The global spread of Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae): distribution, dispersal and routes of invasion

PMJ Brown, CE Thomas, E Lombaert, DL Jeffries… - BioControl, 2011 - Springer
Released as a biological control agent of aphids and coccids, Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera:
Coccinellidae) has spread from Asia to four additional continents. Since 1988 H. axyridis …

Expanding the classical paradigm: what we have learnt from vertebrates about sex chromosome evolution

…, M Bullejos, A Herpin, DL Jeffries… - … of the Royal …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Until recently, the field of sex chromosome evolution has been dominated by the canonical
unidirectional scenario, first developed by Muller in 1918. This model postulates that sex …

Comparing RADseq and microsatellites to infer complex phylogeographic patterns, an empirical perspective in the Crucian carp, Carassius carassius, L.

DL Jeffries, GH Copp, L Lawson Handley… - Molecular …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
The conservation of threatened species must be underpinned by phylogeographic knowledge.
This need is epitomized by the freshwater fish Carassius carassius, which is in decline …

[HTML][HTML] A rapid rate of sex-chromosome turnover and non-random transitions in true frogs

DL Jeffries, G Lavanchy, R Sermier, MJ Sredl… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
The canonical model of sex-chromosome evolution predicts that, as recombination is
suppressed along sex chromosomes, gametologs will progressively differentiate, eventually …

A neutral model for the loss of recombination on sex chromosomes

DL Jeffries, JF Gerchen… - … Transactions of the …, 2021 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The loss of recombination between sex chromosomes has occurred repeatedly throughout
nature, with important implications for their subsequent evolution. Explanations for this …

Are glacial refugia hotspots of speciation and cytonuclear discordances? Answers from the genomic phylogeography of Spanish common frogs

…, SN Litvinchuk, N Rodrigues, DL Jeffries… - Molecular …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Subdivided Pleistocene glacial refugia, best known as “refugia within refugia”, provided
opportunities for diverging populations to evolve into incipient species and/or to hybridize and …

…, M Stöck, S Dubey, D Canestrelli, DL Jeffries - Frontiers in Ecology …, 2018 - frontiersin.org
Despite increasing appreciation of the “speciation continuum”, delimiting and describing
new species is a major yet necessary challenge of modern phylogeography to help optimize …

[HTML][HTML] Characteristics and drivers of high-altitude ladybird flight: insights from vertical-looking entomological radar

DL Jeffries, J Chapman, HE Roy, S Humphries… - PloS one, 2013 - journals.plos.org
Understanding the characteristics and drivers of dispersal is crucial for predicting population
