Journal ArticleDOI

Informed dispersal, heterogeneity in animal dispersal syndromes and the dynamics of spatially structured populations

TL;DR: Recent literature providing strong evidence that individual variation in dispersal has an important impact on both reinforcement and colonization success and therefore must be taken into account when predicting ecological responses to global warming and habitat fragmentation is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex ratio bias, male aggression, and population collapse in lizards

TL;DR: Numerical projections show that an "evolutionary trap" toward extinction threatens populations in which there is a substantial mating cost for females, and environmental changes or management practices skew the ASR toward males.
Journal ArticleDOI

How does selection operate on whole-organism functional performance capacities? A review and synthesis

TL;DR: This review of existing literature on the nature and intensity of natural and sexual selection on whole-organism performance traits found no evidence that selection was stronger on performance traits than morphological traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical performance and Darwinian fitness in lizards.

TL;DR: This analysis of locomotor performance in the common lizard demonstrates that initial endurance is indeed highly heritable, but natural selection in favour of this trait can be unexpectedly weak, and a manipulation of dietary conditions unravels a proximate mechanism explaining this pattern.
