Variation at range margins across multiple spatial scales: environmental temperature, population genetics and metabolomic phenotype.
Range margins are spatially complex, with environmental, genetic and phenotypic variations occurring across a range of spatial scales. We examine variation in temperature, genes and metabolomic profiles within and between populations of the subalpine perennial plant Arabidopsis lyrata ssp. petraea from across its northwest European range. Our surveys cover a gradient of fragmentation from large...
متن کاملAmphibian species richness across environmental gradients
Large-scale field patterns are a fundamental source of inferences on processes responsible for variation in species richness among habitats. We examined species richness of larval amphibian communities in 37 ponds over seven years on the Univ. of Michigan’s E. S. George Reserve. Ordination of the community incidence matrix indicated a strong major axis of variation in species associations that ...
متن کاملTheory of continuum percolation. I. General formalism.
The theoretical basis of continuum percolation has changed greatly since its beginning as little more than an analogy with lattice systems. Nevertheless, there is yet no comprehensive theory of this field. A basis for such a theory is provided here with the introduction of the Potts fluid, a system of interacting s-state spins which are free to move in the continuum. In the s → 1 limit, the Pot...
متن کاملUnique Development in Hemichordates Suggests Some Unique Features of Chordates
-Three hundred and nineteen patients with primary adenocarcinoma of the ovary were studied to define those factors, many of them histopathological, which influence survival. The paper considers the stage of spread at the time of operation, the histological type of the tumour, its grade and in particular its mitotic activity, which proved a significant feature per se in assessing prognosis in ov...
متن کاملInformation use shapes range expansion dynamics into environmental gradients
Globally, geographic distributions of species are dynamic and strongly influenced by dispersal. Vice versa, range dynamics feed back and may select for increased dispersal. This interplay almost universally happens across environmental gradients which can directly impact the fitness of organisms, but also provide individuals with information on the environmental changes. However, the organisms’...
