do some lit review on pheno-phylo #452

I tasked this to myself as I realized how out of the loop I am on pheno phylo ... I did some ISI searches today, looking for:

Here are some refs to consider including (I am adding them to the bib):

We showed that leaf unfolding date and its sensitivities to daily mean, minimum and maximum temperatures did not exhibit overall significant phylogenetic signals. Moreover, the sensitivity of leaf unfolding date to daily minimum temperature exhibited phylogenetic antisignal at species level, which indicated the trait difference among close relatives exceed that among distantly related lineages. However, there were overall significant phylogenetic signals in growing-degree-days and the average level of each of daily mean, minimum and maximum temperatures experienced by plants before leaf unfolding date. ...

Additionally, lots of papers use PGLS, but don't focus on it including ...

This is not relevant for us, but here's a paper saying tagging is not good for birds (one of my personal complaints to bird researchers)! "Weak effects of geolocators on small birds: A meta-analysis controlled for phylogeny and publication bias" (and I am betting reviewers made them change the title to 'weak effects').

Even though the effects were not statistically significant in phylogenetically controlled models, we found a weak negative impact of geolocators on apparent survival. The negative effect on apparent survival was stronger with increasing relative load of the device and with geolocators attached using elastic harnesses. Moreover, tagging effects were stronger in smaller species. In conclusion, we found a weak effect on apparent survival of tagged birds and managed to pinpoint key aspects and drivers of tagging effects.
