Across the tree of life, populations have evolved the capacity to contend with suboptimal
conditions by engaging in dormancy, whereby individuals enter a reversible state of reduced …

Dormancy is a bet‐hedging strategy that allows organisms to persist through conditions that
are suboptimal for growth and reproduction by entering a reversible state of reduced …

Various approaches have been developed to evaluate the consequences of spatial structure
on evolution in subdivided populations. This book is both a review and new synthesis of …

Whereas most of classical population genetics considers the future of a population given a
starting point, the coalescent considers the present, while taking the past into account. The …

Gene drive technology, in which fast‐spreading engineered drive alleles are introduced into
wild populations, represents a promising new tool in the fight against vector‐borne diseases …

We identify a new natural coalescent structure, which we call the seed-bank coalescent, that
describes the gene genealogy of populations under the influence of a strong seed-bank …

The impact of haploid–diploidy and the intertidal landscape on a fine-scale genetic structure
was explored in a red seaweed Gracilaria gracilis. The pattern of genetic structure was …

Many biological phenomena can be thought of and modeled in terms of generalized
population structure, with individuals having a number of different possible states. Certain …

In many annual plant populations, seeds may be dormant for several seasons before they
germinate. Here, we investigate the consequences of both conditional (dispersed seeds …

We consider a system of interacting Fisher-Wright diffusions with seed-bank. Individuals live
in colonies and are subject to resampling and migration as long as they are active. Each …
