Facultative endosymbionts mediate dietary breadth in a polyphagous herbivore (2015, background): “Such intraspecific variation is increasingly recognized as an important driver for community ecology and eco-evolutionary dynamics (Bolnick et al. 2011; Hersch-Green, Turley & Johnson 2011; Schoener 2011), yet the breadth of mechanisms underlying intraspecific variation in diet are only beginning to”
Analysing eco‐evolutionary dynamics—The challenging complexity of the real world (2019, neutral): “…Geber, & Hairston, 2011; Fussmann, Loreau, & Abrams, 2007; Hairston, Ellner, Geber, Yoshida, & Fox, 2005; Hendry, 2017; Palkovacs & Post, 2009; Schoener, 2011; Shefferson & Salguero-Gómez, 2015; Urban et al., 2008), papers emphasizing applications for conservation and global change (Alberti,…”
Evolution of life in urban environments (2017, background): “It is increasingly recognized that evolution affects the ecology of populations, communities, and ecosystems (23, 24), but how urban evolution feeds back to affect ecology is unknown (25).”
Under niche construction: an operational bridge between ecology, evolution, and ecosystem science (2014, background): “…dynamics grew out the recognition that population dynamics and phenotypic evolution can occur on similar timescales, leading to an important contemporary interplay between evolutionary and ecological dynamics in natural populations (Thompson 1998, Hairston et al. 2005, Schoener 2011).”
Energy acquisition and allocation to egg production in relation to fish reproductive strategies (2014, background): “comparative research, investigating a few species in great detail could tease apart the heritable and ecophysiological components of these reproductive strategies (Schoener 2011).”
Ecological stoichiometry: An elementary approach using basic principles (2013, background): “…that it encompasses, is that it has made it easier to integrate biogeochemical studies with evolutionary studies, a step that may be especially useful given recent realizations that ‘‘ecological time’’ and ‘‘evolutionary time’’ are not as disjunctive as had previously been assumed (Schoener 2011).”
Plant–soil feedbacks: connecting ecosystem ecology and evolution (2016, background): “The relative importance and extent of reciprocal interactions between the ecology of populations, communities and ecosystems, and their evolutionary dynamics remains an open issue (Fussmann, Loreau & Abrams 2007; Post & Palkovacs 2009; Schoener 2011; Matthews et al. 2014).”
Comparing rates of contemporary evolution in life-history traits for exploited fish stocks (2012, background): “Variations and reversals in evolutionary trajectories are common in many examples of 476 contemporary evolution (Gingerich 1983; Hendry and Kinnison 1999; Estes and Arnold 477 2007; Schoener 2011); however, the LRI application indicated that neither stasis nor 478 directional change was occurring.”
Stickleback research: the now and the next (2013, background): “In addition, it is now well documented that even subtle genetic and phenotypic differences within and among populations and species can have significant effects on ecological processes at the population, community, and ecosystem levels (Fussman et al., 2007; Hughes et al., 2008; Pelletier et al., 20”
Eco‐evolutionary dynamics in fragmented landscapes (2017, positive): “…factor that provokes a heritable change in phenotypic distribution due to microevolutionary processes such as selection or gene flow, or any heritable change in a trait distribution (shape, mean and higher moments) that provokes a change in ecological factors (Pelletier et al. 2009, Schoener 2011).”
Evolving coral reef conservation with genetic information (2014, background): “…timescales, the timescale of evolution is much shorter than is commonly appreciated (Hendry and Kinnison 1999, Palumbi 2001, stillman 2003, schoener 2011), and significant anthropogenic effects (e.g., on maturation rate or size) have already been detected on the evolutionary trajectory of…”
Evolutionary changes in plant reproductive traits following habitat fragmentation and their consequences for population fitness (2012, background): “Finally, the suggestion that rapid evolutionary changes in phenotypic trait values, occurring in the same time spectrum as ecological processes, may directly feedback to change the ecological interactions and responses of the species (Schoener 2011) is represented by arrow 6 on Fig.”
Do Eco-Evo Feedbacks Help Us Understand Nature? Answers From Studies of the Trinidadian Guppy (2014, background): “The burgeoning interest in eco-evo feedbacks, however, has been inspired by more recent experiments that have shown feedbacks that are strong enough to make the joint dynamics of ecological and genetic variation visible (Ellner, 2013; Schoener, 2011).”
