Toward an ecological synthesis: a case for habitat selection (2003, background): “Regardless of mechanism, character displacement and the eventual diversification of species will often be mediated via habitat (e.g., Boughman 2001; Schluter 2000, 2001; Via 2001).”
Phylogenetic diversity, trait diversity and niches: species assembly of ferns along a tropical elevational gradient (2011, background): “As the taxa are able to occur almost everywhere (random phylogenetic dispersion) and may be evolutionarily plastic, closely related species coexisting at certain sites may undergo trait shifts (‘character displacement’; Schluter, 2000) that reduce niche overlap.”
Fish behavioral types and their ecological consequences (2014, positive): “(2013) conducted similar types of mesocosm studies comparing the ecosystem effects of two threespine stickleback morphotypes (benthic and limnetic; McPhail 1993; Schluter 2000) and found significant effects of stickleback type on a variety of ecosystem functions.”
Integrating micro- and macroevolutionary processes in community ecology (2003, background): “This broader perspective allows us to ask where the collection of species we see coexisting today comes from (Manos and Donoghue 2001), why these species have the phenotypic properties they possess (Schluter 2000), and why other types of species are not present (McPeek and Miller 1996).”
Assembly rules of ectoparasite communities across scales: combining patterns of abiotic factors, host composition, geographic space, phylogeny and traits (2015, methodology): “A trait variable should be omitted from the ESLTP analysis if it does not demonstrate phylogenetic signal or does not correlate with environmental variables. To detect phylogenetic signal, we used the root-skewness test of Pavoine et al. (2010). To test for correlation of a trait with environmental ”
Rapid divergence in a recently isolated population of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus L.) (2002, background): “Thus, it offers unique opportunities to study the importance of ecological factors in evolution and speciation (Skúlason and Smith, 1995; Smith and Skúlason, 1996; Schluter, 1996, 1998a,b, 2000a; Robinson and Schluter, 2000).”
On the role of male competition in speciation: a review and research agenda (2018, background): “Character displacement via male competition in secondary contact When recently diverged lineages come into secondary contact after a period of allopatry, they may still share similar agonistic signals and similar responses to those signals (Schluter 2000).”
Niche differentiation in Mexican birds: using point occurrences to detect ecological innovation (2003, background): “In some cases, niche evolution can be rapid and dramatic, as in adaptive radiations (Schluter 2000), and a growing number of examples demonstrate evolutionary shifts in range limits in rapidly changing environments (e.g. Davis & Shaw 2001; Thomas et al. 2001).”
Disparities in habitat use and migratory behavior between tropical eel Anguilla marmorata and temperate eel A. japonica in four Taiwanese rivers (2003, background): “The salinity choice by the congeners of the eel may be regarded as ‘character displacement’ similar to that for other species for adaptive radiation (Brown & Wilson 1956, Schluter 1994, 2000).”
HABITAT‐DEPENDENT SONG DIVERGENCE IN THE LITTLE GREENBUL: AN ANALYSIS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SELECTION PRESSURES ON ACOUSTIC SIGNALS (2002, neutral): “1998; Schluter 1998, 2001).”
Intraspecific food competition in fishes (2006, background): “There are a number of means by which interindividual niche differences may arise, ranging from ontogenetic and sexual niches (Polis 1984; Shine 1989; Wisheu 1998), to individual prey-type specializations (Kohda 1994) and discrete trophic polymorphisms (Smith and Skulason 1996; Schluter 2000).”
Divergent echolocation call frequencies in insular rhinolophids (Chiroptera): a case of character displacement? (2007, background): “Acoustic divergence would then represent a case of ecological character displacement (Schluter, 2000; p. S5), i.e. ‘the process of phenotypic evolution in a species generated or maintained by resource competition with one or more coexisting species’.”
Individual boldness affects interspecific interactions in sticklebacks (2009, background): “When interspecific competition is intense, character displacement is likely, leading to the restriction of niche breadths and reducing the likelihood of interactions between species (Schluter and McPhail 1992; Schluter 2000).”
