What is Interspecific competition linked with?

1

Studies link Interspecific competition with 1 measure, most often selection favoring longer zooid longevity (1 study).

Selection favoring longer zooid longevity

upin S. marine1

1 study

  1. Interspecific competition is associated with selection favoring longer zooid longevity in S. marine.

    “In environments where interspecific competition is high, selection favours colonies with longer zooid (module) longevity for colonies that initially received high levels of maternal investment.”
