Hybridization has played an important role in the evolution of many lineages. With the
growing availability of genomic tools and advancements in genomic analyses, it is becoming …

Summary Publication of The Genetics of Colonizing Species in 1965 launched the field of
invasion genetics and highlighted the value of biological invasions as natural ecological and …

Species can be defined as populations that are diagnosably distinct, reproductively isolated,
cohesive, or exclusive groups of organisms. Boundaries between species in sympatry are …

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 …

It has long been recognized that hybridization and polyploidy are prominent processes in
plant evolution. Although classically recognized as significant in speciation and adaptation …

The evolutionary significance of hybridization and subsequent introgression has long been
appreciated, but evaluation of the genome-wide effects of these phenomena has only …

Background Unravelling domestication processes is crucial for understanding how species
respond to anthropogenic pressures, forecasting crop responses to future global changes …

How common is speciation‐with‐gene‐flow? How much does gene flow impact on
speciation? To answer questions like these requires understanding of the common …

In allopatric populations, geographical separation simultaneously isolates the entire
genome, allowing genetic divergence to accumulate virtually anywhere in the genome. In …

Genomic studies of speciation often report the presence of highly differentiated genomic
regions interspersed within a milieu of weakly diverged loci. The formation of these …
