Ecologically mediated selection against hybrids, caused by hybrid phenotypes fitting poorly
into available niches, is typically viewed as distinct from selection caused by epistatic …

Understanding the distribution of crossovers along chromosomes is crucial to evolutionary
genomics because the crossover rate determines how strongly a genome region is …

Organisms exhibit an incredible diversity of life history strategies as adaptive responses to
environmental variation. The establishment of novel life history strategies involves multilocus …

To understand evolutionary factors that maintain complex trait variation, we sequenced
genomes from a single population of the plant Mimulus guttatus, identifying hundreds of …

Differential natural selection acting on populations in contrasting environments often results
in adaptive divergence in multivariate phenotypes. Multivariate trait divergence across …

Incompletely isolated species provide an opportunity to investigate the genetic mechanisms
and evolutionary forces that maintain distinct species in the face of ongoing gene flow. Here …

Abstract Across western North America, Mimulus guttatus exists as many local populations
adapted to site‐specific environmental challenges. Gene flow between locally adapted …

A paradigm in the plant defence literature is that defending against herbivores comes at a
cost to growth, resulting in a growth–defence trade‐off. However, while there is strong …

In flowering plants, F1 hybrid seed lethality is a common outcome of crosses between
closely related diploid species, but the genetic basis of this early‐acting and potentially …

Environmental gradients can drive adaptive evolutionary shifts in plant resource allocation
among growth, reproduction, and herbivore resistance. However, few studies have …
