Phenotypic divergence along lines of genetic variance.

Natural populations inhabiting the same environment often independently evolve the same phenotype. Is this replicated evolution a result of genetic constraints imposed by patterns of genetic covariation? We looked for associations between directions of morphological divergence and the orientation of the genetic variance-covariance matrix (G) by using an experimental system of morphological evol...

Evidence of hybridization between Lythrum salicaria (purple loosestrife) and L. alatum (winged loosestrife) in North America.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although Lythrum salicaria (purple loosestrife) was introduced to North America from Europe in the early 1800s, it did not become invasive until the 1930s. Whether hybridization with L. alatum (winged loosestrife) could have played a role in its ultimate spread was tested. METHODS Six diagnostic morphological traits (flower number per axil, leaf placement, calyx pubescence...

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Interspecific divergence of transcription networks along lines of genetic variance in Drosophila: dimensionality, evolvability, and constraint.

Change in gene expression is a major facilitator of phenotypic evolution. Understanding the evolutionary potential of gene expression requires taking into account complex systems of regulatory networks, the structure of which could potentially bias evolutionary trajectories. We analyzed the evolutionary potential and divergence of multigene expression in three well-characterized signaling pathw...
