Development and growth in synanthropic species: plasticity and constraints

Kralj-Fiser, Simona; Celik, Tatjana; Lokovsek, Tjasa; Suen, Klavdija; Siling, Rebeka; Kuntner, Matjaž (2014)

Urbanization poses serious extinction risks, yet some species thrive in urban environments. This may be due to a pronounced developmental plasticity in these taxa, since phenotypically, plastic organisms may better adjust ...
A glimpse into the sexual biology of the "zygiellid" spider genus <I>Leviellus</I>

Kralj-Fiser, Simona; Gregoric, Matjaz; Lokovsek, Tjasa; Celik, Tatjana; Kuntner, Matjaž (2013)

We investigated the mating biology of the previously unstudied central European spider Leviellus thorelli (Ausserer 1871) by staging laboratory mating trials using males and females of varying mating histories. Our aim was ...
Golden Orbweavers Ignore Biological Rules: Phylogenomic and Comparative Analyses Unravel a Complex Evolution of Sexual Size Dimorphism

Kuntner, Matjaž; Hamilton, Chris A.; Cheng, Ren-Chung; Gregoric, Matjaz; Lupse, Nik; Lokovsek, Tjasa; Lemmon, Emily Moriarty; Lemmon, Alan R.; Agnarsson, Ingi; Coddington, Jonathan A.; Bond, Jason E. (2019)

Instances of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) provide the context for rigorous tests of biological rules of size evolution, such as Cope's rule (phyletic size increase), Rensch's rule (allometric patterns of male and ...
