This study models how bee grooming behavior changes pollen distribution on their bodies and increases pollen carryover to other flowers, enhancing both male and female reproductive success.

The paper develops a model to study how host-switching intensity affects parasite ecological and evolutionary patterns, finding an optimal range that matches empirical observations.

This paper studies speciation, extinction, and hybridization using a neutral model, finding that genome size affects extinction and hybridization rates, and hybridization is more common between recently branched, abundant species.
