Data from: A test of the chromosomal rearrangement model of speciation in Dro...
Recent studies suggest that chromosomal rearrangements play a significant role in speciation by preventing recombination and maintaining species persistence despite interspecies... -
Data from: More taxa or more characters revisited: combining data from nuclea...
A central question concerning data collection strategy for molecular phylogenies has been, is it better to increase the number of characters or the number of taxa sampled to... -
Data from: Resolution of a Supertree/Supermatrix Paradox
No description available -
Data from: Hot spots of genetic diversity descended from multiple Pleistocene...
Species that inhabit naturally fragmented environments are expected to be spatially structured and exhibit reduced genetic diversity at the periphery of their range. Patterns of... -
Data from: Conservation genetics of Neotropical pollinators revisited: micros...
Allozyme analyses have suggested that Neotropical orchid bee (Euglossini) pollinators are vulnerable because of putative high frequencies of diploid males, a result of loss of... -
Data from: Phylogenetic hypotheses of the relationships of arthropods to Prec...
A number of Vendian (latest Precambrian) body fossils have traditionally been considered arthropods or arthropodlike organisms. Several Cambrian "weird wonders" have also been... -
Data from: Expressed sequence tags reveal Proctotrupomorpha (minus Chalcidoid...
Hymenoptera is one of the most diverse groups of animals on the planet and have vital importance for ecosystem function as pollinators and parasitoids. Higher level... -
Data from: Nonsense-mediated decay enables intron gain in Drosophila
Intron number varies considerably among genomes, but despite their fundamental importance, the mutational mechanisms and evolutionary processes underlying the expansion of... -
Data from: Phylogeny of Trichoptera (caddisflies): characterization of signal...
Trichoptera are holometabolous insects with aquatic larvae that, together with the Lepidoptera, comprise the Amphiesmenoptera. Despite extensive previous morphological work,... -
Data from: The biogeography of introgression in the critically endangered Afr...
In the four years since its original description, the taxonomy of the kipunji (Rungwecebus kipunji), a geographically restricted and critically endangered African monkey, has... -
Data from: Stable epigenetic effects impact adaptation in allopolyploid orchi...
Epigenetic information includes heritable signals that modulate gene expression but are not encoded in the primary nucleotide sequence. We have studied natural epigenetic... -
Data from: The cost of sexual signaling in yeast
The handicap principle holds that costly sexual signals can reliably indicate mate quality. Only individuals of high quality can afford a strong signal - the cost of signaling... -
Data from: Population genetics of Manihot esculenta ssp. flabellifolia gives ...
The Guianas have often been proposed as a forest refugium; however, this view has received little testing. Studies of population genetics of forest taxa suggest that the central... -
Data from: Phylogeny of Saxifragales (angiosperms, eudicots): analysis of a r...
Rapid, ancient radiations pose one of the most difficult challenges for phylogenetic estimation. We employed DNA sequence data comprising 9,006 aligned bp from five genes... -
Data from: Introgression from modern hybrid varieties into landrace populatio...
Landraces are domesticated local plant varieties that did not experienced a deliberate and intensive selection during a formal breeding programme. In Europe, maize landraces are... -
Data from: Phylogeography and Molecular Systematics of the Peromyscus Aztecus...
Mice of the Peromyscus aztecus species group occur at mid to high elevations in several mountain ranges in the highlands of Middle America (Mexico and Central America), a region... -
Data from: Repeated Evolution of Dioecy from Monoecy in Siparunaceae (Laurales)
Siparunaceae comprise Glossocalyx with one species in West Africa and Siparuna with 65 species in the neotropics; all have unisexual flowers, and 15 species are monoecious, 50... -
Data from: Gene expression profiles associated with the transition to parasit...
Ancylostoma caninum is a common canine parasite responsible for anemia and death in infected dogs. Gene expression profiling was used to investigate molecular differences... -
Data from: The phylogenetic basis of sexual size dimorphism in orb-weaving sp...
Extreme sexual body size dimorphism (SSD), in which males are only a small fraction of the size of the females, occurs only in a few, mostly marine, taxonomic groups. Spiders... -
Data from: When are phylogenetic analyses misled by convergence? A case study...
Convergence, i.e., similarity between organisms that is not the direct result of shared phylogenetic history (and that may instead result from independent adaptations to similar...
