Ecological Genomics of Speciation

Organizer: Hiroshi Kudoh

This symposium aims to highlight and tackle ecological issues in the processes and consequences of speciation by using the approach of ecological genomics. The field has attracted researchers with broad background and interests. Examples include reconstruction of past ecological interactions during speciation, elucidation of character and niche shifts during speciation, identification of genes that contribute to reproductive isolation, and recreation of ancestral character states.
