This study investigates how directional and balancing selection influence mitochondrial haplotype evolution in Drosophila melanogaster under different thermal environments and genetic backgrounds.

This paper investigates how dominance of beneficial mutations can evolve during selective sweeps, showing that sexually antagonistic selection increases the likelihood of dominance reversal and balanced polymorphisms.

The paper quantifies how many genomic loci under balancing selection are detectable versus invisible to standard tests, showing detectable loci are a biased subset with large fitness effects.

This paper reviews the development of balancing selection theory over the last century and examines its biological scenarios and genetic system features.

This study uses meta-analysis to examine the tempo of evolutionary parallelism in clinal divergence between native and introduced plant ranges, finding increased parallelism over time.

This paper reevaluates Muller's sheltering hypothesis for sex chromosome evolution, finding that restrictive assumptions in earlier models may have excluded its validity.

This study identifies copy number variations contributing to parallel local adaptation in Ambrosia artemisiifolia across its native and invasive ranges.
