Contemporary evolution during invasion: evidence for differentiation, natural selection, and local adaptation.

Molecular ecology - 1 May 2015

Colautti Robert I, Lau Jennifer A

Abstract excerpt

Biological invasions are 'natural' experiments that can improve our understanding of contemporary evolution. We evaluate evidence for population differentiation, natural selection and adaptive evolution of invading plants and animals at two nested spatial scales: (i) among introduced populations (ii) between native and introduced genotypes. Evolution during invasion is frequently inferred, but rarely confirmed as...
