Genome of the Parasitoid Wasp Diachasma alloeum, an Emerging Model for Ecological Speciation and Transitions to Asexual Reproduction
Parasitoid wasps are among the most speciose animals, yet have relatively few available
genomic resources. We report a draft genome assembly of the wasp Diachasma alloeum …

Genomic differentiation during speciation-with-gene-flow: comparing geographic and host-related variation in divergent life history adaptation in Rhagoletis pomonella
A major goal of evolutionary biology is to understand how variation within populations gets
partitioned into differences between reproductively isolated species. Here, we examine the …

Sequential speciation and the diversity of parasitic insects
A major issue in biology is what generates biodiversity. An important part of the answer may
be biodiversity itself. As new species form they may often create new niches, providing an …

Multitrait, host-associated divergence among sets of butterfly populations: implications for reproductive isolation and ecological speciation
When populations use different resources, they tend to diverge in traits that affect
performance on those resources. The extent and complexity of divergence that is achieved …
