  5. 13. Predation as a driver of reproductive isolation - from adaptive divergence to hybrid inviability

    Author : Varpu Pärssinen; Enhet akvatisk ekologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reproductive isolation; ecological speciation; predation; adaptive radiation; evolution; behaviour; fish;

    Abstract : Natural selection can play an important role in the origin of new species.

  7. 15. The Preservation of Favoured Morphs in the Struggle Between Sexes

    Author : Thomas Gosden; Evolutionär ekologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sexual Selection; Polymorphism; Density-dependence; Population divergence; Zygoptera; Sexual Conflict;

    Abstract : Sexual selection is particularly likely to promote population divergence, because sexual traits are expected to be subject to rapid evolutionary change. Identifying the relative roles of particular barriers to the amount of total reproductive isolation between populations or closely related species can provide important clues to the mechanisms of population divergence and speciation Phenotypic trait differences among populations are thought to reflect the interaction between the intensity of gene flow versus the strength of local selection and drift.
