1.
Taylor O, Grabenstein K, Theodosopoulos A, Leeson H, Taylor S, Branch C
J Evol Biol . 2024 Oct; 38(1):1-9. PMID: 39382524
Character displacement theory predicts that closely-related co-occurring species should diverge in relevant traits to reduce costly interspecific interactions such as competition or hybridization. While many studies document character shifts in...

Semenov G, Sonnenberg B, Branch C, Heinen V, Welklin J, Padula S, et al.
Curr Biol . 2024 Apr; 34(9):1930-1939.e4. PMID: 38636515
Substantial progress has been made in understanding the genetic architecture of phenotypes involved in a variety of evolutionary processes. Behavioral genetics remains, however, among the least understood. We explore the...

Alund M, Cenzer M, Bierne N, Boughman J, Cerca J, Comerford M, et al.
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol . 2023 Oct; 15(12). PMID: 37788888
Anthropogenic impacts on the environment alter speciation processes by affecting both geographical contexts and selection patterns on a worldwide scale. Here we review evidence of these effects. We find that...

Firneno Jr T, Semenov G, Dopman E, Taylor S, Larson E, Gompert Z
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol . 2023 Sep; 15(12). PMID: 37739809
In hybrid zones, whether barrier loci experience selection mostly independently or as a unit depends on the ratio of selection to recombination as captured by the coupling coefficient. Theory predicts...
5.
Schweizer R, Romero A, Tobalske B, Semenov G, Carling M, Rice A, et al.
J Exp Biol . 2023 Sep; 226(19). PMID: 37680181
Thermoregulatory performance can be modified through changes in various subordinate traits, but the rate and magnitude of change in these traits is poorly understood. We investigated flexibility in traits that...
6.
Theodosopoulos A, Spellman G, Taylor S
Parasit Vectors . 2023 Feb; 16(1):67. PMID: 36788554
The Brown-capped Rosy-Finch is an endangered high alpine specialist that breeds on cliffs in the Rocky Mountains of North America. We know little about the parasites that infect these birds...
7.
Funk E, Spellman G, Winker K, Withrow J, Ruegg K, Taylor S
Evolution . 2023 Jan; 77(3):705-717. PMID: 36626815
Trait genetic architecture plays an important role in the probability that variation in that trait leads to divergence and speciation. In some cases, speciation may be driven by the generation...

Grabenstein K, Otter K, Burg T, Taylor S
Glob Chang Biol . 2022 Oct; 29(4):955-968. PMID: 36305309
Human habitat disturbances can promote hybridization between closely related, but typically reproductively isolated, species. We explored whether human habitat disturbances are related to hybridization between two closely related songbirds, black-capped...
9.
Grabenstein K, Otter K, Burg T, Taylor S
Ecol Evol . 2022 Apr; 12(4):e8756. PMID: 35386870
Both abiotic and biotic drivers influence species distributions. Abiotic drivers such as climate have received considerable attention, even though biotic drivers such as hybridization often interact with abiotic drivers. We...

Funk E, Mason N, Palsson S, Albrecht T, Johnson J, Taylor S
Nat Commun . 2021 Nov; 12(1):6833. PMID: 34824228
The genetic architecture of a phenotype can have considerable effects on the evolution of a trait or species. Characterizing genetic architecture provides insight into the complexity of a given phenotype...
