Journal ArticleDOI
The biogeography of mitochondrial and nuclear discordance in animals
David P. L. Toews,Alan Brelsford +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of known cases of mito-nuclear discordance in animal systems and summarize the biogeographic patterns in each instance and identify common drivers of discordance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plumage Genes and Little Else Distinguish the Genomes of Hybridizing Warblers
David P. L. Toews,Scott A. Taylor,Rachel Vallender,Alan Brelsford,Bronwyn G. Butcher,Philipp W. Messer,Irby J. Lovette +6 more
TL;DR: The more general pattern of genomic similarity between these warblers likely results from a protracted period of hybridization, contradicting the broadly accepted hypothesis that admixture results from solely anthropogenic habitat change in the past two centuries.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Evolution and Genetics of Carotenoid Processing in Animals
TL;DR: This work reviews recent progress in the genetics of carotenoid processing and focuses on examples from several classes of genes coding for scavenger receptors, β-carotene oxygenases, and ketolases, finding that they are conserved across deep phylogenetic timescales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryptic speciation in a Holarctic passerine revealed by genetic and bioacoustic analyses.
TL;DR: It is indicated that the two forms are reproductively isolated to a high degree where they co‐occur and are therefore separate species, and it is suggested that sexual selection played a larger role than habitat divergence in generating reproductive isolation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Migration, mitochondria, and the yellow-rumped warbler
TL;DR: Investigation of the link between mitochondrial introgression, mitochondrial function, and migration using novel genetic, isotopic, biochemical, and phenotypic data obtained from populations in the transition zone demonstrates that myrtle‐type individuals have a significantly greater acceptor control ratio of mitochondria, suggesting it may be more metabolically efficient.
