  text: Herd immunity, a process in which resistant individuals limit the spread of
    a pathogen among susceptible hosts has been extensively studied in eukaryotes.
    Even though bacteria have evolved multiple immune systems against their phage
    pathogens, herd immunity in bacteria remains unexplored. Here we experimentally
    demonstrate that herd immunity arises during phage epidemics in structured and
    unstructured Escherichia coli populations consisting of differing frequencies
    of susceptible and resistant cells harboring CRISPR immunity. In addition, we
    develop a mathematical model that quantifies how herd immunity is affected by
    spatial population structure, bacterial growth rate, and phage replication rate.
    Using our model we infer a general epidemiological rule describing the relative
    speed of an epidemic in partially resistant spatially structured populations.
    Our experimental and theoretical findings indicate that herd immunity may be important
    in bacterial communities, allowing for stable coexistence of bacteria and their
    phages and the maintenance of polymorphism in bacterial immunity.

  text: Adaptive introgression is common in nature and can be driven by selection
    acting on multiple, linked genes. We explore the effects of polygenic selection
    on introgression under the infinitesimal model with linkage. This model assumes
    that the introgressing block has an effectively infinite number of genes, each
    with an infinitesimal effect on the trait under selection. The block is assumed
    to introgress under directional selection within a native population that is genetically
    homogeneous. We use individual-based simulations and a branching process approximation
    to compute various statistics of the introgressing block, and explore how these
    depend on parameters such as the map length and initial trait value associated
    with the introgressing block, the genetic variability along the block, and the
    strength of selection. Our results show that the introgression dynamics of a block
    under infinitesimal selection is qualitatively different from the dynamics of
    neutral introgression. We also find that in the long run, surviving descendant
    blocks are likely to have intermediate lengths, and clarify how the length is
    shaped by the interplay between linkage and infinitesimal selection. Our results
    suggest that it may be difficult to distinguish introgression of single loci from
    that of genomic blocks with multiple, tightly linked and weakly selected loci.

  text: 'Pedigree and sibship reconstruction are important methods in quantifying
    relationships and fitness of individuals in natural populations. Current methods
    employ a Markov chain-based algorithm to explore plausible possible pedigrees
    iteratively. This provides accurate results, but is time-consuming. Here, we develop
    a method to infer sibship and paternity relationships from half-sibling arrays
    of known maternity using hierarchical clustering. Given 50 or more unlinked SNP
    markers and empirically derived error rates, the method performs as well as the
    widely used package Colony, but is faster by two orders of magnitude. Using simulations,
    we show that the method performs well across contrasting mating scenarios, even
    when samples are large. We then apply the method to open-pollinated arrays of
    the snapdragon Antirrhinum majus and find evidence for a high degree of multiple
    mating. Although we focus on diploid SNP data, the method does not depend on marker
    type and as such has broad applications in nonmodel systems. '

  text: 'More than 100 years after Grigg’s influential analysis of species’ borders,
    the causes of limits to species’ ranges still represent a puzzle that has never
    been understood with clarity. The topic has become especially important recently
    as many scientists have become interested in the potential for species’ ranges
    to shift in response to climate change—and yet nearly all of those studies fail
    to recognise or incorporate evolutionary genetics in a way that relates to theoretical
    developments. I show that range margins can be understood based on just two measurable
    parameters: (i) the fitness cost of dispersal—a measure of environmental heterogeneity—and
    (ii) the strength of genetic drift, which reduces genetic diversity. Together,
    these two parameters define an ‘expansion threshold’: adaptation fails when genetic
    drift reduces genetic diversity below that required for adaptation to a heterogeneous
    environment. When the key parameters drop below this expansion threshold locally,
    a sharp range margin forms. When they drop below this threshold throughout the
    species’ range, adaptation collapses everywhere, resulting in either extinction
    or formation of a fragmented metapopulation. Because the effects of dispersal
    differ fundamentally with dimension, the second parameter—the strength of genetic
    drift—is qualitatively different compared to a linear habitat. In two-dimensional
    habitats, genetic drift becomes effectively independent of selection. It decreases
    with ‘neighbourhood size’—the number of individuals accessible by dispersal within
    one generation. Moreover, in contrast to earlier predictions, which neglected
    evolution of genetic variance and/or stochasticity in two dimensions, dispersal
    into small marginal populations aids adaptation. This is because the reduction
    of both genetic and demographic stochasticity has a stronger effect than the cost
    of dispersal through increased maladaptation. The expansion threshold thus provides
    a novel, theoretically justified, and testable prediction for formation of the
    range margin and collapse of the species’ range.'

  text: 'Self-incompatibility (SI) is a genetically based recognition system that
    functions to prevent self-fertilization and mating among related plants. An enduring
    puzzle in SI is how the high diversity observed in nature arises and is maintained.
    Based on the underlying recognition mechanism, SI can be classified into two main
    groups: self- and non-self recognition. Most work has focused on diversification
    within self-recognition systems despite expected differences between the two groups
    in the evolutionary pathways and outcomes of diversification. Here, we use a deterministic
    population genetic model and stochastic simulations to investigate how novel S-haplotypes
    evolve in a gametophytic non-self recognition (SRNase/S Locus F-box (SLF)) SI
    system. For this model the pathways for diversification involve either the maintenance
    or breakdown of SI and can vary in the order of mutations of the female (SRNase)
    and male (SLF) components. We show analytically that diversification can occur
    with high inbreeding depression and self-pollination, but this varies with evolutionary
    pathway and level of completeness (which determines the number of potential mating
    partners in the population), and in general is more likely for lower haplotype
    number. The conditions for diversification are broader in stochastic simulations
    of finite population size. However, the number of haplotypes observed under high
    inbreeding and moderate to high self-pollination is less than that commonly observed
    in nature. Diversification was observed through pathways that maintain SI as well
    as through self-compatible intermediates. Yet the lifespan of diversified haplotypes
    was sensitive to their level of completeness. By examining diversification in
    a non-self recognition SI system, this model extends our understanding of the
    evolution and maintenance of haplotype diversity observed in a self recognition
    system common in flowering plants.'

  text: Secondary contact is the reestablishment of gene flow between sister populations
    that have diverged. For instance, at the end of the Quaternary glaciations in
    Europe, secondary contact occurred during the northward expansion of the populations
    which had found refugia in the southern peninsulas. With the advent of multi-locus
    markers, secondary contact can be investigated using various molecular signatures
    including gradients of allele frequency, admixture clines, and local increase
    of genetic differentiation. We use coalescent simulations to investigate if molecular
    data provide enough information to distinguish between secondary contact following
    range expansion and an alternative evolutionary scenario consisting of a barrier
    to gene flow in an isolation-by-distance model. We find that an excess of linkage
    disequilibrium and of genetic diversity at the suture zone is a unique signature
    of secondary contact. We also find that the directionality index ψ, which was
    proposed to study range expansion, is informative to distinguish between the two
    hypotheses. However, although evidence for secondary contact is usually conveyed
    by statistics related to admixture coefficients, we find that they can be confounded
    by isolation-by-distance. We recommend to account for the spatial repartition
    of individuals when investigating secondary contact in order to better reflect
    the complex spatio-temporal evolution of populations and species.

  text: 'Genomes of closely-related species or populations often display localized
    regions of enhanced relative sequence divergence, termed genomic islands. It has
    been proposed that these islands arise through selective sweeps and/or barriers
    to gene flow. Here, we genetically dissect a genomic island that controls flower
    color pattern differences between two subspecies of Antirrhinum majus, A.m.striatum
    and A.m.pseudomajus, and relate it to clinal variation across a natural hybrid
    zone. We show that selective sweeps likely raised relative divergence at two tightly-linked
    MYB-like transcription factors, leading to distinct flower patterns in the two
    subspecies. The two patterns provide alternate floral guides and create a strong
    barrier to gene flow where populations come into contact. This barrier affects
    the selected flower color genes and tightlylinked loci, but does not extend outside
    of this domain, allowing gene flow to lower relative divergence for the rest of
    the chromosome. Thus, both selective sweeps and barriers to gene flow play a role
    in shaping genomic islands: sweeps cause elevation in relative divergence, while
    heterogeneous gene flow flattens the surrounding "sea," making the island of divergence
    stand out. By showing how selective sweeps establish alternative adaptive phenotypes
    that lead to barriers to gene flow, our study sheds light on possible mechanisms
    leading to reproductive isolation and speciation.'

  text: We study how a block of genome with a large number of weakly selected loci
    introgresses under directional selection into a genetically homogeneous population.
    We derive exact expressions for the expected rate of growth of any fragment of
    the introduced block during the initial phase of introgression, and show that
    the growth rate of a single-locus variant is largely insensitive to its own additive
    effect, but depends instead on the combined effect of all loci within a characteristic
    linkage scale. The expected growth rate of a fragment is highly correlated with
    its long-term introgression probability in populations of moderate size, and can
    hence identify variants that are likely to introgress across replicate populations.
    We clarify how the introgression probability of an individual variant is determined
    by the interplay between hitchhiking with relatively large fragments during the
    early phase of introgression and selection on fine-scale variation within these,
    which at longer times results in differential introgression probabilities for
    beneficial and deleterious loci within successful fragments. By simulating individuals,
    we also investigate how introgression probabilities at individual loci depend
    on the variance of fitness effects, the net fitness of the introduced block, and
    the size of the recipient population, and how this shapes the net advance under
    selection. Our work suggests that even highly replicable substitutions may be
    associated with a range of selective effects, which makes it challenging to fine
    map the causal loci that underlie polygenic adaptation.

  text: Hanemaaijer et al. (Molecular Ecology, 27, 2018) describe the genetic consequences
    of the introgression of an insecticide resistance allele into a mosquito population.
    Linked alleles initially increased, but many of these later declined. It is hard
    to determine whether this decline was due to counter‐selection, rather than simply
    to chance.

  text: Herd immunity, a process in which resistant individuals limit the spread of
    a pathogen among susceptible hosts has been extensively studied in eukaryotes.
    Even though bacteria have evolved multiple immune systems against their phage
    pathogens, herd immunity in bacteria remains unexplored. Here we experimentally
    demonstrate that herd immunity arises during phage epidemics in structured and
    unstructured Escherichia coli populations consisting of differing frequencies
    of susceptible and resistant cells harboring CRISPR immunity. In addition, we
    develop a mathematical model that quantifies how herd immunity is affected by
    spatial population structure, bacterial growth rate, and phage replication rate.
    Using our model we infer a general epidemiological rule describing the relative
    speed of an epidemic in partially resistant spatially structured populations.
    Our experimental and theoretical findings indicate that herd immunity may be important
    in bacterial communities, allowing for stable coexistence of bacteria and their
    phages and the maintenance of polymorphism in bacterial immunity.

  text: In this issue of GENETICS, a new method for detecting natural selection on
    polygenic traits is developed and applied to sev- eral human examples ( Racimo
    et al. 2018 ). By de fi nition, many loci contribute to variation in polygenic
    traits, and a challenge for evolutionary ge neticists has been that these traits
    can evolve by small, nearly undetectable shifts in allele frequencies across each
    of many, typically unknown, loci. Recently, a helpful remedy has arisen. Genome-wide
    associ- ation studies (GWAS) have been illuminating sets of loci that can be interrogated
    jointly for c hanges in allele frequencies. By aggregating small signal s of change
    across many such loci, directional natural selection is now in principle detect-
    able using genetic data, even for highly polygenic traits. This is an exciting
    arena of progress – with these methods, tests can be made for selection associated
    with traits, and we can now study selection in what may be its most prevalent
    mode. The continuing fast pace of GWAS publications suggest there will be many
    more polygenic tests of selection in the near future, as every new GWAS is an
    opportunity for an accom- panying test of polygenic selection. However, it is
    important to be aware of complications th at arise in interpretation, especially
    given that these studies may easily be misinter- preted both in and outside the
    evolutionary genetics commu- nity. Here, we provide context for understanding
    polygenic tests and urge caution regarding how these results are inter- preted
    and reported upon more broadly.

  text: "Frequency-independent selection is generally considered as a force that acts
    to reduce the genetic variation in evolving populations, yet rigorous arguments
    for this idea are scarce. When selection fluctuates in time, it is unclear whether
    frequency-independent selection may maintain genetic polymorphism without invoking
    additional mechanisms. We show that constant frequency-independent selection with
    arbitrary epistasis on a well-mixed haploid population eliminates genetic variation
    if we assume linkage equilibrium between alleles. To this end, we introduce the
    notion of frequency-independent selection at the level of alleles, which is sufficient
    to prove our claim and contains the notion of frequency-independent selection
    on haploids. When selection and recombination are weak but of the same order,
    there may be strong linkage disequilibrium; numerical calculations show that stable
    equilibria are highly unlikely. Using the example of a diallelic two-locus model,
    we then demonstrate that frequency-independent selection that fluctuates in time
    can maintain stable polymorphism if linkage disequilibrium changes its sign periodically.
    We put our findings in the context of results from the existing literature and
    point out those scenarios in which the possible role of frequency-independent
    selection in maintaining genetic variation remains unclear.\r\n"

  text: Mutator strains are expected to evolve when the availability and effect of
    beneficial mutations are high enough to counteract the disadvantage from deleterious
    mutations that will inevitably accumulate. As the population becomes more adapted
    to its environment, both availability and effect of beneficial mutations necessarily
    decrease and mutation rates are predicted to decrease. It has been shown that
    certain molecular mechanisms can lead to increased mutation rates when the organism
    finds itself in a stressful environment. While this may be a correlated response
    to other functions, it could also be an adaptive mechanism, raising mutation rates
    only when it is most advantageous. Here, we use a mathematical model to investigate
    the plausibility of the adaptive hypothesis. We show that such a mechanism can
    be mantained if the population is subjected to diverse stresses. By simulating
    various antibiotic treatment schemes, we find that combination treatments can
    reduce the effectiveness of second-order selection on stress-induced mutagenesis.
    We discuss the implications of our results to strategies of antibiotic therapy.

  text: Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) form a popular optimisation paradigm inspired
    by natural evolution. In recent years the field of evolutionary computation has
    developed a rigorous analytical theory to analyse the runtimes of EAs on many
    illustrative problems. Here we apply this theory to a simple model of natural
    evolution. In the Strong Selection Weak Mutation (SSWM) evolutionary regime the
    time between occurrences of new mutations is much longer than the time it takes
    for a mutated genotype to take over the population. In this situation, the population
    only contains copies of one genotype and evolution can be modelled as a stochastic
    process evolving one genotype by means of mutation and selection between the resident
    and the mutated genotype. The probability of accepting the mutated genotype then
    depends on the change in fitness. We study this process, SSWM, from an algorithmic
    perspective, quantifying its expected optimisation time for various parameters
    and investigating differences to a similar evolutionary algorithm, the well-known
    (1+1) EA. We show that SSWM can have a moderate advantage over the (1+1) EA at
    crossing fitness valleys and study an example where SSWM outperforms the (1+1)
    EA by taking advantage of information on the fitness gradient.

  text: The behaviour of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is typically analysed using
    simulation-based statistical testing-like methods. In this paper, we demonstrate
    that we can replace this approach by a formal verification-like method that gives
    higher assurance and scalability. We focus on Wagner’s weighted GRN model with
    varying weights, which is used in evolutionary biology. In the model, weight parameters
    represent the gene interaction strength that may change due to genetic mutations.
    For a property of interest, we synthesise the constraints over the parameter space
    that represent the set of GRNs satisfying the property. We experimentally show
    that our parameter synthesis procedure computes the mutational robustness of GRNs—an
    important problem of interest in evolutionary biology—more efficiently than the
    classical simulation method. We specify the property in linear temporal logic.
    We employ symbolic bounded model checking and SMT solving to compute the space
    of GRNs that satisfy the property, which amounts to synthesizing a set of linear
    constraints on the weights.

  text: 'Most phenotypes are determined by molecular systems composed of specifically
    interacting molecules. However, unlike for individual components, little is known
    about the distributions of mutational effects of molecular systems as a whole.
    We ask how the distribution of mutational effects of a transcriptional regulatory
    system differs from the distributions of its components, by first independently,
    and then simultaneously, mutating a transcription factor and the associated promoter
    it represses. We find that the system distribution exhibits increased phenotypic
    variation compared to individual component distributions - an effect arising from
    intermolecular epistasis between the transcription factor and its DNA-binding
    site. In large part, this epistasis can be qualitatively attributed to the structure
    of the transcriptional regulatory system and could therefore be a common feature
    in prokaryotes. Counter-intuitively, intermolecular epistasis can alleviate the
    constraints of individual components, thereby increasing phenotypic variation
    that selection could act on and facilitating adaptive evolution. '

  text: Small RNAs (sRNAs) regulate genes in plants and animals. Here, we show that
    population-wide differences in color patterns in snapdragon flowers are caused
    by an inverted duplication that generates sRNAs. The complexity and size of the
    transcripts indicate that the duplication represents an intermediate on the pathway
    to microRNA evolution. The sRNAs repress a pigment biosynthesis gene, creating
    a yellow highlight at the site of pollinator entry. The inverted duplication exhibits
    steep clines in allele frequency in a natural hybrid zone, showing that the allele
    is under selection. Thus, regulatory interactions of evolutionarily recent sRNAs
    can be acted upon by selection and contribute to the evolution of phenotypic diversity.

  text: 'Moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera) usually have a pair of differentiated
    WZ sex chromosomes. However, in most lineages outside of the division Ditrysia,
    as well as in the sister order Trichoptera, females lack a W chromosome. The W
    is therefore thought to have been acquired secondarily. Here we compare the genomes
    of three Lepidoptera species (one Dytrisia and two non-Dytrisia) to test three
    models accounting for the origin of the W: (1) a Z-autosome fusion; (2) a sex
    chromosome turnover; and (3) a non-canonical mechanism (e.g., through the recruitment
    of a B chromosome). We show that the gene content of the Z is highly conserved
    across Lepidoptera (rejecting a sex chromosome turnover) and that very few genes
    moved onto the Z in the common ancestor of the Ditrysia (arguing against a Z-autosome
    fusion). Our comparative genomics analysis therefore supports the secondary acquisition
    of the Lepidoptera W by a non-canonical mechanism, and it confirms the extreme
    stability of well-differentiated sex chromosomes.'

  text: 'Our focus here is on the infinitesimal model. In this model, one or several
    quantitative traits are described as the sum of a genetic and a non-genetic component,
    the first being distributed within families as a normal random variable centred
    at the average of the parental genetic components, and with a variance independent
    of the parental traits. Thus, the variance that segregates within families is
    not perturbed by selection, and can be predicted from the variance components.
    This does not necessarily imply that the trait distribution across the whole population
    should be Gaussian, and indeed selection or population structure may have a substantial
    effect on the overall trait distribution. One of our main aims is to identify
    some general conditions on the allelic effects for the infinitesimal model to
    be accurate. We first review the long history of the infinitesimal model in quantitative
    genetics. Then we formulate the model at the phenotypic level in terms of individual
    trait values and relationships between individuals, but including different evolutionary
    processes: genetic drift, recombination, selection, mutation, population structure,
    …. We give a range of examples of its application to evolutionary questions related
    to stabilising selection, assortative mating, effective population size and response
    to selection, habitat preference and speciation. We provide a mathematical justification
    of the model as the limit as the number M of underlying loci tends to infinity
    of a model with Mendelian inheritance, mutation and environmental noise, when
    the genetic component of the trait is purely additive. We also show how the model
    generalises to include epistatic effects. We prove in particular that, within
    each family, the genetic components of the individual trait values in the current
    generation are indeed normally distributed with a variance independent of ancestral
    traits, up to an error of order 1∕M. Simulations suggest that in some cases the
    convergence may be as fast as 1∕M.'
