Asexuality is a derived character, and asexual species have emerged multiple times independently throughout evolution. In animals, parthenogenesis, whereby a zygote inherits only its mother genome, requires female meiosis modification to pr...

Selection often favours different phenotypes in males and females, driving the evolu- tion of sex-specific genetic architectures that facilitate sexual dimorphism. Previous theory based on single-locus models has shown how such architecture...

Animal taxa exhibiting post-hatching care can be found throughout the animal kingdom. During this period, parents aggregate with their offspring and allow them to invest their resources into growth and development as parents take over energ...

Whilst there is a growing appreciation that mitochondrial divergence across lineages is not selectively neutral, less work has examined the functional differences that may exist in closely divergent taxa. We measured mitochondrial oxygen co...

Spermatozoal morphology is highly variable both within and among species, often corresponding to variation in the shape of the female sperm storage organs in ways that can significantly impact fertilization success. In an effort to understa...

Whether evolution is predictable has been tested in evolutionary biology by comparing lineages that experienced parallel evolution. For example, the repeatability of gene expression between strains was examined in the experimental evolution...

Adaptation requires an evolving strategy and an environment. Starting from environmental patterns, we predict which strategies are adapted. Given a strategy, we want to know in which environments it might be adapted. Annual killifish embryo...

The tendency for the genital morphology of animals to diverge more rapidly than other traits is one of the most pervasive evolutionary patterns in animal form. Current controversy regarding explanations of this pattern stems in part from th...

Complex eukaryotes generally express different traits as they grow and develop to facilitate their function in different ecological niches. Theory suggests the evolution of differentiation between life stages is facilitated by the expressio...
