Quantification of eDNA shedding rates from invasive bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix

KE Klymus, CA Richter, DC Chapman, C Paukert - Biological conservation, 2015 - Elsevier
Wildlife managers can more easily mitigate the effects of invasive species if action takes
place before a population becomes established. Such early detection requires sensitive …

Genetic consequences of range expansions

L Excoffier, M Foll, RJ Petit - Annual Review of Ecology …, 2009 - annualreviews.org
Although range expansions have occurred recurrently in the history of most species, their
genetic consequences have been little investigated. Theoretical studies show that range …

How does it feel to be like a rolling stone? Ten questions about dispersal evolution

O Ronce - Annu. Rev. Ecol. Evol. Syst., 2007 - annualreviews.org

An evolutionary process that assembles phenotypes through space rather than through time

R Shine, GP Brown, BL Phillips - Proceedings of the …, 2011 - National Acad Sciences
In classical evolutionary theory, traits evolve because they facilitate organismal survival
and/or reproduction. We discuss a different type of evolutionary mechanism that relies upon …
