Abstract. Recombination diversifies offspring genomes and helps ensure chromosome segregation during meiosis. Mutation rates are elevated near crossovers d

Abstract. Replicated hybrid zones between ecotypes established over environmental gradients provide an opportunity to study the genomic architecture of bar

Adaptive radiations generate remarkable morphological diversity, yet traits often diversify at different rates and modes, producing mosaic patterns of evolution. Modularity, the semiautonomous organization of traits, can shape how selection and ...

Abstract. Whole-genome duplication (WGD), a widespread macromutation across eukaryotes, is predicted to affect the tempo and modes of evolutionary processe

In 2000, researchers thought they found the oldest fossil octopus, which lived over 300 million years ago. But it may just be a half-rotten nautilus.

Maintaining genetic connectivity is a central requirement for the long-term persistence of wide-ranging wildlife populations in increasingly human-modified landscapes. Population genetic approaches pr...
