Variability of alder-dominated forest vegetation along a latitudinal gradient

Plant species establishment and survival along environmental gradients have commonly been attributed to different environmental niches, life-history and adaptive traits [1]. Effective phenotype adaptation of alder species to extreme soil conditions allows them to form canopy-closed forest vegetation on alluvial and marshland localities. Alder forests represent azonal plant communities developed...

Micro-Evolution in Grasshoppers Mediated by Polymorphic Robertsonian Translocations

This review focuses on grasshoppers that are polymorphic for Robertsonian translocations because in these organisms the clarity of meiotic figures allows the study of both chiasma distribution and the orientation of trivalents and multivalents in metaphase I. Only five species of such grasshoppers were found in the literature, and all of them were from the New World: Oedaleonotus enigma (Scudde...

Morphological, genetic, and chromosomal variation at a small spatial scale within a mosaic hybrid zone of the grasshopper Dichroplus pratensis Bruner (Acrididae).

Hybrid zones are regions where genetically different populations meet and mate, resulting in offspring of mixed characteristics. In organisms with limited dispersal, such as melanopline grasshoppers, hybrid zones can occur at small spatial scales (i.e., <500 m). We assessed levels of morphological, chromosomal, and molecular variability in adult males of the grasshopper Dichroplus pratensis Bru...

Habitat width along a latitudinal gradient

We use the Chowdhury ecosystem model, one of the most complex agent-based ecological models, to test the latitude-niche breadth hypothesis, with regard to habitat width, i.e., whether tropical species generally have narrower habitats than high latitude ones. Application of the model has given realistic results in previous studies on latitudinal gradients in species diversity and Rapoport's rule...
