Smith C, Spence R, Barber I, Przybylski M, Wootton R
Ecol Evol . 2014 Dec; 4(18):3550-4. PMID: 25478147
While the genetic basis to plate morph evolution of the three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) is well described, the environmental variables that select for different plate and spine morphs are incompletely...

Spence R, Wootton R, Barber I, Przybylski M, Smith C
Ecol Evol . 2013 Jun; 3(6):1717-26. PMID: 23789080
The central assumption of evolutionary theory is that natural selection drives the adaptation of populations to local environmental conditions, resulting in the evolution of adaptive phenotypes. The three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus...

Smith C, Barber I, Wootton R, Chittka L
Proc Biol Sci . 2004 Jul; 271(1542):949-55. PMID: 15255050
Receiver-bias models of signal evolution predict that male sexually selected traits evolve through prior selection for other functions. Female three-spined sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) in many populations show a mating preference...
