Dominguez-Guerrero S, Esquerre D, Burress E, Maciel-Mata C, Alencar L, Munoz M
Nat Commun . 2024 Jun; 15(1):4966. PMID: 38862522
Viviparity evolved ~115 times across squamate reptiles, facilitating the colonization of cold habitats, where oviparous species are scarce or absent. Whether the ecological opportunity furnished by such colonization reconfigures phenotypic...

Skeels A, Esquerre D, Lipsky D, Pellissier L, Boschman L
Evolution . 2023 Sep; 77(12):2672-2686. PMID: 37756495
Mountains are among the most biodiverse regions on the planet, and how these landforms shape diversification through the interaction of biological traits and geo-climatic dynamics is integral to understanding global...
3.
Esquerre D, Brennan I, Donnellan S, Keogh J
Biol Lett . 2022 Dec; 18(12):20220360. PMID: 36541096
Lineages may diversify when they encounter available ecological niches. Adaptive divergence by ecological opportunity often appears to follow the invasion of a new environment with open ecological space. This evolutionary...

Pavon-Vazquez C, Esquerre D, Fitch A, Maryan B, Doughty P, Donnellan S, et al.
Mol Phylogenet Evol . 2022 May; 173:107516. PMID: 35577290
Genomic data are a powerful tool for the elucidation of evolutionary patterns at the population level and above. The combined analysis of genomic and morphological data can result in species...

Pavon-Vazquez C, Esquerre D, Keogh J
BMC Ecol Evol . 2022 Feb; 22(1):15. PMID: 35151266
Background: Heterochrony, change in the rate or timing of development, is thought to be one of the main drivers of morphological evolution, and allometry, trait scaling patterns imposed by size,...

Esquerre D, Keogh J, Demangel D, Morando M, Avila L, Sites J, et al.
Syst Biol . 2021 Jul; 71(2):286-300. PMID: 34259868
Understanding the factors that cause heterogeneity among gene trees can increase the accuracy of species trees. Discordant signals across the genome are commonly produced by incomplete lineage sorting (ILS) and...

Melville J, Chapple D, Keogh J, Sumner J, Amey A, Bowles P, et al.
PLoS Biol . 2021 Jun; 19(6):e3001210. PMID: 34061821
Global biodiversity loss is a profound consequence of human activity. Disturbingly, biodiversity loss is greater than realized because of the unknown number of undocumented species. Conservation fundamentally relies on taxonomic...

Esquerre D, Donnellan S, Pavon-Vazquez C, Fenker J, Keogh J
Mol Phylogenet Evol . 2021 Apr; 161:107181. PMID: 33892100
Advances from empirical studies in phylogeography, systematics and species delimitation highlight the importance of integrative approaches for quantifying taxonomic diversity. Genomic data have greatly improved our ability to discern both...

Natusch D, Esquerre D, Lyons J, Hamidy A, Lemmon A, Moriarty Lemmon E, et al.
Mol Phylogenet Evol . 2020 Sep; 158:106960. PMID: 32950680
The large and enigmatic New Guinean pythons in the genus Leiopython are harvested from the wild to supply the international trade in pets. Six species are currently recognized (albertisii, biakensis,...

Medina I, Vega-Trejo R, Wallenius T, Esquerre D, Leon C, Perez D, et al.
Proc Biol Sci . 2020 Jun; 287(1929):20201011. PMID: 32576112
Many organisms use different antipredator strategies throughout their life, but little is known about the reasons or implications of such changes. For years, it has been suggested that selection by...
