• On the importance of balancing selection in plants 

  Delph, Lynda F.; Kelly, John K. (Wiley, 2014-01)

  Balancing selection refers to a variety of selective regimes that maintain advantageous genetic diversity within populations. We review the history of the ideas regarding the types of selection that maintain such polymorphism ...
• Increasing atmospheric [CO2] from glacial through future levels affects drought tolerance via impacts on leaves, xylem and their integrated function 

  Medeiros, Juliana S.; Ward, Joy K. (Wiley, 2013-08)

  Changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]) affect plant carbon/water trade-offs, with implications for drought tolerance. Leaf-level studies often indicate that drought tolerance may increase with rising ...
• Differential regulation of a MYB transcription factor is correlated with transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of trichome density in Mimulus guttatus 

  Scoville, Alison G.; Barnett, Laryssa L.; Bodbyl-Roels, Sarah; Kelly, John K.; Hileman, Lena C. (Wiley, 2011-07)

  Epigenetic inheritance, transgenerational transmission of traits not proximally determined by DNA sequence, has been linked to transmission of chromatin modifications and gene regulation, which are known to be sensitive ...

  Wolbachia do not live by reproductive manipulation alone: infection polymorphism in Drosophila suzukii and D. subpulchrella 

  Hamm, Christopher A.; Begun, David J.; Vo, Alexandre; Smith, Chris C. R.; Saelao, Perot; Shaver, Amanda O.; Jaenike, John; Turelli, Michael (Wiley, 2014-10)

  Drosophila suzukii recently invaded North America and Europe. Populations in Hawaii, California, New York and Nova Scotia are polymorphic for Wolbachia, typically with <20% infection frequency. The Wolbachia in D. suzukii, ...

  Spatially and temporally varying selection on intra-population QTL for a life history tradeoff in Mimulus guttatus 

  Mojica, Julius P.; Lee, Young Wha; Willis, John H.; Kelly, John K. (Wiley, 2012-08)

  Why do populations remain genetically variable despite strong continuous natural selection? Mutation reconstitutes variation eliminated by selection and genetic drift, but theoretical and experimental studies each suggest ...

  The role of pathogen shedding in linking within- and between-host pathogen dynamics 

  Barfield, Michael; Orive, Maria E.; Holt, Robert D. (Elsevier, 2015-12)

  A model linking within- and between-host pathogen dynamics via pathogen shedding (emission of pathogens throughout the course of infection) is developed, and several aspects of host availability and co-infection are ...

  Resources, mortality, and disease ecology: Importance of positive feedbacks between host growth rate and pathogen dynamics 

  Smith, Val H.; Holt, Robert D.; Smith, Marilyn S.; Niu, Yafen; Barfield, Michael (Taylor & Francis, 2015)

  Resource theory and metabolic scaling theory suggest that the dynamics of a pathogen within a host should strongly depend upon the rate of host cell metabolism. Once an infection occurs, key ecological interactions occur ...

  Geographic variation in polyandry of the Eastern Honey Bee, Apis cerana, in Thailand 

  DeFelice, D.S.; Ross, C.; Simone-Finstrom, M.; Warrit, N.; Smith, Deborah R.; Burgett, M.; Sukumalanand, P.; Rueppell, O. (Springer Verlag, 2015-02)

  The repeated evolution of extreme polyandry in advanced social insects is exceptional and its explanation has attracted significant attention. However, most reported estimates of the number of matings are derived from ...

  Anolis sex chromosomes are derived from a single ancestral pair 

  Gamble, Tony; Geneva, Anthony J.; Glor, Richard E.; Zarkower, David (Wiley, 2014-04)

  To explain the frequency and distribution of heteromorphic sex chromosomes in the lizard genus Anolis we compared the relative roles of sex chromosome conservation vs. turnover of sex determining mechanisms. We used model ...

  A genome-wide assessment of stages of elevational parapatry in Bornean passerine birds reveals no introgression: implications for processes and patterns of speciation 

  Moyle, Robert G.; Manthey, Joseph D.; Hosner, Peter A.; Rahman, Mustafa; Lakim, Maklarin; Sheldon, Frederick H. (PeerJ, 2017-05-18)

  Topographically complex regions often contain the close juxtaposition of closely related species along elevational gradients. The evolutionary causes of these elevational replacements, and thus the origin and maintenance ...
