- Compensatory traits and the evolution of male ornaments (2011, background): “…selection operates on the integrated functional manifestations of morphological and physiological traits; that is, selection acts on how well animals perform in nature (Figure 1) (Bartholomew, 1958; Huey & Stevenson, 1979; Arnold, 1983; Pough, 1989; Irschick & Garland, 2001; Irschick et al., 2008).”
- The fitness advantage of a high‐performance weapon (2009, background): “‘whole-animal performance’; Arnold, 1983) is a direct target of selection, and the evolution of morphology underlying performance traits occurs secondarily (Arnold, 1983; Le Galliard, Clobert & Ferrière, 2004; Irschick et al., 2008).”
- Sexual selection on locomotor performance (2008, background): “In recent years, several studies have attempted to link superior maximal locomotor performance with heightened survival (e.g. Jayne and Bennett, 1990; Miles et al., 2001; Le Galliard et al., 2004; Miles, 2004; Husak, 2006a, 2006b; Irschick et al., 2008), but far fewer studies have attempted to direc”
- CONVERGENCE, ADAPTATION, AND CONSTRAINT (2011, neutral): “selection, how can we further test the adaptation hypothesis?”
- Geographic variation in vulnerability to climate warming in a tropical Caribbean lizard (2012, background): “Locomotor performance (i.e. sprint speed) is an ecologically relevant temperature-dependent per- formance trait (Bennett 1980; Irschick et al. 2008) that is commonly used as a physiological parameter to explore the impact of climate warming on ectotherms, including lizards (Buckley 2008; Kearney et…”
- Personality and the pace‐of‐life syndrome: variation and selection on exploration, metabolism and locomotor performances (2013, background): “First, high RMR and locomotor capacities are not necessarily associated with a higher production (Irs- chick et al. 2008; Burton et al. 2011).”
- Mechanics of bite force production and its relationship to diet in bats (2010, neutral): “Studies of the relationship between morphology and performance have been a cornerstone of evolutionary biology for the last 50 years (reviewed in Garland & Losos 1994; Koehl 1996; Wainwright 1994; Irschick et al. 2008).”
