Kovach et al.(2016) provide a thoughtful response to our essay on the role adaptive
introgression may play in genetic conservation and management in a chang ing climate …

Experimental work has provided evidence for extrinsic post‐zygotic isolation, a
phenomenon unique to ecological speciation. The role that ecological components to …

Marine invertebrates are exploited increasingly as food resources worldwide, but knowledge
of genetic population structure is limited for most commercially valuable taxa. We …

About 15,000 years earlier, the Northern half of Europe and North America was buried under
a few kilometres of ice. Since then, many organisms have colonized and rapidly adapted to …

Hybrid incompatibilities occur when interactions between opposite-ancestry alleles at
different loci reduce the fitness of hybrids. Most work on incompatibilities has focused on …

Although hybridization can be used as a tool for genetic rescue, it can also generate
outbreeding depression and reduce local adaptation. Improved understanding of these …

The deleterious effects of hybridization are a serious concern for the conservation and
management of species, particularly when populations mix as a result of human activity …

The role of recombination in genome evolution has long been studied in theory, but until
recently empirical investigations had been limited to a small number of model species. Here …

Natural hybridization between closely related taxa is frequent in many organismal groups,
yet it has long been perceived as a force preventing diversification and speciation …

Interspecific hybridization is often seen as a major conservation issue, potentially
threatening endangered species and decreasing biodiversity. In natural populations, the …
