Integrating ecology into macroevolutionary research.
On 9 March, over 150 biologists gathered in London for the Centre for Ecology and Evolution spring symposium, 'Integrating Ecology into Macroevolutionary Research'. The event brought together researchers from London-based institutions alongside others from across the UK, Europe and North America for a day of talks. The meeting highlighted methodological advances and recent analyses of exemplar ...
متن کاملIntegrating Micro- and Macroevolutionary Processes in Community Ecology
Neuhauser et al. (2003) and Whitham et al. (2003) clearly demonstrate the powerful insights that can be gained from examining the evolutionary process in an ecological context by combining community ecology and population genetics. These approaches show how organism interactions can influence rates and direction of evolution, and how genetic variation within populations can influence patterns o...
متن کاملIntegrating ecology into biotechnology.
New high-throughput culture-independent molecular tools are allowing the scientific community to characterize and understand the microbial communities underpinning environmental biotechnology processes in unprecedented ways. By creatively leveraging these new data sources, microbial ecology has the potential to transition from a purely descriptive to a predictive framework, in which ecological ...
متن کاملSpecial Issue Integrating Phylogenies into Community Ecology
Global patterns in species richness have resisted explanation since they first caught the attention of ecologists in the 1960s. The failure of ecology to fully integrate the diversity issue into its core of accepted wisdom derives from an inappropriate concept of community and the rejection of history and region as formative contexts for ecological systems. Traditionally, ecologists have held t...
متن کاملIntegrating oxidative ecology into conservation physiology
Ecologists have recently shown great interest in using physiological markers as indicators of the health of animal populations. In this context, the measurement of markers of oxidative balance, such as antioxidant defences and oxidative damage, may be a valuable tool. Indeed, at the individual level, antioxidant defences are positively associated with fertility and survival probability, while e...
