| lack of genetic isolation by distance, similar genetic structuring but different demographic histories in a fig-pollinating wasp mutualism. | historical abiotic factors such as climatic oscillations and extreme climatic events as well as biotic factors have shaped the structuring of species' genetic diversity. in obligate species-specific mutualisms, the biogeographic histories of the interacting species are tightly linked. this could be particularly true for nuclear genes in the ficus-pollinating wasp mutualistic association as the insects disperse pollen from their natal tree. in this study, we compare spatial genetic structure of p ... | 2015 | 26518361 |

| reconciling field observations of dispersal with estimates of gene flow. | montgomery slatkin, in a classic article concerning the role of gene flow in determining population genetic structure in natural populations noted an inconsistency between observations made in the field of limited dispersal of weakly flying insect and population genetic analyses of genetic structure which revealed extensive gene flow among populations. this phenomenon was subsequently termed slatkin's paradox. in this issue, yu et al.
