Ecological processes are central to the formation of new species when barriers to gene flow
(reproductive isolation) evolve between populations as a result of ecologically‐based …

Recent years have seen a debate over various methods that could objectively prioritize
conservation value below the species level. Most prominent among these has been the …

Genomic scans of multiple populations often reveal marker loci with greatly increased
differentiation between populations. Often this differentiation coincides in space with …

Phylogeographic, nested clade, and mismatch analyses of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)
variation were used to infer the temporal dynamics of distributional and demographic history …

The Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus exhibits 1–4 sympatric morphs in postglacial lakes, of
which one or two are epibenthic zoobenthos feeders, one is a limnetic planktivore and one …

We investigated the interplay between natural selection and gene flow in the adaptive
divergence of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) that reside parapatrically in …

During speciation-with-gene-flow, effective migration varies across the genome as a function
of several factors, including proximity of selected loci, recombination rate, strength of …

In contrast to the large amount of ecological information supporting the role of natural
selection as a main cause of population divergence and speciation, an understanding of the …

There is ample empirical evidence that phenotypic diversification in an adaptive radiation is
the outcome of divergent natural selection related to differential resource use. In contrast, the …

Parallel divergence across replicated species pairs occurring in similar environmental
contrasts may arise through distinct evolutionary scenarios. Deciphering whether such …
