Colour polymorphisms play a key role in sexual selection and speciation, yet the
mechanisms that generate and maintain them are not fully understood. Here, we use …

Four-fold degenerate coding sites form a major component of the genome, and are often
used to make inferences about selection and demography, so that understanding their …

In species with separate sexes, social systems can differ in the relative variances of male
versus female reproductive success. Papionin monkeys (macaques, mangabeys, mandrills …

In Drosophila, many studies have examined the short-or long-term evolution occurring
across synonymous sites. Few, however, have examined both the recent and long-term …

Genomic or detailed genetic data are now increasingly available for both model and non-
model organisms, and this is allowing researchers to investigate the role that different forces …
