Reciprocal Transplant Reveals Sources Of Variation In Growth Rates Of The Lizard Sceloporus Undulatus, Peter Niewiarowski, Willem Roosenburg

Dr. Peter H. Niewiarowski

Geographic variation in life history phenotypes between population of a single species is often assumed to reflect genetic divergence caused by natural selection. The relative contribution of genetic and environmental sources of phenotypic variation is plasticity induced by proximate environmental variation and genetic divergence is fundamental to understanding the ecological and evolutionary significance of geographic variation.

Effects Of Supplemental Feeding And Thermal Environment On Growth Rates Of Eastern Fence Lizards, Sceloporus Undulatus, Peter Niewiarowski

Dr. Peter H. Niewiarowski

Geographic variation in growth rates of the eastern fence lizard, Sceloporus undulatus, is extensive and has been interpreted in various ways.
