Phylogeny, body morphology, and trophic level shape intestinal traits in coral reef fishes

Phylogeny, body morphology, and trophic level shape intestinal traits in coral reef fishes

Abstract Trait‐based approaches are increasingly used to study species assemblages and understand ecosystem functioning. The strength of these approaches lies in the appropriate choice of functional traits that relate to the functions of interest. However, trait–function relationships are often supp...
