The role of plants in the formation of species-specific features in grass flies (Diptera, Chloropidae, Meromyza) [PDF]

Biodiversity Data Journal, 2021
In the current manuscript, we present the results of comparative analysis of seven species of Meromyza flies in the “variegata” cluster and of the evolutionary close species M. inornata, based the following criteria: 1) 14 external key features; 2) shape

Ancient hybridization fuels rapid cichlid fish adaptive radiations

Nature Communications, 2017
Cichlids underwent a rapid diversification in the Lake Victoria region, expanding to more than 700 species within 150,000 years. Here, Meier and colleagues show that an ancient hybridization between two divergent cichlid lineages generated high genetic ...

Threespine Stickleback in Lake Constance: The Ecology and Genomic Substrate of a Recent Invasion

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Invasive species can be powerful models for studying contemporary evolution in natural environments. As invading organisms often encounter new habitats during colonization, they will experience novel selection pressures.

Evolution of evolution of superbubbles [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1997
AbstractIn the first place, I will summarize the evolution of our picture of the ISM over the past several decades in order to see the importance of superbubbles for ISM structure. In accordance with the progress of observations, the picture of the ISM has dramatically changed from the 1960s.
