Effects of range-wide variation in climate and isolation on floral traits and reproductive output of Clarkia pulchella.
PREMISE OF THE STUDY Plant mating systems and geographic range limits are conceptually linked by shared underlying drivers, including landscape-level heterogeneity in climate and in species' abundance. Studies of how geography and climate interact to affect plant traits that influence mating system and population dynamics can lend insight to ecological and evolutionary processes shaping ranges....
متن کاملIncreased Probability of Extinction Due to Decreased Genetic Effective Population Size: Experimental Populations of Clarkia Pulchella.
We established replicated experimental populations of the annual plant Clarkia pulchella to evaluate the existence of a causal relationship between loss of genetic variation and population survival probability. Two treatments differing in the relatedness of the founders, and thus in the genetic effective population size (Ne ), were maintained as isolated populations in a natural environment. Af...
متن کاملAsynchrony of seasons: genetic differentiation associated with geographic variation in climatic seasonality and reproductive phenology.
Many organisms exhibit distinct breeding seasons tracking food availability. If conspecific populations inhabit areas that experience different temporal cycles in food availability spurred by variation in precipitation regimes, then they should display asynchronous breeding seasons. Thus, such populations might exhibit a temporal barrier to gene flow, which may potentially promote genetic diffe...
متن کاملGeographic variation in adult survival and reproductive tactics of the mosquito Aedes albopictus.
Climate differences across latitude can result in seasonal constraints and selection on life history characters. Since Aedes albopictus (Skuse) invaded North America in the mid-1980s, it has spread across a range of approximately 14 degrees latitude and populations in the north experience complete adult mortality due to cold winter temperatures that are absent in the south. Life table experimen...
