Rundle, Howard - University of Ottawa

研究领域

Dr. Rundle’s research focuses on the roles of natural and sexual selection in the evolution of phenotypic diversity and the origin of new species. Emphasis is placed on understanding how sexual selection (arising via mate choice) operates within populations, its effect on adaptation and population mean fitness, and how it interacts with divergent selection and genetic drift to cause the evolution of new species. His approach to these topics is empirical and utilizes experimental evolution and quantitative genetics, with fruit flies (Drosophila serrata) serving as the model organism.
