Genetic vs. nongenetic inheritance in trait plasticity

Time and place: Jan. 16, 2013 2:15 PM, The Aquarium

Discussions on Epigenetics and Transgenerational Inheritance: Hallsson L.R., S.F. Chenoweth & R. Bonduriansky. 2012. JEB 25: 2422-2431

Species interactions constrain geographic range expansion over evolutionary time

Time and place: Jan. 11, 2013 10:15 AM, Seminar room 3315

We'll be discussing this paper: Pigott & Tobias Ecology Letters 2012 which claims that the rate of transition to sympatry accelerates as ecological differences accumulate. This is taken as evidence for species interactions on evolutionary time scales.
