Urbanization Alters Swimming Performance of a Stream Fish

Kern, E. M. A., & Langerhans, R. B. (2019, January 7). Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution.

By: E. Kern n & R. Langerhans  n

author keywords: biomechanics; contemporary evolution; Creek Chub; land use; phenotypic plasticity; Semotilus atromaculatus; urbanization; whole-organism performance
topics (OpenAlex): Fish Ecology and Management Studies; Fish biology, ecology, and behavior; Physiological and biochemical adaptations
TL;DR: It is tested how urbanization, an important type of global disturbance, influences fish swimming performance in urban streams, and reared individuals collected as fry from four populations with different urbanization histories found evidence for genetically based differences in swimming kinematics.

2016 article

Correlated evolution of personality, morphology and performance

Kern, E. M. A., Robinson, D., Gass, E., Godwin, J., & Langerhans, R. B. (2016, June 2). Animal Behaviour, Vol. 117, pp. 79–86.

By: E. Kern n, D. Robinson n, E. Gass n, J. Godwin n  & R. Langerhans n 

author keywords: behavioural syndrome; morphology; personality; pleiotropy; stress coping style; swimming performance; zebrafish
topics (OpenAlex): Animal Behavior and Reproduction; Amphibian and Reptile Biology; Fish Ecology and Management Studies
TL;DR: It is indicated that evolution of personality can result in concomitant changes in morphology and whole-organism performance, and vice versa. (via Semantic Scholar)
