Species identification using genetic tools: the value of nuclear and mitochondrial gene sequences in whale conservationS R Palumbi
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
J Hered 89:459-64. 1998..These intron sequences are thus good tools for the identification of these species and will afford a chance to identify putative hybrid blue/fin whales thought to have entered the retail market after 1989...
All males are not created equal: fertility differences depend on gamete recognition polymorphisms in sea urchinsS R Palumbi
Department of Organismic Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 96:12632-7. 1999..They also suggest that positive selection at gamete recognition loci like bindin involves strong selection within species on mate choice interactions...
Predicting nuclear gene coalescence from mitochondrial data: the three-times ruleS R Palumbi
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge Massachusetts 02138, USA
Evolution 55:859-68. 2001..The three-times rule may be useful as an empirical benchmark for evaluating evolutionary processes occurring at multiple loci...
Humans as the world's greatest evolutionary forceS R Palumbi
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Science 293:1786-90. 2001..Slowing and controlling arms races in disease and pest management have been successful in diverse ecological and economic systems, illustrating how applied evolutionary principles can help reduce the impact of humankind on evolution...
Developmental shifts and species selection in gastropodsT F Duda

Rapid recovery of genetic diversity of stomatopod populations on Krakatau: temporal and spatial scales of marine larval dispersalP H Barber
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Proc Biol Sci 269:1591-7. 2002..Results from stomatopods indicate that marine reserves should be spaced no more than 50-100 km apart to facilitate ecological connectivity via larval dispersal...
Evolutionary diversification of multigene families: allelic selection of toxins in predatory cone snailsT F Duda
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Biological Laboratories, Harvard University, USA
Mol Biol Evol 17:1286-93. 2000..These patterns suggest that venoms of closely related CONUS: species may differ due to the differential expression of conotoxin loci...
Molecular genetics of ecological diversification: duplication and rapid evolution of toxin genes of the venomous gastropod ConusT F Duda
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Biological Laboratories, Harvard University, 16 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 96:6820-3. 1999..Gene duplication and diversifying selection result in the formation of functionally variable conotoxins that are linked to ecological diversification and evolutionary success of this genus...
Sharp genetic breaks among populations of Haptosquilla pulchella (Stomatopoda) indicate limits to larval transport: patterns, causes, and consequencesP H Barber
Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Mol Ecol 11:659-74. 2002....
