When gene flow really matters: gene flow in applied evolutionary biology [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, 2016 In the last half century, gene flow has moved from relative obscurity to a well‐recognized component of evolution. Gene flow, the successful transfer of alleles from one population to another, is now known to vary considerably among species, populations,

Butterfly gene flow goes berserk [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2016 This is the final version of the article. Available from the publisher via the DOI in this record.A new study shows that genomic introgression between two Heliconius butterfly species is not solely confined to color pattern loci.The authors work on ...

Gene flow in Plantago I. Gene flow and neighbourhood size in P. lanceolata [PDF]
Heredity, 1986 The genetic population structure and gene flow in the obligatory outbreeding plant species Plantago lanceolata L. were determined in the Westduinen (Wd) pasture population in the South-West of the Netherlands. Three experiments were performed: the measurement of genetic structure using allozyme variation, pollen flow in a wind-tunnel and the ...

Restricted dispersal in a sea of gene flow [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2021 How far do marine larvae disperse in the ocean? Decades of population genetic studies have revealed generally low levels of genetic structure at large spatial scales (hundreds of kilometres). Yet this result, typically based on discrete sampling designs, does not necessarily imply extensive dispersal. Here, we adopt a continuous sampling strategy along

Species Delimitation with Gene Flow [PDF]
Systematic Biology, 2016 Species are commonly thought to be evolutionarily independent in a way that populations within a species are not. In recent years, studies that seek to identify evolutionarily independent lineages (i.e., to delimit species) using genetic data have typically adopted multispecies coalescent approaches that assume that evolutionary independence is formed ...

Mitochondrial gene flow. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1984 To account for the transmission of mitochondrial DNA between conspecific species Drosophila pseudoobscura and D. persimilis in sympatry reported by J.R. Powell [Powell, J.R. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 80, 492-495], a simple model of gene flow and selection in infinite populations is analyzed.

Targeted gene flow for conservation [PDF]
Conservation Biology, 2016 AbstractAnthropogenic threats often impose strong selection on affected populations, causing rapid evolutionary responses. Unfortunately, these adaptive responses are rarely harnessed for conservation. We suggest that conservation managers pay close attention to adaptive processes and geographic variation, with an eye to using them for conservation ...

Polyploidy breaks speciation barriers in Australian burrowing frogs Neobatrachus [PDF]
, 2020 Polyploidy has played an important role in evolution across the tree of life but it is still unclear how polyploid lineages may persist after their initial formation.

eLife, 2017 The temporal regulation of protein abundance and post-translational modifications is a key feature of cell division. Recently, we analysed gene expression and protein abundance changes during interphase under minimally perturbed conditions (Ly et al ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Genetic differentiation between populations is determined by various factors, including gene flow, selection, mutation, and genetic drift. Among these, gene flow is known to counter genetic differentiation.
