Multi‐locus species delimitation in closely related animals and fungi: one marker is not enough
Despite taxonomy's 250‐year history, the past 20 years have borne witness to remarkable
advances in technology and techniques, as well as debate. DNA barcoding has generated a …

Speciation in seabirds: why are there so many species… and why aren't there more?
VL Friesen - Journal of Ornithology, 2015 - Springer
Speciation—the multiplication of species through the evolution of barriers to reproduction
between populations—plays a central role in evolution since it enables two or more …

Nuclear genomic sequences reveal that polar bears are an old and distinct bear lineage
Recent studies have shown that the polar bear matriline (mitochondrial DNA) evolved from a
brown bear lineage since the late Pleistocene, potentially indicating rapid speciation and …

Identifying mechanisms of genetic differentiation among populations in vagile species: historical factors dominate genetic differentiation in seabirds
Elucidating the factors underlying the origin and maintenance of genetic variation among
populations is crucial for our understanding of their ecology and evolution, and also to help …

Hierarchical population structure and habitat differences in a highly mobile marine species: the Atlantic spotted dolphin
A Viricel, PE Rosel - Molecular ecology, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Recent molecular studies have shown that highly mobile species with continuous
distributions can exhibit fine‐scale population structure. In this context, we assessed genetic …

Global spatial ecology of three closely-related gadfly petrels
The conservation status and taxonomy of the three gadfly petrels that breed in Macaronesia
is still discussed partly due to the scarce information on their spatial ecology. Using …
