BIO153H5 Lecture Notes - The American Naturalist, Oenothera, Seed Predation
Document Summary
A. , johnson m. t. j. , hastings a. p. , j. l. maron. A field experiment demonstrating plant life-history evolution and its eco evolutionary feedback to seed predator populations. This experiment showed that rapid and consistent genotypes changes, evolutionary change could overpower factors that intervene such as genetic drift. Compared to competition, an organism"s ability to develop and reproduce rapidly is more advantageous: the information is important because it gives us an estimation on which species is more adapted to their environment and surroundings. In example, if there is little competition with an abundance in resources then it can be stated that the species will span a shorter life time: this article was easy to read and to the point. The only concerns i had was with some vocabulary which could"ve been solved if there had been an attached glossary: the article that i have chosen does not talk about the same concept as in question five.
