Journal ArticleDOI
Avoidance of novel objects by rabbits (oryctolagus cuniculus l.)
TL;DR: The measured avoidance and its attenuation indicate that rabbits assessed and responded to their surroundings with high precision, with significant individual variation consistent over stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetic outcomes of sex and recombination in long-term functionally parthenogenetic lineages of Australian Sitobion aphids.
Anastasia Wilson,Paul Sunnucks +1 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that strong biases in the transmission of X chromosomes through the sexual cycle are likely to be widespread in aphids, and discusses several possible alternatives, including mutation accumulation during periods of functional asexuality and genetic imprinting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple mating strategies explain unexpected genetic mixing of New Zealand fur seals with two congenerics in a recently recolonized population.
TL;DR: An important consequence of low heterospecific discrimination in a sympatric population of long‐lived mammals is illustrated, indicating that males successfully utilize strategies other than territory holding to achieve paternities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pleistocene divergence across a mountain range and the influence of selection on mitogenome evolution in threatened Australian freshwater cod species.
Katherine A. Harrisson,Alexandra Pavlova,Han Ming Gan,Yin Peng Lee,Christopher M. Austin,Paul Sunnucks +5 more
TL;DR: Results supported mid- to late-Pleistocene divergence of Maccullochella across the GDR (220–710 thousand years ago), bringing forward previously reported dates and explored the relative influences of purifying and positive selection in the evolution of mitogenome divergence among species.
