An emerging synthesis between community ecology and evolutionary biology

MTJ Johnson, JR Stinchcombe - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2007 - Elsevier
A synthesis between community ecology and evolutionary biology is emerging that identifies
how genetic variation and evolution within one species can shape the ecological properties
of entire communities and, in turn, how community context can govern evolutionary
processes and patterns. This synthesis incorporates research on the ecology and evolution
within communities over short timescales (community genetics and diffuse coevolution), as
well as macroevolutionary timescales (community phylogenetics and co-diversification of …
