Most adaption processes have a polygenic genetic basis, but even with the recent explosive
growth of genomic data we are still lacking a unified framework describing the dynamics of …

Parallel evolution across replicate populations has provided evolutionary biologists with
iconic examples of adaptation. When multiple populations colonize seemingly similar …

Urban ecosystems are rapidly expanding throughout the world, but how urban growth affects
the evolutionary ecology of species living in urban areas remains largely unknown. Urban …

The repeated adaptation of oceanic threespine sticklebacks to fresh water has made it a
premier organism to study parallel evolution. These small fish have multiple distinct …

Understanding the distribution of crossovers along chromosomes is crucial to evolutionary
genomics because the crossover rate determines how strongly a genome region is …

Adaptive divergence and speciation may happen despite opposition by gene flow.
Identifying the genomic basis underlying divergence with gene flow is a major task in …

Adaptation in the wild often involves standing genetic variation (SGV), which allows rapid
responses to selection on ecological timescales. However, we still know little about how the …

Urbanization is gaining force globally, which challenges biodiversity, and it has recently also
emerged as an agent of evolutionary change. Seasonal phenology and life cycle regulation …

Understanding the extent to which ecological divergence is repeatable is essential for
predicting responses of biodiversity to environmental change. Here we test the predictability …

The question of parallel evolution—what causes it, and how common it is—has long
captured the interest of evolutionary biologists. Widespread urban development over the last …
