概括
变暖的温度改变了不同的植物防御相互作用,影响了虫-真菌关系,但提高了捕食者-草食者动态. 黑桃苗对这些短期变化表现出弹性,这表明三系统的反应各不相同.
科学领域:
- 生态生态学 生态生态学
- 气候变化生物学 气候变化生物学
- 植物与昆虫的相互作用
背景情况:
- 植物通过三营养相互作用利用间接防御,其中互惠主义者提供对草食动物和病原体的保护.
- 气候变化需要了解温度对这些植物防御策略的影响.
- 在一个单一的植物系统内,多个三性相互作用对温度的差异反应仍然不太清楚.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究温度升高对黑桃 (Prunus serotina) 两种特异性三巨型防御相互作用的影响.
- 为了确定同一植物系统内的不同防御相互作用是否对变暖有统一的反应.
主要方法:
- 黑桃苗被暴露在环境和温度上升10周.
- 监测的重点是 mite-domatia-真菌相互作用和捕食者-草食者动态.
- 在物种丰富度,相互作用强度和草食水平上的量化变化.
主要成果:
- 变暖增强了虫丰富度与多马的大小关系,但削弱了虫丰富度与叶状真菌的关系.
- 温度的升高显著增加了节肢动物捕食者的丰富性,并减少了草食.
- 尽管相互作用发生了变化,但变暖并没有影响虫,真菌或食草动物的丰富性,捕食者对食草动物的影响也没有.
结论:
- 温度对植物系统内的不同三营养相互作用有着不同的影响.
- 黑桃表现出对物种相互作用中温度诱导的转变的短期稳定性,对植物生长没有重大影响.
- 研究结果强调了变暖对植物间接防御机制的影响不均.

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress
14.7K
Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Frequency-dependent Selection
23.1K
When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.

Predator-Prey Interactions
21.1K
Predators consume prey for energy. Predators that acquire prey and prey that avoid predation both increase their chances of survival and reproduction (i.e., fitness). Routine predator-prey interactions elicit mutual adaptations that improve predator offenses, such as claws, teeth, and speed, as well as prey defenses, including crypsis, aposematism, and mimicry. Thus, predator-prey interactions resemble an evolutionary arms race.

Defenses Against Pathogens and Herbivores
29.5K
Plants present a rich source of nutrients for many organisms, making it a target for herbivores and infectious agents. Plants, though lacking a proper immune system, have developed an array of constitutive and inducible defenses to fend off these attacks.

Background and Environment Affect Phenotype
7.4K
Although the genetic makeup of an organism plays a major role in determining the phenotype, there are also several environmental factors, such as temperature, oxygen availability, presence of mutagens, that can alter an organism’s phenotype.
An example of how genetic background affects phenotype can be seen in horses. The Extension gene in horses is responsible for their coat color. A wild-type gene (EE) produces black pigment in the coat, while a mutant gene (ee) produces red pigment. A...

Types of Selection
43.9K
Natural selection influences the frequencies of particular alleles and phenotypes within populations in several different ways. Primarily, natural selection can be directional, stabilizing, or disruptive. Directional selection favors one extreme trait and shifts the population towards that phenotype while selecting against individuals displaying alternate traits. Stabilizing selection favors an intermediate trait with a narrow range of variation. Deviation from the optimal phenotype towards an...
