The Ecology of Individuals: Incidence and Implications of Individual Specialization
- D. Bolnick, R. Svanbäck, +4 authors M. Forister
- Biology, Medicine
- The American Naturalist
- 11 December 2002
Most empirical and theoretical studies of resource use and population dynamics treat conspecific individuals as ecologically equivalent. This simplification is only justified if interindividual niche… Expand
SCARED TO DEATH? THE EFFECTS OF INTIMIDATION AND CONSUMPTION IN PREDATOR–PREY INTERACTIONS
- E. Preisser, D. Bolnick, Michael F Benard
- Biology
- 1 February 2005
Predation is a central feature of ecological communities. Most theoretical and empirical studies of predation focus on the consequences of predators consuming their prey. Predators reduce prey… Expand
MEASURING INDIVIDUAL-LEVEL RESOURCE SPECIALIZATION
- D. Bolnick, L. Yang, J. Fordyce, J. Davis, R. Svanbäck
- Biology
- 1 October 2002
Many apparently generalized species are in fact composed of individual specialists that use a small subset of the population's resource distribution. Niche variation is usually established by testing… Expand
Why intraspecific trait variation matters in community ecology.
- D. Bolnick, P. Amarasekare, +7 authors David A. Vasseur
- Biology, Medicine
- Trends in ecology & evolution
- 1 April 2011
Natural populations consist of phenotypically diverse individuals that exhibit variation in their demographic parameters and intra- and inter-specific interactions. Recent experimental work indicates… Expand
The ecological causes of individual specialisation.
- M. S. Araújo, D. Bolnick, C. Layman
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology letters
- 1 September 2011
Many generalist populations are composed of specialised individuals, whose niches are small subsets of the population niche. This 'individual specialisation' is a widespread phenomenon in natural… Expand
Predator-prey naïveté, antipredator behavior, and the ecology of predator invasions
- A. Sih, D. Bolnick, +6 authors J. Vonesh
- Biology
- 1 April 2010
We present a framework for explaining variation in predator invasion success and predator impacts on native prey that integrates information about predator–prey naivete, predator and prey behavioral… Expand
Sympatric Speciation: Models and Empirical Evidence
- D. Bolnick, B. Fitzpatrick
- Biology
- 3 December 2007
Sympatric speciation, the evolution of reproductive isolation without geographic barriers, remains highly contentious. As a result of new empirical examples and theory, it is now generally accepted… Expand
Assortative Mating in Animals
- Y. Jiang, D. Bolnick, M. Kirkpatrick
- Biology, Medicine
- The American Naturalist
- 26 April 2013
Assortative mating occurs when there is a correlation (positive or negative) between male and female phenotypes or genotypes across mated pairs. To determine the typical strength and direction of… Expand
Ecological release from interspecific competition leads to decoupled changes in population and individual niche width
- D. Bolnick, T. Ingram, W. Stutz, L. K. Snowberg, O. L. Lau, Jeffrey S. Paull
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological…
- 17 February 2010
A species's niche width reflects a balance between the diversifying effects of intraspecific competition and the constraining effects of interspecific competition. This balance shifts when a species… Expand
Intraspecific competition drives increased resource use diversity within a natural population
- R. Svanbäck, D. Bolnick
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological…
- 22 March 2007
Resource competition is thought to play a major role in driving evolutionary diversification. For instance, in ecological character displacement, coexisting species evolve to use different resources,… Expand
