What Are the Environmental Determinants of Phenotypic Selection? A Meta-analysis of Experimental Studies (2017)
Journal Article

Although many selection estimates have been published, the environmental factors that cause selection to vary in space and time have rarely been identified. One way to identify these factors is by experimentally manipulating the environment and measu... Read More about What Are the Environmental Determinants of Phenotypic Selection?

Abiotic environmental variation drives virulence evolution in a fish host-parasite geographic mosaic (2017)
Journal Article

1. Parasite virulence varies greatly. Theory predicts that this arises from parasites optimising a trade-off between the mortality they inflict on current hosts, and their transmission to future hosts. The effect of the environment on this coevolutio... Read More about Abiotic environmental variation drives virulence evolution in a fish host-parasite geographic mosaic.

Precipitation drives global variation in natural selection (2017)
Journal Article

Climate change has the potential to affect the ecology and evolution of every species on Earth. While the ecological consequences of climate change are increasingly well documented, the effects of climate on the key evolutionary process driving adapt...

Eda haplotypes in three-spined stickleback are associated with variation in immune gene expression (2017)
Journal Article

Haplotypes underlying local adaptation and speciation are predicted to have numerous phenotypic effects, but few genes involved have been identified, with much work to date concentrating on visible, morphological, phenotypes. The link between genes c... Read More about Eda haplotypes in three-spined stickleback are associated with variation in immune gene expression.
