Abstract Understanding the factors that drive spatial synchrony among populations or species is important for management and recovery of populations. The range‐wide declines in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations may be the result of broad‐

Abstract Reproductive isolation can occur due to divergence in sexual selection for particular traits. For example, differences in mate preference associated with body size can play an important role in divergence between groups. The importance of ma

Abstract Fisheries‐induced evolution (FIE) can result when harvest imposes artificial selection on variation in heritable phenotypic traits. While there is evidence for FIE, it remains difficult to disentangle the contributions of within‐generati

Competition from non-native salmonids is potentially impairing efforts to restore Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to parts of their historical range. In three separate meta-analyses, we collected 104 effect sizes from 25 published papers to quantify th

Sexual strategies theory indicates women prefer mates who show the ability and willingness to invest in a long-term mate due to asymmetries in obligate parental care of children. Consequently, women's potential mates must show they can provide invest

In many mating systems, large male body size is associated with dominance in direct contests with rivals and females may exhibit preference for larger males. As such, body size is often positively associated with mating success. However, mating exper

Nuptial colouration in animals may serve as a signal of competitor and (or) mate quality during breeding. In many temperate fishes, nuptial colouration develops during discrete breeding seasons and is a target of sexual selection. We examine nuptial

Cell Stress Chaperones
In their role as molecular chaperones, heat shock proteins (Hsps) mediate protein folding thereby mitigating cellular damage caused by physiological and environmental stress. Nauplii of the crustacean Artemia franciscana respond to heat shock by prod
