(with C.J. Murren, Evolution, 2003).<br /><br />Species as family resemblance concepts: the (dis-)solution of the species problem? (BioEssays, 2003). <br /><br />Jack of all trades, master of some? On the role of phenotypic plasticity in plant invasions (with C.L. Richards, O. Bossdorf, N.Z. Muth and J. Gurevitch, Ecology Letters, 2006).<br /><br />Do we need an extended evolutionary synthesis? (Evolution, 2007).<br /><br />Finding the way in phenotypic space: the origin and maintenance of constraints on organismal form (American Journal of Botany, 2007).<br /><br />Is evolvability evolvable? (Nature Reviews Genetics, 2008).<br /><br />The proper role of population genetics in modern evolutionary theory (Biological Theory, 2008).<br />ICAROhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01011489587453349908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15005476.post-6892590265911941822013-09-04T07:45:23.604-04:002013-09-04T07:45:23.604-04:00This inspires me to (re)collect the lists of my pu...This inspires me to (re)collect the lists of my publications and patents. I wrote most in a corporate research lab after brief bits in two university research labs. I think the most famous person I knew was John Tukey (at Princeton). He invented the word 'bit'.Philip Thrifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03021615111948806998noreply@blogger.com
