Journal ArticleDOI
Pervasive genetic associations between traits causing reproductive isolation in Heliconius butterflies
TL;DR: This genetic architecture in which ‘speciation genes’ are clustered in the genome can facilitate two controversial models of speciation, namely divergence in the face of gene flow and hybrid speciation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Source pool geometry and the assembly of continental avifaunas
Gary R. Graves,Carsten Rahbek +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the implications of source pool geometry on the assembly of avian communities with an analysis of assemblage dispersion fields, which can be visualized by overlaying the geographic ranges of all species that occur in an assemblages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pleiotropic effects on mandibular morphology II: differential epistasis and genetic variation in morphological integration.
James M. Cheverud,Thomas H. Ehrich,Ty T. Vaughn,Safina F. Koreishi,Robin B. Linsey,L. Susan Pletscher +5 more
TL;DR: This study maps relationship quantitative trait loci (QTLs), specifically QTLs that affect the relationship between individual mandibular traits and mandible length, across the genome in an F2 intercross of the LG/J and SM/J inbred mouse strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene effects on a quantitative trait: two-locus epistatic effects measured at microsatellite markers and at estimated qtl
TL;DR: This work uses new analytical and molecular techniques to examine nonadditive interactions of microsatellite markers and estimated QTL that influence adult body weight in mice and finds significant epistasis for large numbers of the two locus comparisons.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogeny of Pneumocystis carinii from 18 Primate Species Confirms Host Specificity and Suggests Coevolution
Christine Demanche,Madeleine Berthelemy,Thierry Petit,Bruno Polack,Ann E. Wakefield,Eduardo Dei-Cas,Jacques Guillot +6 more
TL;DR: Genetic divergence in primate-derived P. carinii organisms varied in terms of the phylogenetic divergence existing among the corresponding host species, suggesting coevolution.
