Machteld N. Verzijden,Carel ten Cate,Maria R. Servedio,Genevieve M. Kozak,Jenny W. Boughman,Erik I. Svensson +5 more
TL;DR: It is pointed out that the context of learning, namely how and when learning takes place, often makes a crucial difference to the predicted evolutionary outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of learned mating traits on speciation is not yet clear: response to Kawecki.
Machteld N. Verzijden,Carel ten Cate,Maria R. Servedio,Genevieve M. Kozak,Jenny W. Boughman,Erik I. Svensson +5 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that learning of mating traits or cues can expedite genetic change under directional sexual selection and that, if learning enhances pre-existing genetic variation in a specific population, divergence can ensue.
