Gene flow and life history patterns.
Dispersal distances overestimate the gene-flow scale l (the square-root of the mean squared distance travelled from birth to reproduction) when egg laying is concentrated early in dispersal and when there is mortality during dispersal. If egg laying follows a square-root normal distribution in time, as it does in several Drosophila species, then l is reduced to about 0.6 of that estimated from ...
متن کاملSymbiont modifies host life-history traits that affect gene flow.
The evolution of herbivore-host plant specialization requires low levels of gene flow between populations on alternate plant species. Accordingly, selection for host plant specialization is most effective when genotypes have minimal exposure to, and few mating opportunities with individuals from, alternate habitats. Maternally transmitted bacterial symbionts are common in insect herbivores and ...
متن کاملDispersal Patterns, Active Behaviour, and Flow Environment during Early Life History of Coastal Cold Water Fishes
During the pelagic larval phase, fish dispersal may be influenced passively by surface currents or actively determined by swimming behaviour. In situ observations of larval swimming are few given the constraints of field sampling. Active behaviour is therefore often inferred from spatial patterns in the field, laboratory studies, or hydrodynamic theory, but rarely are these approaches considere...
متن کاملGene expression patterns underlying parasite-induced alterations in host behaviour and life history.
Many parasites manipulate their hosts' phenotype. In particular, parasites with complex life cycles take control of their intermediate hosts' behaviour and life history to increase transmission to their definitive host. The proximate mechanisms underlying these parasite-induced alterations are poorly understood. The cestode Anomotaenia brevis affects the behaviour, life history and morphology o...
متن کاملGene Flow between Sympatric Life History Forms of Oncorhynchus mykiss Located above and below Migratory Barriers
Oncorhynchus mykiss have a diverse array of life history types, and understanding the relationship among types is important for management of the species. Patterns of gene flow between sympatric freshwater resident O. mykiss, commonly known as rainbow trout, and anadromous O. mykiss, commonly known as steelhead, populations are complex and poorly understood. In this study, we attempt to determi...
