Selection and gene flow on a diminishing cline of melanic peppered moths.
Historical datasets documenting changes to gene frequency clines are extremely rare but provide a powerful means of assessing the strength and relative roles of natural selection and gene flow. In 19th century Britain, blackening of the environment by the coal-fired manufacturing industry gave rise to a steep cline in the frequency of the black (carbonaria) morph of the peppered moth (Biston be...
متن کاملGene flow reverses an adaptive cline in a coevolving host-parasitoid interaction.
Many natural populations are characterized by clinal patterns of adaptation, but it is unclear how gene flow and environmental gradients interact to drive such clines. We addressed this question by directly manipulating dispersal and productivity in an experimental landscape containing a microbial parasitoid, the bacteriophage T7, and its host, the bacterium Escherichia coli. We observed that t...
متن کاملTesting for asymmetrical gene flow in a Drosophila melanogaster body-size cline.
Asymmetrical gene flow is an important, but rarely examined genetic parameter. Here, we develop a new method for detecting departures from symmetrical migration between two populations using microsatellite data that are based on the difference in the proportion of private alleles. Application of this approach to data collected from wild-caught Drosophila melanogaster along a latitudinal body-si...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Fluid Flow Past a Square Cylinder Using a Lattice Boltzmann Method
The method of lattice boltzmann equation(LBE) is a kinetic-based approach for fluid flow computations. In the last decade, minimal kinetic models, and primarily the LBE, have met with significant success in the simulation of complex hydrodynamic phenomena, ranging from slow flows in grossly irregular geometries to fully developed turbulence, to flow with dynamic phase transitions. In the presen...
