Frequent origins of traumatic insemination involve convergent shifts in sperm and genital morphology

J. N. Brand, L. Harmon, L. Schaerer

The paper identifies multiple independent evolutionary origins of traumatic insemination in flatworms and shows convergent morphological shifts driven by sexual selection and conflict.

A White Noise Approach to Evolutionary Ecology

B. Week, S. Nuismer, L. Harmon, S. Krone

The paper develops a stochastic model using white noise to study evolutionary ecology, showing independence between selection gradients and competition coefficients, while highlighting positive correlations between their absolute values and competition coefficients.

A unified model of species abundance, genetic diversity, and functional diversity revealsthe mechanisms structuring ecological communities

I. Overcast, M. Ruffley, J. Rosindell, L. Harmon, P. A. V. Borges, B. C. Emerson, R. Etienne, R. Gillespie, H. Krehenwinkel, D. L. Mahler, F. Massol, C. Parent, J. Patino, B. Peter, B. Week, , A. Rominger

The paper introduces a mechanistic model integrating species abundance, genetic diversity, and functional diversity to infer ecological community assembly processes using tropical tree, arthropod, and gastropod communities.

Inference of evolutionary jumps in large phylogenies using Levy processes

P. Duchen, C. Leuenberger, S. M. Szilagyi, L. Harmon, J. Eastman, M. Schweizer, D. Wegmann

The paper develops an efficient algorithm to infer evolutionary jumps in large phylogenies and applies it to Anolis lizards and Loriini parrots, finding strong signals at the bases of clades transitioning into new adaptive zones.
