DOI: 10.1007/s00436-020-06949-0
Abstract: In circumstances where populations of invasive species occur across variable landscapes, interactions among invaders, their parasites, and the surrounding environment may establish local coevolutionary trajectories for the participants. This can generate variable infection patterns when… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2018.05.013
Abstract: Eavesdropping is predicted to evolve between sympatric, but not allopatric, predator and prey. The evolutionary arms race between Asian honey bees and their hornet predators has led to a remarkable defence, heat balling, which suffocates… read more here.

Patterns of genomic divergence in sympatric and allopatric speciation of three Mihoutao (Actinidia) species

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: 10.7717/peerj.11503
Abstract: To date, evidence regarding the performance of secondary metabolites from larval stages of sea stars as an anti-predation defense relates only to a few species/specimens from a few geographic ranges. Unfortunately, this hinders a comprehensive… read more here.
