Barcoding animal life: cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 divergences among closely related species

TL;DR: It is indicated that sequence divergences at COI regularly enable the discrimination of closely allied species in all animal phyla except the Cnidaria and constraints on intraspecific mitochondrial DNA divergence arising through selective sweeps mediated via interactions with the nuclear genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenies and Community Ecology

TL;DR: A common pattern of phylogenetic conservatism in ecological character is recognized and the challenges of using phylogenies of partial lineages are highlighted and phylogenetic approaches to three emergent properties of communities: species diversity, relative abundance distributions, and range sizes are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model selection in ecology and evolution

TL;DR: The steps of model selection are outlined and several ways that it is now being implemented are highlighted, so that researchers in ecology and evolution will find a valuable alternative to traditional null hypothesis testing, especially when more than one hypothesis is plausible.

Genetic consequences of climatic oscillations in the Quaternary.

TL;DR: DNA evidence indicates temperate species in Europe had different patterns of postglacial colonization across the same area and different ones in previous oscillations, whereas the northwest region of North America was colonized from the north, east and south.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetics and extinction

TL;DR: There is now sufficient evidence to regard the controversies regarding the contribution of genetic factors to extinction risk as resolved, and if genetic factors are ignored, extinction risk will be underestimated and inappropriate recovery strategies may be used.
