Migration is the regular seasonal movement of animals from one place to another, often from
a breeding site to a nonbreeding site and back. Because the act of migration makes it …

Population genetics has come of age. Three important components have come together:
efficient techniques to examine informative segments of DNA, statistics to analyse DNA data …

Arlequin ver 3.0 is a software package integrating several basic and advanced methods for
population genetics data analysis, like the computation of standard genetic diversity indices …

We derive a general model, based on principles of biochemical kinetics and allometry, that
characterizes the effects of temperature and body mass on metabolic rate. The model fits …

Genetic assignment methods use genotype likelihoods to draw inference about where
individuals were or were not born, potentially allowing direct, real‐time estimates of …

Long‐distance seed dispersal influences many key aspects of the biology of plants,
including spread of invasive species, metapopulation dynamics, and diversity and dynamics …

Given the explosive development of new molecular marker techniques over the last decade,
newcomers and experts alike in the field of DNA fingerprinting will find an easy-to-follow …

Although highly variable loci, such as microsatellite loci, are revolutionizing both
evolutionary and conservation biology, data from these loci need to be carefully evaluated …

A new method for assigning individuals of unknown origin to populations, based on the
genetic distance between individuals and populations, was compared to two existing …

Sex‐biased dispersal is an almost ubiquitous feature of mammalian life history, but the
evolutionary causes behind these patterns still require much clarification. A quarter of a …
