Journal ArticleDOI
Three types of rescue can avert extinction in a changing environment
Ruth A. Hufbauer,Marianna Szűcs,Emily Kasyon,Courtney Youngberg,Michael J. Koontz,Christopher M. Richards,Ty Tuff,Brett A. Melbourne +7 more
TL;DR: The results support the practice of genetic rescue in facilitating adaptation and reducing inbreeding depression, and suggest that demographic rescue alone may suffice in larger populations even if only moderately inbred individuals are available for addition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid adaptive evolution in novel environments acts as an architect of population range expansion
Marianna Szűcs,Megan L. Vahsen,Brett A. Melbourne,C. Hoover,Christopher Weiss-Lehman,Ruth A. Hufbauer +5 more
TL;DR: Experimental evidence demonstrates that rapid evolution drives both population growth and expansion speed and is thus crucial to consider for managing biological invasions and successfully introducing or reintroducing species for management and conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The roles of demography and genetics in the early stages of colonization.
TL;DR: It is suggested that numbers of individuals may drive initial establishment, but that subsequent population growth and spread, even in the first generation of colonization, can be driven by genetic processes, including both reduced growth owing to inbreeding depression, and increased dispersal with increased genetic diversity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Underutilized resources for studying the evolution of invasive species during their introduction, establishment, and lag phases.
Travis D. Marsico,Jennifer W. Burt,Erin K. Espeland,George W. Gilchrist,Mary A. Jamieson,Leena Lindström,George K. Roderick,Sarah M. Swope,Marianna Szűcs,Neil D. Tsutsui +9 more
TL;DR: This study argues that three disparate data sources that can provide insights into evolutionary processes associated with invasion success: biological control organisms, horticultural introductions, and natural history collections could find widespread use with a few additional pieces of data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eco-evolutionary dynamics of range expansion
Tom E. X. Miller,Amy L. Angert,Carissa D. Brown,Julie A. Lee-Yaw,Julie A. Lee-Yaw,Mark A. Lewis,Frithjof Lutscher,Nathan G. Marculis,Nathan G. Marculis,Brett A. Melbourne,Allison K. Shaw,Marianna Szűcs,Olivia Tabares,Takuji Usui,Christopher Weiss-Lehman,Jennifer L. Williams +15 more
TL;DR: A framework for understanding the joint influence of these processes in changing the mean and variance of expansion speed and its underlying traits is developed, and unexpected diversity in how evolution can influence variability in speed-results not well predicted by current theory is highlighted.
