Peter R. Grant Quotes & Sayings (Page 2)

“Species can be recognized by their morphological characteristics and songs.”

“Thus mating of females was strictly along the lines of paternal song.”

“Evidence of epistasis from hybridization studies is more scarce.”

“Exchange of breeding individuals between two populations tends to homogenize their gene pools.”

“Genes that underlie the capacity to receive, use and transmit information are the evolving properties.”

“The divergence of songs in the new population away from those in the progenitor population would only be prevented if these processes were balanced by repeated immigration and subsequent breeding: song flow.”

“The independent role of morphology in mate choice is revealed by the rare instances where the usual association between song and morphology is disrupted.”
