When gene flow really matters: gene flow in applied evolutionary biology [PDF]

open access: yesEvolutionary 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, and individuals as well as over time. It frequently occurs at rates sufficient to play an important

Ancient Migratory Events in the Middle East: New Clues from the Y-Chromosome Variation of Modern Iranians [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Knowledge of high resolution Y-chromosome haplogroup diversification within Iran provides important geographic context regarding the spread and compartmentalization of male lineages in the Middle East and southwestern Asia.

Dispersal and gene flow in free-living marine nematodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dispersal and gene flow determine connectivity among populations, and can be studied through population genetics and phylogeography. We here review the results of such a framework for free-living marine nematodes.

Diffuse flow environments within basalt- and sediment-based hydrothermal vent ecosystems harbor specialized microbial communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Hydrothermal vents differ both in surface input and subsurface geochemistry. The effects of these differences on their microbial communities are not clear.

Mitochondrial gene flow. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings 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.

Genome‐scale phylogeography resolves the native population structure of the Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky)

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2022
Human‐assisted movement has allowed the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky)) to spread beyond its native range and become a globally regulated invasive pest.

Local thermal adaptation and limited gene flow constrain future climate responses of a marine ecosystem engineer

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2020
Rising ocean temperatures and extreme temperature events have precipitated declines and local extinctions in many marine species globally, but patterns of loss are often uneven across species ranges for reasons that are poorly understood.

Pattern of population structuring between Belgian and Estonian bumblebees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Several population genetic studies investigated the extent of gene flow and population connectivity in bumblebees. In general, no restriction in gene flow is considered for mainland populations of common bumblebee species.

Genetic variation within and among naturally regenerating populations of alder (Alnus glutinosa)

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
To assess the inter- and intrapopulation genetic variation in the filial generation (F1) of alder (Alnus glutinosa (L.) Gaertn.), 11 naturally regenerated populations were analysed. Their parental populations (P), represent the whole Polish territory and

Local adaptation with high gene flow: temperature parameters drive adaptation to altitude in the common frog (Rana temporaria) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Both environmental and genetic influences can result in phenotypic variation. Quantifying the relative contributions of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity to phenotypes is key to understanding the effect of environmental variation on populations.
