Synthetic analyses of phenotypic selection in natural populations: lessons, limitations and future directions (2012, background): “Elasticities are ideal for relating demography and selection because they are identical to selection differentials of vital rates when scaled to have a mean value of zero and variance of one (van Tienderen 2000).”
Adaptation, Plasticity, and Extinction in a Changing Environment: Towards a Predictive Theory (2010, background): “We propose that incorporating phenotypically plastic traits, which are under stabilizing selection through their influence on lifetime fitness [33,34,79], can clarify how tolerance curves emerge and evolve (Figure 1).”
Estimating genetic parameters in natural populations using the "animal model". (2004, background): “…effects may ultimately provide better estimates of an individual’s genetic contribution to future generations, and hence of selection on different phenotypic traits (see discussion in Grafen 1988; Charlesworth 1994; van Tienderen 2000; Wolf & Wade 2001; Brommer et al. 2002; Coulson et al. 2004).”
Decomposing the variation in population growth into contributions from multiple demographic rates (2005, background): “Ecologists are interested in the relative contribution of different demographic rates to variation in population growth, because knowledge of these contributions is required to inform wildlife-management strategies (Caswell, Fujiwara & Brault 1999) and to explore selection on life-history traits (Be”
Heritability is not Evolvability (2011, background): “The meanscaled selection gradient measures the proportional change in fitness with a proportional change in the trait, and is technically an elasticity (van Tienderen 2000).”
Phenotypic plasticity and evolutionary demographic responses to climate change: taking theory out to the field (2013, background): “In some cases, an optimum phenotype can be estimated indirectly without measuring fitness, for instance, from a peak of food abundance for the optimal breeding date (Van Asch et al. 2007).”
