Differing selection in alternative competitive environments: shade-avoidance responses and germination timingC Weinig
Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington 47405, USA
Evolution 54:124-36. 2000..Environments that differ in the timing of competition for light select for elongation at different life-history stages, and this selection depends on the timing of emergence...
Plasticity versus canalization: population differences in the timing of shade-avoidance responsesC Weinig
Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington 47405, USA
Evolution 54:441-51. 2000..The decreased responsiveness of cornfield populations to light quality is consistent with theoretical predictions in which reduced plasticity is favored when environmental cues fail to mediate an adaptive response...
Phenotypic plasticity early in life constrains developmental responses laterC Weinig
Department of Biology, Indiana University, Bloomington 47405, USA
Evolution 55:930-6. 2001..The reduced responsiveness of elongated seedlings to R:FR appeared to result from a structural feedback mechanism, indicating that the opportunity cost of early responses may be lower in environments providing structural support...
