Geographic and Ecological Dimensions of Host Plant-Associated Genetic Differentiation and Speciation in the <i>Rhagoletis cingulata</i> (Diptera: Tephritidae) Sibling Species Group

Geographic and Ecological Dimensions of Host Plant-Associated Genetic Differentiation and Speciation in the <i>Rhagoletis cingulata</i> (Diptera: Tephritidae) Sibling Species Group

Ascertaining the causes of adaptive radiation is central to understanding how new species arise and come to vary with their resources. The ecological theory posits adaptive radiation via divergent natural selection associated with novel resource use; an alternative suggests character displacement fo...
