  • Connecting microevolutionary processes with macroevolutionary patterns across space and time

    Creator:
    Uyeda, Josef C.
    Abstract:
    Whether microevolutionary processes can explain macroevolutionary patterns has long been a matter of contentious debate. The debate has persisted largely because of the challenging task of connecting microevolutionary theory, which examines population-level phenomena on the generation scale, to data collected across larger spatial and temporal scales. My dissertation research broadly...

  • On the evolution of correlated color traits in garter snakes

    Creator:
    Westphal, Michael F.
    Abstract:
    How complex traits evolve continues to be a major focus of evolutionary investigation. A current topic of debate is the hypothesis that the phenotypic integration of complex traits gives rise to evolutionary constraints. I studied two color traits in the common garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis, that show a high level...
