Sentence examples for Rare dispersal from inspiring English sources

In other cases, ecologically rare dispersal may nevertheless be large enough to be evolutionarily important, resulting in genetic differentiation that is indistinguishable from zero because of sampling error [60].

However, in the past, when many more warblers were present across the Seychelles, rare dispersal events would easily have maintained genetic diversity across small island populations.

The ability of apomicts to found populations with a single diaspore may have enhanced the success of rare dispersal events (Hörandl et al., 2008).

The IBD slope is expected to be heavily affected by dispersal during the several most recent generations, and is not affected by rare dispersal events (Rousset 1997).

Rapid species radiations and imbalanced phylogenies, high temporal turnover of lineages, and rare dispersal events can result in large variations between S and PD (Davies and Buckley, 2011; Tucker and Cadotte, 2013).

Using IBD to estimate dispersal is attractive because it is less affected by historically rare dispersal events and only requires the distance between the samples rather than knowledge of population genetic boundaries (Rousset 1997; Hardy and Vekemans 1999).

A combination of the first colonizer's advantageous position to occupy empty niches and rare overwater dispersal events of their closely related species leads to competitive exclusion and lower probability for newcomers to establish viable populations on already occupied islands136,137,138.

Records of wandering Mexican jays from desert basins between sky islands are extremely rare, thus, dispersal among sky islands appears to be infrequent, if it occurs at all.

In order to understand the consequences of climate changes on the distribution and genetic structure of snail populations, the study of species with rare human dispersal should be preferred.

Accordingly, the extant distributions of species and subspecies of the P. amabilis complex may have largely been shaped by vicariance events, with relatively rare events of dispersal + vicariance or dispersal.

Each flower yields a single fruit that rapidly matures, and seeds are primarily dispersed through gravity, although rare long-distance dispersal may occur (Campitelli and Stinchcombe 2013a), most likely from agricultural activity, as in other Ipomoea species (Epperson and Clegg 1986).
