Abstract Population demographic changes, alongside landscape, geographic and climate heterogeneity, can influence the timing, stability extent of introgression where species hybridise. Thus, quantifying interactions across diverged lineages, relative contributions interspecific genetic exchange selection to divergence at genome‐wide level is needed better understand drivers hybrid zone formation maintenance. We used seven latitudinally arrayed transects quantify climate, geography landscape...
The current study assessed the moderating role of perceived discrimination on association between same-race/ethnicity friends and negative ethnic-racial identity (ERI) affect among Asian, Black, Latinx students color over time. Diverse college ages 18-25 (73.7% female) provided self-reports friends, racial discrimination, ERI at beginning a semester (T1) end 4 months later (T2). Results indicated that T1 was significant moderator relations T2 (controlling for affect). Specifically, having...
Summary Quantifying the mechanisms underlying hybrid zone formation requires an evaluation of both neutral and nonneutral evolutionary processes. Population demographic changes, alongside landscape heterogeneity climate adaptation, can influence timing, stability, extent introgression where species hybridize. Thus, quantifying interactions across diverged lineages, relative contributions interspecific genetic exchange selection to divergence at genome-wide level is needed. We quantified...
Abstract There is substantial interest in uncovering the genetic basis of traits underlying adaptive responses tree species, as this information will ultimately aid conservation and industrial endeavors across populations, generations, environments. Fundamentally, characterization such bases within context a architecture, which describes mutlidimensional relationship between genotype phenotype through identification causative variants, their relative location genome, expression, pleiotropic...
Abstract Long-lived species of trees, especially conifers, often display weak patterns reproductive isolation, but clear local adaptation and phenotypic divergence. Discovering the evolutionary history these is paramount to a generalized understanding speciation for long-lived plants. We focus on two closely related yet phenotypically divergent pine species, Pinus pungens P. rigida , that co-exist along high elevation ridgelines southern Appalachian Mountains. In this study, we performed...
