Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary divergence in acoustic signals: causes and consequences
TL;DR: A conceptual framework for testing the relative significance of both adaptive and neutral mechanisms leading to acoustic divergence is summarized, predictions for cases where these processes lead to speciation are predicted, and how their relative importance plays out over evolutionary time are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multimodal signalling in the North American barn swallow: a phenotype network approach.
TL;DR: This work integrates model testing with correlation-based phenotype networks to infer the contributions of female mate choice and male–male competition to the evolution of barn swallow communication, and interprets model results in the context of a network of traits.
Journal ArticleDOI
How acoustic signals scale with individual body size: common trends across diverse taxa
Rafael L. Rodríguez,Marcelo Araya-Salas,David A. Gray,Michael S. Reichert,Laurel B. Symes,Matthew R. Wilkins,Rebecca J. Safran,Gerlinde Höbel +7 more
TL;DR: Most acoustic signals do not appear to have been selected to function as indicators of body size and an interplay between the form of selection and body size–related cost/benefit relationships of trait expression has great potential to explain variation in sexual allometries.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic variation across two barn swallow hybrid zones reveals traits associated with divergence in sympatry and allopatry.
Elizabeth S. C. Scordato,Matthew R. Wilkins,Matthew R. Wilkins,Georgy A. Semenov,A. S. Rubtsov,Nolan C. Kane,Rebecca J. Safran +6 more
TL;DR: Traits associated with genome‐wide differentiation in allopatry may also contribute to isolation in sympatry, and potentially important additional roles for evolutionary history and ecology in shaping variation in the extent hybridization between closely related pairs of subspecies are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-wide differentiation in closely related populations: The roles of selection and geographic isolation
Rebecca J. Safran,Elizabeth S. C. Scordato,Matthew R. Wilkins,Matthew R. Wilkins,Joanna K. Hubbard,Joanna K. Hubbard,Brittany D. Jenkins,Tomáš Albrecht,Samuel M. Flaxman,Hakan Karaardıç,Yoni Vortman,Yoni Vortman,Arnon Lotem,Patrik Nosil,Péter L. Pap,Sheng-Feng Shen,Shih-Fan Chan,Thomas L. Parchman,Nolan C. Kane +18 more
TL;DR: It is inferred that morphological adaptation plays a large role in shaping population‐level differentiation in this group of closely related populations.
