Tip** points in the dynamics of speciation
Speciation can be gradual or sudden and involve few or many genetic changes. Inferring the
processes generating such patterns is difficult, and may require consideration of emergent …

Theoretical models of the influence of genomic architecture on the dynamics of speciation
A long‐standing problem in evolutionary biology has been determining whether and how
gradual, incremental changes at the gene level can account for rapid speciation and bursts …

Genetic hitchhiking and the dynamic buildup of genomic divergence during speciation with gene flow
A major issue in evolutionary biology is explaining patterns of differentiation observed in
population genomic data, as divergence can be due to both direct selection on a locus and …

Spatial‐temporal stratifications in natural populations and how they affect understanding and estimation of effective population size
RS Waples - Molecular Ecology Resources, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
The concept of effective population size (Ne) is based on an elegantly simple idea which,
however, rapidly becomes very complex when applied to most real‐world situations. In …

The genetic architecture of hybrid incompatibilities and their effect on barriers to introgression in secondary contact
D Lindtke, CA Buerkle - Evolution, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Genetic incompatibilities are an important component of reproductive isolation. Although
theoretical studies have addressed their evolution, little is known about their maintenance …

A plea for simultaneously considering matrix quality and local environmental conditions when analysing landscape impacts on effective dispersal
FJ Pflüger, N Balkenhol - 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Landscape genetics has tremendous potential for enhancing our understanding about
landscape effects on effective dispersal and resulting genetic structures. However, the vast …

Genome-wide congealing and rapid transitions across the speciation continuum during speciation with gene flow
Our current understanding of speciation is often based on considering a relatively small
number of genes, sometimes in isolation of one another. Here, we describe a possible …

Uncovering the genetic basis of adaptive change: on the intersection of landscape genomics and theoretical population genetics
A workshop recently held at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL,
Switzerland) was dedicated to understanding the genetic basis of adaptive change, taking …

Early-warning signals of impending speciation
Species formation is a central topic in biology, and a large body of theoretical work has
explored the conditions under which speciation occurs, including whether speciation …

Transitions from single-to multi-locus processes during speciation with gene flow
During speciation-with-gene-flow, a transition from single-locus to multi-locus processes can
occur, as strong coupling of multiple loci creates a barrier to gene flow. Testing predictions …
