- An analysis of trade‐offs in immune function, body size and development time in the Mediterranean Field Cricket, Gryllus bimaculatus (2005, background): “The present study addresses three questions raised above: first, is immune function negatively correlated with the lifehistory trait, development time? Because there is frequently a positive correlation between development time and body size (Roff 2000), we also analyse the relationship between immu”
- The fast life of a dwarfed giant (2003, background): “In fact, as well as resource deprivation delays maturity, abundant and/or high quality food supply causes faster growth and earlier reproduction, allegedly at reduced body size (Stearns and Koella, 1986; Brommer, 2000) – the resulting shift in growth curve trajectory is heritable ( Roff, 2000 ).”
- The evolution of trade‐offs: where are we? (2007, background): “There is abundant evidence that genetic and phenotypic (co)variances do change in some cases but not others (Roff, 2000; Jones et al., 2003; Cano et al., 2004) although whether this is due primarily to drift or selection is generally uncertain (Roff, 2000, 2004; Steppan et al., 2002; Roff &…”
- The Evolution and Genetics of Migration in Insects (2007, background): “Like other morphological traits, size has a modest to high heritability of approximately 0.40 in G. firmus (Roff 2000).”
- On the transfer of fitness from the cell to the multicellular organism (2006, background): “Single gene mutations in life history traits can be a powerful approach to understanding the cost of reproduction and trade-offs between life history traits, both long standing topics of considerable interest in evolutionary ecology (Reznick 1985; Roff 2000, 2002).”
