The impact of learning on sexual selection and speciation

…, GM Kozak, JW Boughman, EI Svensson - Trends in ecology & …, 2012 - cell.com
Learning is widespread in nature, occurring in most animal taxa and in several different
ecological contexts and, thus, might play a key role in evolutionary processes. Here, we review …

Sexual selection in complex environments

CW Miller, EI Svensson - Annual Review of Entomology, 2014 - annualreviews.org
… For instance, Svensson & Sinervo (155) experimentally demonstrated that hatchling
density influenced natural selection on egg size in juvenile side-blotched lizards (ie, density-…

Sexual selection and genetic colour polymorphisms in animals

M Wellenreuther, EI Svensson, B Hansson - Molecular ecology, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Genetic colour polymorphisms are widespread across animals and often subjected to complex
selection regimes. Traditionally, colour morphs were used as simple visual markers to …

Precipitation drives global variation in natural selection

…, RA Martin, BC Sheldon, N Sletvold, EI Svensson… - Science, 2017 - science.org
Climate change has the potential to affect the ecology and evolution of every species on
Earth. Although the ecological consequences of climate change are increasingly well …

Human influences on evolution, and the ecological and societal consequences

…, KM Gotanda, EI Svensson - … Transactions of the …, 2017 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Humans have dramatic, diverse and far-reaching influences on the evolution of other
organisms. Numerous examples of this human-induced contemporary evolution have been …

Female polymorphism, frequency dependence, and rapid evolutionary dynamics in natural populations

EI Svensson, J Abbott, R Härdling - The American Naturalist, 2005 - journals.uchicago.edu
Svensson, unpublished data). To avoid sampling bias of morph frequencies due to seasonal
differences in emergence times of the morphs, we therefore tried to spread our sampling …

Fewer invited talks by women in evolutionary biology symposia

…, CK Hemelrijk, EI Svensson… - Journal of …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Lower visibility of female scientists, compared to male scientists, is a potential reason for the
under‐representation of women among senior academic ranks. Visibility in the scientific …

Density-dependent male mating harassment, female resistance, and male mimicry

TP Gosden, EI Svensson - The American Naturalist, 2009 - journals.uchicago.edu
… The populations in this study are subject to rapid spatial and temporal fluctuations in female
morph frequencies (Svensson and Abbott 2005). The androchrome frequencies in this study …

… positive intersexual correlations; JK Abbott, and EI Svensson, unpubl. data), these data suggest
… individual male mating success in the field (EI Svensson and TP Gosden, unpubl. data). …

Resistance and tolerance in animal enemy–victim coevolution

EI Svensson, L Råberg - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2010 - cell.com
Victim defence against enemies can be divided into resistance (minimizing successful
enemy attacks) and tolerance (minimizing the fitness impact of enemy attacks). Although …
