Adaptation, speciation and extinction in the Anthropocene [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2018
Humans have dramatically altered the planet over the course of a century, from the acidity of our oceans to the fragmentation of our landscapes and the temperature of our climate.

Population genomics of local adaptation versus speciation in coral reef fishes (Hypoplectrus spp, Serranidae)

Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Are the population genomic patterns underlying local adaptation and the early stages of speciation similar? Addressing this question requires a system in which (i) local adaptation and the early stages of speciation can be clearly identified and ...

Speciation across depth gradients in reef corals [PDF]

Nature Communications
Ecological speciation through adaptation to different habitats can readily occur without strong geographic isolation when the same traits underlie both ecological divergence and reproductive isolation.

The Evolutionary Genomics of Cichlid Fishes: Explosive Speciation and Adaptation in the Postgenomic Era

Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2014
With more than 1,500 species, cichlid fishes provide textbook examples of recent and diverse adaptive radiations, rapid rates of speciation, and the parallel evolution of adaptive phenotypes among both recently and distantly related lineages.

Genome of the early spider-orchid Ophrys sphegodes provides insights into sexual deception and pollinator adaptation

Nature Communications
Pollinator-driven evolution of floral traits is thought to be a major driver of angiosperm speciation and diversification. Ophrys orchids mimic female insects to lure male pollinators into pseudocopulation.

Adaptive Speciation [PDF]

, 2004
Unraveling the origin of biodiversity is fundamental for understanding our biosphere. This book clarifies how adaptive processes, rather than geographic isolation, can cause speciation. Adaptive speciation occurs when biological interactions induce disruptive selection and the evolution of assortative mating, thus triggering the splitting of lineages ...

Pangenomes as a framework for adaptive radiation, speciation, and adaptation. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Understanding the genomic basis of diversification is a central goal in evolutionary biology. In recent years, the development and use of pangenomes, a genomic representation of multiple individuals within a lineage (a set of related populations, subspecies, ecotypes, or species), has enabled researchers to differentiate ...
