Gaynor M, Landis J, OConnor T, Laport R, Doyle J, Soltis D, et al.
Appl Plant Sci . 2024 Aug; 12(4):e11606. PMID: 39184199
Premise: Traditional methods of ploidal-level estimation are tedious; using DNA sequence data for cytotype estimation is an ideal alternative. Multiple statistical approaches to leverage sequence data for ploidy inference based...

Pelaez J, Gloss A, Goldman-Huertas B, Kim B, Lapoint R, Pimentel-Solorio G, et al.
G3 (Bethesda) . 2023 Jun; 13(8). PMID: 37317982
Herbivorous insects are exceptionally diverse, accounting for a quarter of all known eukaryotic species, but the genomic basis of adaptations that enabled this dietary transition remains poorly understood. Many studies...

OConnor T, Sandoval M, Wang J, Hans J, Takenaka R, Child 6th M, et al.
Evolution . 2021 Aug; 75(10):2441-2459. PMID: 34370317
Color polymorphic species can offer exceptional insight into the ecology and genetics of adaptation. Although the genetic architecture of animal coloration is diverse, many color polymorphisms are associated with large...

OConnor T, Laport R, Whiteman N
J Biogeogr . 2019 Sep; 46(3):597-610. PMID: 31534296
Aim: Whole-genome duplication (polyploidy) can influence the biogeography and ecology of plants that differ in ploidy level (cytotype). Here, we address how two consequences of plant polyploidy (parapatry of cytotypes...

Morlon H, OConnor T, Bryant J, Charkoudian L, Docherty K, Jones E, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 Jun; 10(6):e0130659. PMID: 26102275
Understanding patterns in the distribution and abundance of functional traits across a landscape is of fundamental importance to ecology. Mapping these distributions is particularly challenging for species-rich groups with sparse...

OConnor T, Humphrey P, Lapoint R, Whiteman N, OGrady P
Front Microbiol . 2015 Jan; 5:616. PMID: 25566196
Adaptive radiations are characterized by an increased rate of speciation and expanded range of habitats and ecological niches exploited by those species. The Hawaiian Drosophilidae is a classic adaptive radiation;...

Kembel S, OConnor T, Arnold H, Hubbell S, Wright S, Green J
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2014 Sep; 111(38):13715-20. PMID: 25225376
The phyllosphere--the aerial surfaces of plants, including leaves--is a ubiquitous global habitat that harbors diverse bacterial communities. Phyllosphere bacterial communities have the potential to influence plant biogeography and ecosystem function...

Meadow J, Altrichter A, Kembel S, Moriyama M, OConnor T, Womack A, et al.
Microbiome . 2014 Mar; 2(1):7. PMID: 24602274
Background: Humans can spend the majority of their time indoors, but little is known about the interactions between the human and built-environment microbiomes or the forces that drive microbial community...

Kembel S, Meadow J, OConnor T, Mhuireach G, Northcutt D, Kline J, et al.
PLoS One . 2014 Feb; 9(1):e87093. PMID: 24489843
Background: Architectural design has the potential to influence the microbiology of the built environment, with implications for human health and well-being, but the impact of design on the microbial biogeography...
