Repeated evolution on oceanic islands: comparative genomics reveals species-specific processes in birds by María Recuerda, Julio César Hernández Montoya, Guillermo Blanco, Borja Milá

“…Abstract Understanding the interplay between genetic drift, natural selection, gene flow, and demographic history in driving phenotypic and genomic differentiation of insular populations can help us gain insight into the speciation process. Comparing patterns across different insular taxa subjected to similar selective pressures upon colonizing oceanic islands provides the opportunity to study repeated evolution and identify shared patterns in their genomic landscapes of differentiation. …”
