Selection on a behaviour‐related gene during the first stages of the biological invasion pathway

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2017
Human‐induced biological invasions are common worldwide and often have negative impacts on wildlife and human societies. Several studies have shown evidence for selection on invaders after introduction to the new range.
