Local and continental correlates of the abundance of a neotropical cat, the ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) (2008, background): “Interspecific interactions among cat species, mainly in the form of food competition (Caro & Stoner 2003, Dayan & Simberloff 2005) and intra-guild killing (Donadio & Buskirk 2006), may also affect the abundance of some species.”
Adaptation and diversification on islands (2009, background): “Most now accept its role in diversification, and some of the best examples come from island settings 10,42 .”
The Developmental, Physiological, Neural, and Genetical Causes and Consequences of Frequency-Dependent Selection in the Wild (2006, background): “For example, inducible feeding morphs under FDS within a species can lead to ecological character displacement (Dayan & Simberloff 2005, Pfennig 1992) and divergent selection pressures that alleviate competition for common resources (Pfennig & Murphy 2003).”
The problem of pattern and scale in ecology: what have we learned in 20 years? (2013, background): “Measures of ecological distances based on ecological traits have been proposed to quantify community-wide character displacement (Dayan & Simberloff 2005; Kraft et al. 2008; Losos 2008).”
Phylogenetic patterns are not proxies of community assembly mechanisms (they are far better) (2015, background): “Specifically, coexistence among closely related species can trigger character displacement to reduce competition intensity (Dayan & Simberloff 2005), or character convergence to reduce competition asymmetry (Scheffer & van Nes 2006).”
Morphological assessment of the Octopus vulgaris species complex evaluated in light of molecular‐based phylogenetic inferences (2017, background): “Such ‘ecological character displacement’ appears to be a common strategy among closely related taxa and has been documented in a number of plant, reptile, mammal, bird, fish and snail taxa (Dayan & Simberloff 2005).”
Opposing effects of competitive exclusion on the phylogenetic structure of communities. (2010, background): “…closely related taxa compete more intensely than their distantly related counterparts, limiting their ability to coexist (Webb et al. 2002; as discussed in Silvertown et al. 2001; Slingsby & Verboom 2006; Prinzing et al. 2008; and reviewed in Dayan & Simberloff 2005; Cavender-Bares et al. 2009).”
Size evolution in island lizards (2007, unknown): “Character release (Dayan & Simberloff, 2005) allows animals to evolve towards the size of their missing competitors.”
Using functional traits and phylogenetic trees to examine the assembly of tropical tree communities (2012, background): “…have identical niches, either one species will exclude the other, causing spatial and ⁄or temporal partitioning (Diamond 1975’s checkerboard distri- bution, Gotelli &McCabe 2002; Chao et al. 2005); or selective pressure will eventually result in character displacement (Dayan & Simberloff 2005).”
Rapid Evolutionary Change and the Coexistence of Species (2011, background): “Evidence for character displacement has been documented in dozens of systems, including vertebrates, invertebrates, and plants (for a review see Dayan & Simberloff 2005).”
A response to recent proposals for integrative taxonomy (2010, background): “Character displacement can also vary the degree of differentiation between two species depending on them being in sympatry or allopatry (Dayan & Simberloff, 2005).”
Time Partitioning Favors the Coexistence of Sympatric Crab-Eating Foxes (Cerdocyon thous) and Pampas Foxes (Lycalopex gymnocercus) (2009, background): “Thus, when resources are limiting, species can coexist if they differ morphologically or behaviorally and consequently use different resources or use them in different areas or at different times (Brown and Wilson 1956; Davies et al. 2007; Dayan and Simberloff 2005; Schoener 1974).”
