Emerging patterns in the comparative analysis of phylogenetic community structure (2009, background): “Because in many groups pervasive sympatric speciation appears unlikely ( Bolnick & Fitzpatrick 2007 ), we suspect the possibility of parallel allopatric speciation driving evenness will interest more evolutionary ecologists.”
Identifying future research needs in landscape genetics: where to from here? (2009, background): “However, in complex environments the strict allopatric model may not be adequate (Via 2001; Bolnick and Fitzpatrick 2007 ).”
Divergence with Gene Flow: Models and Data (2010, background): “This shortage is called linkage disequilibrium, and it is a key prerequisite for speciation in most models of divergence in the absence of a geographic barrier (Bolnick & Fitzpatrick 2007, Felsenstein 1981, Gavrilets 2003, Rice & Hostert 1993).”
THE BIOLOGY OF SPECIATION (2010, background): “Models of sympatric speciation require the simultaneous evolution of at least two forms of reproductive isolation, assortative mating and isolation due to adaptation (such as extrinsic postzygotic that would result from adaptation to a novel food source) (Bolnick and Fitzpatrick 2007).”
Hybridization and the species problem in conservation (2015, methodology): “We will not attempt a thorough review (see Coyne and Orr, 2004; Bolnick and Fitzpatrick, 2007; Grant and Grant, 2008; Price, 2008; Fitzpatrick, 2012; Abbott et al., 2013).”
Underappreciated Consequences of Phenotypic Plasticity for Ecological Speciation (2012, background): “More generally, geographic or spatial covariance is a special case of environmental similarity, and the extensive knowledge from decades of conceptual and mathematical modeling of gene flow’s effects on adaptation and speciation [30, 31, 87, 114, 115] can be extended directly to include this kind of”
Parasite diversity, patterns of MHC II variation and olfactory based mate choice in diverging three-spined stickleback ecotypes (2011, background): “…based on neutral evolutionary processes are widely accepted (Maynard Smith 1966; Mayr 1942), the idea that ecology can play a major role in species formation has recently re-emerged (Bolnick and Fitzpatrick 2007; Dieckmann et al. 2004; Hendry 2009; Schluter and Rambaut 1996; van Doorn et al. 2009).”
Ecological Opportunity and Adaptive Radiation (2016, background): “…and the discovery of a slew of suggestive examples have caused the pendulum to swing in the opposite direction, and such sympatric ecological speciation is now considered a likely phenomenon by many (e.g., Bolnick & Fitzpatrick 2007, Givnish 2010, Bird et al. 2012, Nosil 2012, Mullen & Shaw 2014).”
