Diversity in warning coloration: selective paradox or the norm?

ES Briolat, ER Burdfield‐Steel, SC Paul… - Biological …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Aposematic theory has historically predicted that predators should select for warning signals
to converge on a single form, as a result of frequency‐dependent learning. However …

The persistence of polymorphisms across species radiations

GA Jamie, JI Meier - Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2020 - cell.com
Studies on polymorphisms have been foundational to our understanding of evolution. The
presence of different phenotypic morphs is sometimes considered a precursor to speciation …

[LIVRO][B] Avoiding attack: the evolutionary ecology of crypsis, aposematism, and mimicry

GD Ruxton, WL Allen, TN Sherratt, MP Speed - 2019 - books.google.com
Avoiding Attack discusses the diversity of mechanisms by which prey avoid predator attacks
and explores how such defensive mechanisms have evolved through natural selection. It …

Hybridization can promote adaptive radiation by means of transgressive segregation

K Kagawa, G Takimoto - Ecology Letters, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Understanding the mechanisms of rapid adaptive radiation has been a central problem of
evolutionary ecology. Recently, there is a growing recognition that hybridization between …

Hybrid speciation driven by multilocus introgression of ecological traits

N Rosser, F Seixas, LM Queste, B Cama, R Mori-Pezo… - Nature, 2024 - nature.com
Hybridization allows adaptations to be shared among lineages and may trigger the evolution
of new species,. However, convincing examples of homoploid hybrid speciation remain rare …

The integrative biology of genetic dominance

S Billiard, V Castric, V Llaurens - Biological Reviews, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Dominance is a basic property of inheritance systems describing the link between a diploid
genotype at a single locus and the resulting phenotype. Models for the evolution of …

Polymorphism at a mimicry supergene maintained by opposing frequency-dependent selection pressures

M Chouteau, V Llaurens… - Proceedings of the …, 2017 - National Acad Sciences
Explaining the maintenance of adaptive diversity within populations is a long-standing goal
in evolutionary biology, with important implications for conservation, medicine, and …

What shapes the continuum of reproductive isolation? Lessons from Heliconius butterflies

C Mérot, C Salazar, RM Merrill… - Proceedings of the …, 2017 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The process by which species evolve can be illuminated by investigating barriers that limit
gene flow between taxa. Recent radiations, such as Heliconius butterflies, offer the …

Weak warning signals can persist in the absence of gene flow

JP Lawrence, B Rojas, A Fouquet… - Proceedings of the …, 2019 - National Acad Sciences
Aposematic organisms couple conspicuous warning signals with a secondary defense to
deter predators from attacking. Novel signals of aposematic prey are expected to be …
