• Does defoliation frequency and severity influence plant productivity? The role of grazing management and soil nutrients 

      Venter, Alexander Samuel; Hawkins, Heidi-Jayne; Cramer, Michael D. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Rangeland management approaches, including rotational grazing, rely on assumptions about plant growth responses to the intensity, or severity (sward height) plus frequency, of defoliation. We tested these assumptions at ...
    • Does lack of evolvability constrain adaptation? If so, on what time scales? 

      Voje, Kjetil L.; Grabowski, Mark; Holstad, Agnes; Porto, Arthur; Tsuboi, Masahito; Bolstad, Geir Hysing (Chapter, 2023)
      The relevance of genetic constraints for evolutionary change beyond microevolutionary timescales is debated. The high evolvability of natural populations predicts rapid adaptation, but evolvability is often found to correlate ...
