Ergon, Torbjørn; Ergon, Rolf; Begon, Mike; Telfer, Sandra; Lambin, Xavier (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Delayed density-dependent demographic processes are thought to be the basis for multi-annual cyclic fluctuations in small rodent populations, but evidence for delayed density dependence of a particular demographic trait ... -
When three traits make a line: evolution of phenotypic plasticity and genetic assimilation through linear reaction norms in stochastic environments
Ergon, Torbjørn; Ergon, Rolf (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Genetic assimilation emerges from selection on phenotypic plasticity. Yet, commonly used quantitative genetics models of linear reaction norms con- sidering intercept and slope as traits do not mimic the full process of ...
