DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9965
Abstract: Abstract The coexistence of distinct alternative mating strategies (AMS) is often explained by mechanisms involving trade‐offs between reproductive traits and lifetime fitness; yet their relative importance remains poorly understood. Here, we used an established individual‐based,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10592-018-1134-z
Abstract: Technological advancements have allowed geneticists to exploit an increasing array of molecular markers, many of which have different properties and may provide contrasting insights into the evolutionary history and structure of populations. This has important… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10641-017-0676-0
Abstract: Migratory species take advantage of multiple habitats during their life cycle to optimize growth, survival, and reproduction. However, migration also makes them vulnerable to habitat degradation and exploitation in each habitat, and loss of connection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10641-017-0705-z
Abstract: Animals reared in barren captive environments exhibit different developmental trajectories and behaviors than wild counterparts. Hence, the captive phenotypes may influence the success of reintroduction and recovery programs for threatened and endangered species. We collected… read more here.
