Responses of wetland graminoids to the relative supply of nitrogen and phosphorus (2004, background): “The low plasticity in RMR of M. caerulea in experiment 2 may have caused this species to respond strongly to light but weakly to nutrients cf. Sultan 2001 .”
PHENOTYPIC PLASTICITY AND INTERACTIONS AMONG PLANTS (2003, background): “In general, high phenotypic plasticity has been thought to confer superior invasive and competitive abilities (Bloom et al. 1985, Poorter and Lambers 1986, Aerts et al. 1991, Grime et al. 1991, Aerts 1999, Sultan 2000, 2001), but few studies have explicitly tested this hypothesis.”
Shedding light on shade: ecological perspectives of understorey plant life (2016, background): “In fact, a large ecological niche breadth involving the capacity to perform well both in high and low light conditions is believed to contribute to invasive success (Sultan 2001; Traveset et al. 2008).”
Maximum body size among insular Komodo dragon populations covaries with large prey density (2006, background): “Such intraspecific variation reflects local adaptive strategies for dealing with contrasting island environments (Leips et al. 2000, Reznick and Travis 2001, Sultan 2001 ).”
How plant life-history and ecological traits relate to species rarity and commonness at varying spatial scales (2002, background): “In some recent studies, the physiological responses of related species with narrow and broad habitat specificity/ecological breadth have been contrasted (Walters & Field 1987; Field 1988; Chazdon 1992; Mulkey et al. 1993; Strauss-Debenedetti & Berlyn 1994; Sultan et al. 1998a,b; Bell & Sultan 1999; ”
Habitat range and phenotypic variation in salt marsh plants (2005, background): “…and phenotypic variation within species, it is reasonable to hypothesize that species that occupy a wider range of habitats habitat generalists will be more variable in phenotype than species that occupy a narrow range of habitats habitat specialists Van Valen 1965, Baker 1974, Sultan 2001 .”
Morphological plasticity in response to shading in three Convolvulus species of different ecological breadth (2004, background): “The relationship between phenotypic plasticity and ecological breadth of plants species has been evaluated by several studies (Curtis, 1983; Schlichting and Levin, 1984; Walters and Field, 1987; Zhang and Lechowicz, 1994; Sala and Nowak, 1997; Sultan et al., 1998; Sultan, 2001).”
Multispecies comparison reveals that invasive and native plants differ in their traits but not in their plasticity (2011, background): “…plasticity would reduce the risk of stochastic local extinction after the arrival of a few genotypes and augment the likelihood of species to become invasive under environmental conditions to which they were not preadapted (Sultan 2001; Ghalam- bor et al. 2007; Bossdorf, Lipowsky & Prati 2008).”
Phenotypic plasticity of vegetative and reproductive traits in monoecious and dioecious populations of Sagittaria latifolia (Alismataceae): a clonal aquatic plant (2004, background): “In spite of this, such comparisons for plants are uncommon (but see Schlichting & Levin 1984; Pigliucci et al. 1997; Sultan 2001).”
Revisiting the Holy Grail: using plant functional traits to understand ecological processes (2017, background): “Third, trait values may vary among populations of a species, again reflecting both genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity (e.g. Donohue et al., 2005; Sultan, 2001; Sultan et al., 1998).”
