Speciation is a fundamental evolutionary process, the knowledge of which is crucial for
understanding the origins of biodiversity. Genomic approaches are an increasingly …

Coupling has emerged as a concept to describe the transition from differentiated
populations to newly evolved species through the strengthening of reproductive isolation …

The origin of biological diversity, via the formation of new species, can be inextricably linked
to adaptation to the ecological environment. Specifically, ecological processes are central to …

Sexual reproduction is a fundamental aspect of life. It is defined by the occurrence of meiosis
and the fusion of two gametes of different sexes or mating types. Sex-determination …

Speciation with gene flow is greatly facilitated when traits subject to divergent selection also
contribute to non-random mating. Such traits have been called 'magic traits', which could be …

Levels of genetic differentiation between populations can be highly variable across the
genome, with divergent selection contributing to such heterogeneous genomic divergence …

Supergenes are tight clusters of loci that facilitate the co-segregation of adaptive variation,
providing integrated control of complex adaptive phenotypes. Polymorphic supergenes, in …

The large body of theory on speciation with gene flow has brought to light fundamental
differences in the effects of two types of mating rules on speciation: preference/trait rules, in …

Throughout their lives animals must complete many tasks, including finding food, avoiding
predators, attracting mates, and navigating through a complex and dynamic environment …
