Understanding the evolutionary consequences of anthropogenic change is imperative for
estimating long‐term species resilience. While contemporary genomic data can provide us …

In natural populations, quantitative trait dynamics often do not appear to follow evolutionary
predictions. Despite abundant examples of natural selection acting on heritable traits …

In episodic environments like deserts, populations of some animal species exhibit irregular
fluctuations such that populations are alternately large and connected or small and isolated …

Abstract Background and Aims Historical changes in environmental conditions and
colonization–extinction dynamics have a direct impact on the genetic structure of plant …

Population genetic analyses of species inhabiting fragmented landscapes are essential
tools for conservation. Occasionally, analyses of fragmented populations find no evidence of …

Background Speciation with gene flow is an alternative to the nascence of new taxa in strict
allopatric separation. Indeed, many taxa have parapatric distributions at present. It is often …

Temporal fluctuations in the strength and direction of selection are often proposed as a
mechanism that slows down evolution, both over geological and contemporary timescales …

Low genetic diversity is associated with low fitness and evolutionary potential, yet the
demographic and life-history traits of some species contribute to low genetic diversity …

Genetic stochasticity and bottlenecking in the course of Pleistocene glaciations have been
identified as threatening the survival of local endemics. However, the mechanisms by which …

Understanding how host dynamics, including variations of population size and dispersal,
may affect the epidemiology of infectious diseases through ecological and evolutionary …
