When diverse lineages repeatedly adapt to similar environmental challenges, the extent to
which the same genes are involved (gene reuse) varies across systems. We propose that …

Urbanization drastically transforms landscapes, resulting in fragmentation, degradation, and
the loss of local biodiversity. Yet, urban environments also offer opportunities to observe …

Closely related species often use the same genes to adapt to similar environments.
However, we know little about why such genes possess increased adaptive potential and …

Parallel and convergent evolution offer some of the most compelling evidence for the
significance of natural selection in evolution, as the emergence of similar adaptive solutions …

Global adaptation occurs when all populations of a species undergo selection toward a
common optimum. This can occur by a hard selective sweep with the emergence of a new …

The repeated evolution of phenotypes provides clear evidence for the role of natural
selection in driving evolutionary change. However, the evolutionary origin of repeated …

Mountains are rich in biodiversity, and butterflies are species-rich and have a good
ecological and evolutionary research foundation. This review addresses the potential and …

Genotype–environment association (GEA) studies have the potential to identify the genetic
basis of local adaptation in natural populations. Specifically, GEA approaches look for a …

Aedes aegypti (yellow fever mosquito) and Ae. albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito) are globally
invasive pests that confer the world's dengue burden. Insecticide-based management has …

Insights into the processes underpinning convergent evolution advance our understanding
of the contributions of ancestral, introgressed, and novel genetic variation to phenotypic …
