape genetics are isolation models seeking to explain either interindividual or interpopulation connectivity. These models use spatial, ecological, and topographic predictor variables measured between sites i[...]
