In this article researchers from CIEE-CESAB working group 'FISHGLOB,' organized by Bastien Mérigot (Montpellier University) and Maria Lourdes (Deng) Palomares (UBC), demonstrate phylogenetic structural-equation mixed-trait imputation using 33 variables representing life history, reproductive, size, and behavioural traits for all known fish in the world. Imputed traits are used to classify all fishes into life-history types, and confirm a phylogenetic signal in three dominant life-history strategies in fishes. https://doi.org/10.1111/2041-210X.14076 |
