Ecosystem size matters: The dimensionality of intralacustrine diversification in Icelandic stickleback is predicted by lake size ...
Cases of evolutionary diversification can be characterized along a continuum from weak to strong genetic and phenotypic differentiation. Several factors may facilitate or constrain the differentiation process. Comparative analyses of replicates of the same taxon at different stages of differentiatio...

Cases of evolutionary diversification can be characterized along a continuum from weak to strong genetic and phenotypic differentiation.

Comparative analyses of replicates of the same taxon at different stages of differentiation can be useful to identify these factors.
