The physiology of movement
Movement, from foraging to migration, is known to be under the influence of the
environment. The translation of environmental cues to individual movement decision making …

Experimental evolution of dispersal: Unifying theory, experiments and natural systems
Dispersal is a central life history trait that affects the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of
populations and communities. The recent use of experimental evolution for the study of …

Social polymorphism is favoured by the co-evolution of dispersal with social behaviour
Dispersal determines gene flow among groups in a population and so plays a major role in
many ecological and evolutionary processes. As gene flow shapes kin structure, dispersal is …

Disentangling the mechanisms linking dispersal and sociality in supergene-mediated ant social forms
A Fontcuberta, O De Gasperin… - … of the Royal …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The coevolution between dispersal and sociality can lead to linked polymorphisms in both
traits, which may favour the emergence of supergenes. Supergenes have recently been …

Dispersal and life history of brown widow spiders in dated invasive populations on two continents
Theory and empirical work suggest that behaviours such as dispersal and exploration are
predictors of invasive success, and that behaviours may shift predictably after invasive …

Sex differences in dispersal syndrome are modulated by environment and evolution
Dispersal syndromes (ie suites of phenotypic correlates of dispersal) are potentially
important determinants of local adaptation in populations. Species that exhibit sexual …

Mate‐finding dispersal reduces local mate limitation and sex bias in dispersal
Sex‐biased dispersal (SBD) often skews the local sex ratio in a population. This can result in
a shortage of mates for individuals of the less‐dispersive sex. Such mate limitation can lead …

The influence of infection status and parasitism risk on host dispersal and susceptibility to infection in Drosophila nigrospiracula
For many organisms, habitat avoidance provides the first line of defence against parasitic
infection. Changes in infection status can shift the cost-benefit ratio of remaining in a given …

Experiments confirm a dispersive phenotype associated with a natural gene drive system
JN Runge, AK Lindholm - Royal Society Open Science, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Meiotic drivers are genetic entities that increase their own probability of being transmitted to
offspring, usually to the detriment of the rest of the organism, thus 'selfishly'increasing their …

Tracking dispersal across a patchy landscape reveals a dynamic interaction between genotype and habitat structure
Theoretical and empirical studies often show that within populations, individuals vary in their
propensity to disperse. We aspired to understand how this behavioural variation is impacted …
