Reanalysis suggests that genomic islands of speciation are due to reduced diversity, not reduced gene flow
TE Cruickshank, MW Hahn - Molecular ecology, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
The metaphor of 'genomic islands of speciation'was first used to describe heterogeneous
differentiation among loci between the genomes of closely related species. The biological …

Songs versus colours versus horns: what explains the diversity of sexually selected traits?
JJ Wiens, E Tuschhoff - Biological Reviews, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Papers on sexual selection often highlight the incredible diversity of sexually selected traits
across animals. Yet, few studies have tried to explain why this diversity evolved. Animals use …

Inferring responses to climate dynamics from historical demography in neotropical forest lizards
We apply a comparative framework to test for concerted demographic changes in response
to climate shifts in the neotropical lowland forests, learning from the past to inform …

A mid‐P leistocene rainforest corridor enabled synchronous invasions of the A tlantic F orest by A mazonian anole lizards
Shifts in the geographic distribution of habitats over time can promote dispersal and
vicariance, thereby influencing large‐scale biogeographic patterns and ecological …

Ecological opportunity from innovation, not islands, drove the anole lizard adaptive radiation
ED Burress, MM Muñoz - Systematic Biology, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Islands are thought to facilitate adaptive radiation by providing release from competition and
predation. Anole lizards are considered a classic example of this phenomenon: different …

Conservation genetics and genomics of amphibians and reptiles
Amphibians and reptiles as a group are often secretive, reach their greatest diversity often in
remote tropical regions, and contain some of the most endangered groups of organisms on …

Local adaptation in mainland anole lizards: Integrating population history and genome–environment associations
Environmental gradients constrain physiological performance and thus species' ranges,
suggesting that species occurrence in diverse environments may be associated with local …

Accumulation of transposable elements in Hox gene clusters during adaptive radiation of Anolis lizards
N Feiner - Proceedings of the Royal Society B …, 2016 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Transposable elements (TEs) are DNA sequences that can insert elsewhere in the genome
and modify genome structure and gene regulation. The role of TEs in evolution is …

Patterns, mechanisms and genetics of speciation in reptiles and amphibians
In this contribution, the aspects of reptile and amphibian speciation that emerged from
research performed over the past decade are reviewed. First, this study assesses how …

Phylogenetic relationships of Amazonian anole lizards (Dactyloa): taxonomic implications, new insights about phenotypic evolution and the timing of diversification
The ecology and evolution of Caribbean anoles are well described, yet little is known about
mainland anole species. Lack of phylogenetic information limits our knowledge about …
