Niche partitioning among sexual and unisexual Ambystoma salamanders
Organisms that have ecologically similar sexual and asexual forms present an evolutionary
puzzle, as theory predicts that eventually one form should eliminate the other. However, both …

Locomotor endurance predicts differences in realized dispersal between sympatric sexual and unisexual salamanders
Dispersal is the central mechanism that determines connectivity between populations yet
few studies connect the mechanisms of movement with realized dispersal in natural …

High intraguild predator density induces thinning effects on and increases temporal overlap with prey populations
TL Anderson, RD Semlitsch - Population Ecology, 2014 - Springer
Intraguild (IG) predator density can alter its effects on intraguild prey populations through
several mechanisms, including density-dependent processes that affect IG predator traits …

[PDF][PDF] A 14-year study of amphibian populations and metacommunities
R Brodman - Herpetological Conservation and Biology, 2009 - herpconbio.org
I used data from a 14 year survey of the amphibian fauna (14 species) in Jasper County,
Indiana, USA, to detect population and diversity trends, and to test hypotheses regarding the …

Cryptic sex? Estimates of genome exchange in unisexual mole salamanders (Ambystoma sp.)
Cryptic sex has been argued to explain the exceptional longevity of certain parthenogenetic
vertebrate lineages, yet direct measurements of genetic exchange between sexual and …

Survivorship of Ploidy-variable Unisexual Ambystoma Salamanders Across Developmental Stages
C Teltser, KR Greenwald - Herpetologica, 2015 - meridian.allenpress.com
Populations of unisexual Ambystoma salamanders typically consist of ploidy-variable
individuals (diploid through pentaploid) that differ in their proportional representation within …

Inter-and intra-specific dietary overlap in predacious bi-phasic salamanders
When multiple species with similar trophic niches co-occur in an ecosystem, foraging,
refuge, and breeding microhabitats are predicted to be partitioned in order to enable their …

Genome-specific histories of divergence and introgression between an allopolyploid unisexual salamander lineage and two ancestral sexual species
Quantifying introgression between sexual species and polyploid lineages traditionally
thought to be asexual is an important step in understanding what drives the longevity of …

Niche determinants in a salamander complex: Does hybridism or reproductive parasitism explain patterns of distribution?
Organisms with multiple biotic attributes may also have conflicting niche determinants, and
we assessed whether the realized niche reflects single or multiple biotic attributes. A group …
