DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4304
Abstract: Abstract The rough periwinkle, Littorina saxatilis, is a model system for studying parallel ecological speciation in microparapatry. Phenotypically parallel wave‐adapted and crab‐adapted ecotypes that hybridize within the middle shore are replicated along the northwestern coast… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9611
Abstract: Abstract Studying the evolution of genomic divergence between lineages is a topical issue in evolutionary biology. However, the evolutionary forces that shape the heterogeneous divergence of the genomic landscape are still poorly understood. Here, two… read more here.

Abstract: The phylogenetic resolution provided by genome-wide data has demonstrated the usefulness of RAD sequencing to tackle long-standing taxonomic questions. Cnidarians have recently become a model group in this regard, yet species delimitation analyses have been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/hr/uhac054
Abstract: Abstract Isolation by geographic distance is involved in the formation of potential genomic islands and the divergence of genomes, which often result in speciation. The mechanisms of sympatric and allopatric speciation associated with geographic distance… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.13664
Abstract: Understanding the evolutionary mechanisms generating parallel genomic divergence patterns among replicate ecotype pairs remains an important challenge in speciation research. We investigated the genomic divergence between the anadromous parasitic river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) and the… read more here.

Genomic divergence of Stellera chamaejasme through local selection across the Qinghai–Tibet plateau and northern China

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16622
Abstract: Understanding how populations diverge and new species arise is a central question in evolutionary biology. “Allopatric” divergence through geographical isolation is considered to be the commonest mechanism generating species biodiversity in mountain ecosystems. However, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12864-017-4199-z
Abstract: BackgroundIn many prokaryotic genera a clustered phylogeny is observed, akin to the occurrence of species in sexually reproducing organisms. For some taxa, homologous recombination has been invoked as the underlying mechanism providing genomic cohesion among… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/genes11030265
Abstract: Species diversity can be inferred using multiple data types, however, results based on genetic data can be at odds with patterns of phenotypic variation. Tiger beetles of the Cicindelidia politula (LeConte, 1875) species complex have… read more here.
