Evidence for mitochondrial introgression between Anopheles bwambae and Anopheles gambiae
TL;DR: This work reports the first evidence for introgression between An.
Journal ArticleDOI
Habitat fragmentation and biodiversity: testing for the evolutionary effects of refugia
TL;DR: The need for careful testing of phylogeographic data for evidence of concordance between taxa is discussed, with particular reference to the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
What explains rare and conspicuous colours in a snail? A test of time-series data against models of drift, migration or selection.
TL;DR: The overall conclusion was that multiple mechanisms may contribute to maintaining the polymorphisms of a prey species, and populations varied idiosyncratically as mild or variable colour selection interacted with demographic stochasticity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A phylogeny for grasshoppers of the genus Chitaura (Orthoptera: Acrididae) from Sulawesi, Indonesia, based on mitochondrial DNA sequence data
TL;DR: The phylogenetic hypothesis is consistent with recent interpretations of the geological history of Sulawesi suggesting separate evolution on the island for 7–14 Myr, and with possible effects of tectonic movements in the Cenozoic, Pleistocene climatic, vegetational and sea-level changes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used Littorina saxatilis and found that most of these traits are influenced by two previously detected inversion regions that are divergent between ecotypes, consistent with the hypothesis that suppression of recombination within inversions facilitates differentiation in the presence of gene flow.
