TL;DR: A distillation of questions about the mechanisms of speciation, the genetic basis of speciating and the relationship between speciation and diversity are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of divergent female mating preference in response to experimental sexual selection
TL;DR: The results suggest that female preference has coevolved with male signal, in opposite directions between the sexual selection treatments, providing direct evidence of the ability of sexual selection to drive the divergent coevolution of mating traits between populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sexual selection and assortative mating: an experimental test.
TL;DR: Examination of potential assortative mating between populations of Drosophila pseudoobscura under increased or decreased sexual selection intensity for 100 generations suggests that if populations differ in the intensity of sexual selection, effects on mate competition may overcome mate choice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mate choice intensifies motor signalling in Drosophila

TL;DR: It is shown that manipulating the opportunity for sexual selection led to changes in song production rate and singing endurance, with males from the polyandrous populations producing faster song rates over longer time periods than males from monogamous populations.
