Environmental heterogeneity can tip the population genetics of range expansions
M Gralka, O Hallatschek - Elife, 2019 - elifesciences.org
The population genetics of most range expansions is thought to be shaped by the
competition between Darwinian selection and random genetic drift at the range margins …

Invasion front dynamics of interactive populations in environments with barriers
Y Azimzade - Scientific Reports, 2022 - nature.com
Invading populations normally comprise different subpopulations that interact while trying to
overcome existing barriers against their way to occupy new areas. However, the majority of …
