Gene flow has the potential to both constrain and facilitate adaptation to local environmental conditions. The early stages of population divergence can be unstable because of fluctuating levels of ...

A census was performed in the stand to conduct a genetic study of seed and pollen dispersal. All 112 adult trees and 128 seedlings were sampled and mapped using a GPS III (Garmin, Olathe, KS, USA) ...

Felids are among the species most threatened by habitat fragmentation resulting from land-use change. In the Uruguayan Savanna ecoregion, about 30% of natural habitats have been lost, large felids ...

Secondary contact and hybridization between recently diverged taxa have been increasing due to anthropogenic changes to the environment. Determining whether secondary contact leads to gene flow ...
