The genetics of adaptive shape shift in stickleback: pleiotropy and effect sizeArianne Y K Albert
Department of Zoology and Biodiversity Research Centre, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC, Canada
Evolution 62:76-85. 2008..Our results are consistent with predictions of the geometric model of adaptation. Shape evolution in stickleback results from a few genes with large and possibly widespread effects and multiple genes of smaller effect...
Reproductive character displacement of male stickleback mate preference: reinforcement or direct selection?A Y K Albert
Department of Zoology and Centre for Biodiversity Research, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6T 1Z4, Canada
Evolution 58:1099-107. 2004..Direct selection is potentially more effective than indirect selection via reinforcement, and it is likely that it has been important in building up reproductive isolation between limnetic and benthic sticklebacks...
Selection and the origin of speciesArianne Y K Albert
Zoology Department and Biodiversity Research Centre, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada
Curr Biol 15:R283-8. 2005
Mate choice, sexual imprinting, and speciation: a test of a one-allele isolating mechanism in sympatric sticklebacksArianne Y K Albert
Department of Zoology and Centre for Biodiversity Research, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia V6T 1Z4, Canada
Evolution 59:927-31. 2005....
Sexual selection can resolve sex-linked sexual antagonismArianne Y K Albert
Department of Zoology, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia V6T 1Z4, Canada
Science 310:119-21. 2005..In contrast, with a Z-linked trait (males ZZ, females ZW), females more often evolve mating preferences for mates carrying alleles beneficial to sons (that is, flashy displays)...
