The probability of parallel genetic evolution from standing genetic variation by MacPherson, A., Nuismer, S. L.

“…Parallel evolution is often assumed to result from repeated adaptation to novel, yet ecologically similar, environments. Here, we develop and analyse a…”

The effects of migration and drift on local adaptation to a heterogeneous environment by BLANQUART, F., GANDON, S., NUISMER, S. L.

“…Local adaptation experiments are widely used to quantify the levels of adaptation within a heterogeneous environment. However, theoretical studies generally…”

Crossing the threshold: gene flow, dominance and the critical level of standing genetic variation required for adaptation to novel environments by Nuismer, S. L., MacPherson, A., Rosenblum, E. B.

“…Genetic architecture plays an important role in the process of adaptation to novel environments. One example is the role of allelic dominance, where…”

Multidimensional (Co)Evolutionary Stability by Débarre, F., Nuismer, S. L., Doebeli, M.

“…The complexity of biotic and abiotic environmental conditions is such that the fitness of individuals is likely to depend on multiple traits. Using a synthetic…”

Plant polyploidy and non-uniform effects on insect herbivores by Nuismer, Scott L., Thompson, John N.

“…Genomic duplication through polyploidy has played a central role in generating the biodiversity of flowering plants. Nonetheless, how polyploidy shapes species…”

Coevolution between hosts and parasites with partially overlapping geographic ranges by Nuismer, S. L., Thompson, J. N., Gomulkiewicz, R.

“…Many host species interact with a specific parasite within only a fraction of their geographical range. Where host and parasite overlap geographically,…”

Gene flow and geographically structured coevolution by Nuismer, Scott L., Thompson, John N., Gomulkiewicz, Richard

“…Many of the dynamic properties of coevolution may occur at the level of interacting populations, with local adaptation acting as a force of diversification, as…”

COEVOLUTIONARY CLINES ACROSS SELECTION MOSAICS by Nuismer, Scott L, Thompson, John N, Gomulkiewicz, Richard

“…Much of the dynamics of coevolution may be driven by the interplay between geographic variation in reciprocal selection (selection mosaics) and the…”

Sexual selection can constrain sympatric speciation by Kirkpatrick, Mark, Nuismer, Scott L.

“…Recent theory has suggested that sympatric speciation can occur quite easily when individuals that are ecologically similar mate assortatively. Although many…”

contribution of parasitism to selection on floral traits in Heuchera grossulariifolia by NUISMER, S.L, RIDENHOUR, B.J

Hot Spots, Cold Spots, and the Geographic Mosaic Theory of Coevolution by Gomulkiewicz, Richard, Thompson, John N., Holt, Robert D., Nuismer, Scott L., Hochberg, Michael E.

“…Species interactions commonly coevolve as complex geographic mosaics of populations shaped by differences in local selection and gene flow. We use a haploid…”

Plant polyploidy and the evolutionary ecology of plant/animal interactions by Thompson, J.N, Nuismer, S.L, Merg, K

“…Until recently almost nothing was known about the effects of plant polyploidy on interactions with herbivores and pollinators. Studies of the saxifrage…”

Coevolution in Variable Mutualisms by Gomulkiewicz, Richard, Nuismer, Scott L., Thompson, John N.

Coevolution in Temporally Variable Environments by Nuismer, Scott L., Gomulkiewicz, Richard, Morgan, Martin T.

“…Many potentially mutualistic interactions are conditional, with selection that varies between mutualism and antagonism over space and time. We develop a…”
