Response of individual components of reproductive phenology to growing season length in a monocarpic herb (2011, background): “For example, if reproduction is tightly integrated across the life cycle (cf. Pigliucci 2003), the earlier reproductive development induced by warmer spring temperatures would also advance flowering time, flower deployment and fruit maturation, shifting the entire reproductive schedule.”
Evolution, the Extended Synthesis (2010, background): “…still controversial today (Mishler and Donoghue 1982; Templeton 1989; Grant 1994; Sterelny 1994; Barraclough and Nee 2001; Hey 2001; Schluter 2001; Pigliucci 2003; Coyne and Orr 2004; Gavrilets 2004; de Queiroz 2005), they were a direct rebuttal of Darwin's conception of species as arbitrary…”
Intra-specific variability in biomass partitioning and carbon isotopic discrimination under moderate drought stress in seedlings from four Pinus pinaster populations (2010, background): “Plasticity of morphological and physiological traits may be adaptive, genetically determined, and constrained by tradeoffs between different traits under natural selection (Roff 2001; Pigliucci and Preston 2004; Malausa et al. 2005).”
Insights for Behavioral Ecology from Behavioral Syndromes. (2008, background): “A current area of excitement in evolutionary biology focuses on the interplay between selection and genetics in governing the evolution of integrated phenotypes, packages that could include morphological, physiological, life history, and behavioral traits (Pigliucci and Preston, 2004).”
Contemporary evolution, allelic recycling, and adaptive radiation of the threespine stickleback (2013, background): “(3) Groups of alleles that produce integrated phenotypes (Pigliucci and Preston, 2004) that are adapted to either freshwater or marine habitats but not a mixture of the two will co-segregate in F1 hybrids and backcross individuals so that some individuals will have multiple adaptive traits.”
Geometric morphometrics: recent applications to the study of evolution and development (2010, background): “…to be “modularized”, or composed of traits that are intercorrelated to a greater extent with one another than with traits that do not belong to the same functional or developmental complex (see papers in Pigliucci & Preston, 2004 and Schlosser & Wagner, 2004 for an entry into this literature).”
Contingency and determinism in evolution: Replaying life’s tape (2018, background): “To the extent that shared genetic and developmental systems predispose species to evolve in similar ways (103, 104, 106, 118), then adaptive convergence may often be shaped by the particular history that sculpted the genetics and development of their shared ancestors (119).”
