Identifying direct and indirect associations among traits by merging phylogenetic comparative methods and structural equation models

Abstract Traits underlie organismal responses to their environment and are essential to predict community responses to environmental conditions under global change. Species differ in life‐history traits, morphometrics, diet type, reproductive characteristics and habitat utilization. Trait associatio...
