Complex trait divergence contributes to environmental niche differentiation in ecological speciation of Boechera stricta.

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2013

Lee Cheng-Ruei, Mitchell-Olds Thomas

Abstract excerpt

Ecological factors may contribute to reproductive isolation if differential local adaptation causes immigrant or hybrid fitness reduction. Because local adaptation results from the interaction between natural selection and adaptive traits, it is crucial to investigate both to understand ecological speciation. Previously, we used niche modelling to identify local water availability as an environmental correlate of...
