In the past decade, advances in genome sequencing have allowed researchers to uncover
the history of hybridization in diverse groups of species, including our own. Although the …

Speciation, the evolution of reproductive isolation among populations, is continuous,
complex, and involves multiple, interacting barriers. Until it is complete, the effects of this …

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

Although genome scans have become a popular approach towards understanding the
genetic basis of local adaptation, the field still does not have a firm grasp on how sampling …

Hybridization has many and varied impacts on the process of speciation. Hybridization may
slow or reverse differentiation by allowing gene flow and recombination. It may accelerate …

As the data resulting from modern genoty** tools are astoundingly complex, genoty**
studies require great care in the sampling design, genoty**, data analysis and …

Abstract The European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is a temperate-zone euryhaline
teleost of prime importance for aquaculture and fisheries. This species is subdivided into two …

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

Speciation, that is, the evolution of reproductive barriers eventually leading to complete
isolation, is a crucial process generating biodiversity. Recent work has contributed much to …

Estimating the rate of exchange of individuals among populations is a central concern to
evolutionary ecology and its applications to conservation and management. For instance …
