Predicting the outcomes of adaptation is a major goal of evolutionary biology. When
temporal changes in the environment mirror spatial gradients, it opens up the potential for …

Adaptation to extreme environments often involves the evolution of dramatic physiological
changes. To better understand how organisms evolve these complex phenotypic changes …

Classic theory for density-dependent selection for delayed maturation requires that a
population be regulated through some combination of adult fecundity and/or juvenile …

Experimental introductions of species have provided some of the most tractable examples of
rapid phenotypic changes, which may reflect plasticity, the impact of stochastic processes, or …

The rate of germline mutation is fundamental to evolutionary processes, as it generates the
variation upon which selection acts. The guppy, Poecilia reticulata, is a model of rapid …

The repeatability of evolution at the genetic level has been demonstrated to vary along a
continuum from complete parallelism to divergence. In order to better understand why this …

The intimate linkage of ecology and evolution is central to our understanding of biodiversity.
The traditional perspective was to separate these fields based on timescales, but rapid …

The phenomenon of parallel evolution, whereby similar genomic and phenotypic changes
occur across replicated pairs of population or species, is widely studied. Nevertheless, the …

This study aimed study the genetic diversity and differentiation of Asian horseshoe crab
Tachypleus gigas (Müller, 1785) populations across three distinct locations in Peninsular …

Abstract In his 1931 monograph, Sewall Wright predicted genetic drift would overwhelm
selection in very small populations, and selection would dominate in large ones, but also …
