Genetic architecture and evolution of the S locus supergene in Primula vulgaris (2016)
Journal Article
Li, J., Cocker, J. M., Wright, J., Webster, M. A., McMullan, M., Dyer, S., …Gilmartin, P. M. (2016). Genetic architecture and evolution of the S locus supergene in Primula vulgaris. Nature Plants, 2(12), Article 16188. https://doi.org/10.1038/nplants.2016.188

Darwin's studies on heterostyly in Primula described two floral morphs, pin and thrum, with reciprocal anther and stigma heights that promote insect-mediated cross-pollination. This key innovation evolved independently in several angiosperm families.... Read More about Genetic architecture and evolution of the S locus supergene in Primula vulgaris.

Genetic factors affecting establishment during invasions : the introduction of the topmouth gudgeon (Pseudorasbora parva) and the rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in Europe (2012)

The study of biological invasions is a major research topic, both because of the ecological and economical damage caused by invasive species and also as a great natural experiment to study evolutionary responses of non-native populations to their new...

Population genetics of the cichlid, Cynotilapia afra (Günther 1894), in its native and introduced ranges in Lake Malawi (2010)
Thesis

Species introductions can provide unplanned and occasionally replicated experiments that can be studied to understand fundamental ecological and evolutionary processes associated with range expansions in the natural world. The cichlid species flock o... Read More about Population genetics of the cichlid, Cynotilapia afra (Günther 1894), in its native and introduced ranges in Lake Malawi.

This study was conducted between January 2003 and November 2004 to determine the effects of season (mating and non-mating), feeding regime and time period on voluntary swimming speeds, spatial distribution and behaviours of sand tiger sharks (Carchar...
