Did you mean genetic selection evolution[ta] (2,981 results)?
Sexual selection and the evolution of condition-dependence: an experimental test at two resource levels.
Bath E, Rostant W, Ostridge HJ, Smith S, Mason JS, Rafaluk-Mohr T, Mank JE, Chapman T, Perry JC. Bath E, et al. Evolution. 2023 Mar 1;77(3):776-788. doi: 10.1093/evolut/qpac066. Evolution. 2023. PMID: 36648108
However, we found no evidence that male condition-dependence increased in response to sexual selection, or that responses depended on resource levels. These results offer no support for the hypotheses that sexual selection increases male condition-dependence or that …

Digest: Sexual selection and evolution of cognition in seed beetles.
Yeung W. Yeung W. Evolution. 2019 Dec;73(12):2538-2539. doi: 10.1111/evo.13858. Epub 2019 Nov 5. Evolution. 2019. PMID: 31584184
Sexual selection is hypothesized to be a driver of the evolution of cognitive ability. ...Standing genetic variation, presumably maintained by balancing selection, is thought to have facilitated this rapid, sex-specific evolution....

How development affects evolution.
González-Forero M. González-Forero M. Evolution. 2023 Feb 4;77(2):562-579. doi: 10.1093/evolut/qpac003. Evolution. 2023. PMID: 36691368
Natural selection acts on developmentally constructed phenotypes, but how does development affect evolution? ...Thus, extra-genetic inheritance can have permanent evolutionary effects by changing the developmental constraints, even if extra-genetically acquir …

The synthesis and the two scenarios.
Beatty J. Beatty J. Evolution. 2022 Feb;76(S1):6-14. doi: 10.1111/evo.14423. Epub 2022 Jan 13. Evolution. 2022. PMID: 34951705
An important plank in the synthesis platform had to do with the importance of selection relative to mutation. Of course, there is no evolutionary change without mutation, and no adaptive evolutionary change without selection. So how could selection be more im …

Stabilizing selection on sperm number revealed by artificial selection and experimental evolution.
Cattelan S, Di Nisio A, Pilastro A. Cattelan S, et al. Evolution. 2018 Mar;72(3):698-706. doi: 10.1111/evo.13425. Epub 2018 Feb 2. Evolution. 2018. PMID: 29337356
Then, we interrupted artificial selection and restored sexual selection. Sperm production responded to divergent selection in one generation, and when we restored sexual selection, both high and low lines converged back to the mean sperm production of …

When does natural selection take place?
Vermeij GJ. Vermeij GJ. Evolution. 2023 Jul 27;77(8):1739-1743. doi: 10.1093/evolut/qpad108. Evolution. 2023. PMID: 37314094
This inconsistency among studies raises the question of when, how often, and how effectively natural selection and the organism's own activities operate to maintain or improve the adapted state. ...Everyday life without such events does not test performance limits and ther …

Convergence, adaptation, and constraint.
Losos JB. Losos JB. Evolution. 2011 Jul;65(7):1827-40. doi: 10.1111/j.1558-5646.2011.01289.x. Epub 2011 Apr 7. Evolution. 2011. PMID: 21729041 Review.
Despite criticism from some systematically minded biologists, I reaffirm that convergence in taxa occupying similar selective environments often is the result of natural selection. However, convergent evolution of a trait in a particular environment can occur for re …

Polygamy and purifying selection in birds.
Wanders K, Chen G, Feng S, Zhang G, Székely T, Bruford M, Végvári Z, Eichhorn G, Urrutia A. Wanders K, et al. Evolution. 2023 Jan 23;77(1):276-288. doi: 10.1093/evolut/qpac010. Evolution. 2023. PMID: 36625454
Good genes theories of sexual selection predict that polygamy will be associated with more efficient removal of deleterious alleles (purifying selection), due to the alignment of sexual selection with natural selection. ...We also show that this effect …

Selection bias in mutation accumulation.
Wahl LM, Agashe D. Wahl LM, et al. Evolution. 2022 Mar;76(3):528-540. doi: 10.1111/evo.14430. Epub 2022 Jan 19. Evolution. 2022. PMID: 34989408
While it has long been appreciated that the action of positive selection during this growth phase cannot be eliminated, it is typically assumed to be negligible. Here, we quantify the effect of both positive and negative selection in MA studies, demonstrating that …

The evolution of phenotypic integration: How directional selection reshapes covariation in mice.
Penna A, Melo D, Bernardi S, Oyarzabal MI, Marroig G. Penna A, et al. Evolution. 2017 Oct;71(10):2370-2380. doi: 10.1111/evo.13304. Epub 2017 Aug 1. Evolution. 2017. PMID: 28685813 Free PMC article.
Covariation can be shaped by complex interactions between loci, and this genetic architecture can also change during evolution. In this article, we analyzed mouse lines experimentally selected for changes in size to address the question of how multivariate covariati …
