Current approaches to biodiversity conservation are largely based on geographic areas,
ecosystems, ecological communities, and species, with less attention on genetic diversity …

Speciation is a fundamental evolutionary process, the knowledge of which is crucial for
understanding the origins of biodiversity. Genomic approaches are an increasingly …

In recent years, scientists have realized that evolution can occur on timescales much shorter
than the" long lapse of ages" emphasized by Darwin—in fact, evolutionary change is …

The origin of biological diversity, via the formation of new species, can be inextricably linked
to adaptation to the ecological environment. Specifically, ecological processes are central to …

Humans have dramatic, diverse and far-reaching influences on the evolution of other
organisms. Numerous examples of this human-induced contemporary evolution have been …

Speciation, that is, the evolution of reproductive barriers eventually leading to complete
isolation, is a crucial process generating biodiversity. Recent work has contributed much to …

Pollinator biodiversity loss occurs at unprecedented rates globally, with particularly sharp
declines documented in the North Temperate Zone. There is currently no consensus on the …

The first goal of this paper was to overview modern approaches to local adaptation, with a
focus on the use of population genomics data to detect signals of natural selection in fishes …

Hybridization between naturally co-occurring species that normally do not interbreed is
being documented following anthropogenic habitat modifications for an increasing number …

Divergent natural selection has been shown to promote speciation in many taxa. However,
although divergent selection often initiates the process of speciation, it often fails to complete …
