Multiple routes to reduced interspecific territorial fighting in Hetaerina damselflies
Interspecific territoriality may be adaptive if territories contain depletable resources that are valuable to both species, but it can also arise as a maladaptive by-product of intraspecific territoriality. In the latter scenario, sympatric species ought to diverge in ways that reduce interspecific fighting. We studied 4 Hetaerina damselfly species that can be found in sympatry in North America...
متن کاملLife-history evolution when Lestes damselflies invaded vernal ponds.
We know little about the macroevolution of life-history traits along environmental gradients, especially with regard to the directionality compared to the ancestral states and the associated costs to other functions. Here we examine how age and size at maturity evolved when Lestes damselflies shifted from their ancestral temporary pond habitat (i.e., ponds that may dry once every decade or so) ...
متن کاملInfluence of the Male Ejaculate on Post-Mating Prezygotic Barriers in Field Crickets
Post-copulatory interactions between males and females involve highly coordinated, complex traits that are often rapidly evolving and divergent between species. Failure to produce and deposit eggs may be a common post-mating prezygotic barrier, yet little is known about what prevents the induction of egg-laying between species. The field crickets, Gryllus firmus and G. pennsylvanicus are isolat...
متن کاملComparative genetics of potential prezygotic and postzygotic isolating barriers in a Lycopersicon species cross.
I compare the genetic basis of quantitative traits that potentially contribute to pre- and postzygotic isolation between the plant species Solanum lycopersicum (formerly Lycopersicon esculentum) and Solanum habrochaites (formerly Lycopersicon hirsutum), using quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping in a set of near-isogenic lines. Putative prezygotic isolating traits include flower size, flower s...
متن کاملHabsburg Austria: Experiments in Non-Territorial Autonomy
In the early twentieth century, three provinces of the Austrian half of the Habsburg Empire enacted national compromises in their legislation that had elements of non-territorial autonomy provisions. Czech and German politicians in Moravia reached an agreement in 1905. In the heavily mixed Bukovina, Romanian, Ukrainian, German, Jewish and Polish representatives agreed on a new provincial consti...
