Does Urbanization Alter Purifying Selection? A Case Study in the Burrowing Owl.

Integrative and comparative biology - 13 Sept 2025

Caizergues Aude E

Abstract excerpt

Urbanization is one of the most striking examples of anthropogenic disturbance dramatically altering ecosystems and evolutionary processes. In particular, natural selection and genetic drift are expected to be affected by the drastic changes in urban environmental conditions and landscape fragmentation. Whether selection strength increases or decreases in cities remains to be elucidated, especially since it is...
