V happy to share new paper led by @schmidmax.bsky.social: doi.org/10.1111/ele.... We show that plastic germination timing not only buffers environmental fluctuations (storage effect) but also promotes divergence, temporal assortative mating and thus ecological speciation. Thx @dee-unil.bsky.social
Plastic Germination, Temporal Niche Partitioning and Emergent Assortative Mating in Annual Plants
Temporal environmental fluctuations can drive genetic diversity and species coexistence via the storage effect. Using eco-evolutionary models of annual plants, we show that adaptive plasticity in see...
