The RADsequencing data associated with our publication in Biology Letters (Rutledge et al. 2015. RADsequencing and genomic simulations resolve hybrid origins in North American Canis) (http://rsbl.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/11/7/20150303) is now more easily accessible through the Dryad Repository at: http://datadryad.org/resource/doi:10.5061/dryad.pr318

Our comment on hybrid origins of eastern and red wolves was published today in Science Advances. Read it here.
About MeI am passionate about science and education. I have been a science educator and wildlife researcher for over 15 years. I am currently an Adjunct Professor in the Environmental & Life Sciences Graduate Department at Trent University, and my current focus is on building online biology curriculum that is interactive, mobile, and widely accessible.

My research has focussed on how hybridization and environmental factors, including human influences, alter evolutionary trajectories and lead to contemporary evolution of species. Much of my work has been on Canis species and in particular Eastern Wolves (Canis lycaon), a threatened species in Ontario and Canada. In 2012, I founded the Eastern Wolf Survey, a research project focussed on non-invasively tracking Eastern Wolves in southern Ontario's Provincial Parks. |
