Evolution of genes and genomes on the Drosophila phylogeny
- A. Clark, M. Eisen, +412 authors Iain Maccallum
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 8 November 2007
Comparative analysis of multiple genomes in a phylogenetic framework dramatically improves the precision and sensitivity of evolutionary inference, producing more robust results than single-genome… Expand
Hybridization and speciation
- R. Abbott, D. Albach, +36 authors D. Zinner
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of evolutionary biology
- 1 February 2013
Hybridization has many and varied impacts on the process of speciation. Hybridization may slow or reverse differentiation by allowing gene flow and recombination. It may accelerate speciation via… Expand
Genomics and the origin of species
- O. Seehausen, R. Butlin, +31 authors A. Widmer
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Reviews Genetics
- 1 March 2014
Speciation is a fundamental evolutionary process, the knowledge of which is crucial for understanding the origins of biodiversity. Genomic approaches are an increasingly important aspect of this… Expand
Sexual selection and speciation.
- T. M. Panhuis, R. Butlin, M. Zuk, T. Tregenza
- Biology, Medicine
- Trends in ecology & evolution
- 1 July 2001
The power of sexual selection to drive changes in mate recognition traits gives it the potential to be a potent force in speciation. Much of the evidence to support this possibility comes from… Expand
Taxon‐specific PCR for DNA barcoding arthropod prey in bat faeces
- Matt R K Zeale, R. Butlin, Gary L. A. Barker, D. Lees, G. Jones
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology resources
- 1 March 2011
The application of DNA barcoding to dietary studies allows prey taxa to be identified in the absence of morphological evidence and permits a greater resolution of prey identity than is possible… Expand
Differential gene exchange between parapatric morphs of Littorina saxatilis detected using AFLP markers
- Craig S. Wilding, R. Butlin, J. Grahame
- Biology
- 1 July 2001
Speciation requires the acquisition of reproductive isolation, and the circumstances under which this could evolve are of great interest. Are new species formed after the acquisition of generalized… Expand
Interpreting the genomic landscape of speciation: a road map for finding barriers to gene flow
- M. Ravinet, R. Faria, +6 authors A. Westram
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of evolutionary biology
- 1 August 2017
Speciation, the evolution of reproductive isolation among populations, is continuous, complex, and involves multiple, interacting barriers. Until it is complete, the effects of this process vary… Expand
Recombination and speciation
- R. Butlin
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology
- 1 August 2005
Speciation can be viewed as the evolution of restrictions on the freedom of genetic recombination: new combinations of alleles can be generated within species, but alleles from different species… Expand
An objective, rapid and reproducible method for scoring AFLP peak‐height data that minimizes genotyping error
- R. Whitlock, H. Hipperson, M. Mannarelli, R. Butlin, T. Burke
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology resources
- 1 July 2008
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) fingerprint data are now commonly collected using DNA sequencers. AFLP genotypes are still often scored by eye from such data — a time‐consuming,… Expand
Multiplex SNP‐SCALE: a cost‐effective medium‐throughput single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping method
- T. Kenta, J. Gratten, +4 authors T. Burke
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology resources
- 1 November 2008
We describe a convenient, cost‐effective and flexible medium‐throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping method, Multiplex SNP‐SCALE, which enables the simultaneous amplification by… Expand
