Joint Congresses take place every six years and bring together four of the world’s largest academic societies in the field of evolutionary biology: the European Society for Evolutionary Biology, the American Society of Naturalists, the Society for the Study of Evolution and the Society of Systematic Biologists. The first joint congress was in Ottawa, Canada in 2012. The current (i.e. second) is held in Montpellier, France, on August 19-22 2018. The venue of the meeting will be The Corum, a convention center ideally located in the heart of Montpellier historic neighborhood, easily accessed by public transportation and at very short walking distance from restaurants, cafes and hotels. A welcome reception will take place on Saturday August 18 (7:00 pm to 8:30 pm) at the Lycée Joffre, next to the Corum. The official program, beginning on Sunday August 19, largely follows the traditional organization of an ESEB meeting: there will be more than 800 contributed talks, organized in 78 thematic symposia, running as 13 parallel sessions, showcasing the most recent advances in evolutionary biology, with a very large diversity of topics and fields from paleontology to molecular evolution. More than 1200 posters will be presented in two poster sessions (Sunday 19 and Tuesday 21 August) associated with each of the symposia. Plenary talks will be given by the presidents of SSE, SSB and ASN, by recipients of the ESEB Presidents’ Award and of SSE Stephen Jay Gould Outreach Prize. The conference dinner will take place on the evening of Wednesday, August 22nd, at the Abbaye de Valmagne, a spectacular venue, one-hour drive away from Montpellier. Special care was given to gender balance, equal opportunity and environmental impact. Childcare is provided on the venue during the whole conference. Various travel stipends and grants were provided by the organizing societies. With about 2700 attendees and almost 60 countries represented, this will be the largest and most international Evolutionary Biology meeting ever organized so far, showing the dynamism of our field of research. For many, it will be a unique opportunity to meet with colleagues who they rarely meet, exchange about science and different ways of doing it, learn about exciting and different work, discover different cultures and different people. As evolutionary biologists, we all know that diversity is the fuel for adaptive evolution. We hope that this meeting will celebrate the diversity in our community and the general benefits of exchange across borders. We wish all attendees to come back home with a different and wider perspective, as scientists and as human beings. Precisely for these reasons, Isabelle Olivieri was a strong proponent of the joint Evolution congresses and devoted a lot of effort while she was President of ESEB to see them launched. We therefore dedicate this meeting to her memory. We wish you a productive and pleasant congress, Ophélie Ronce and Yannis Michalakis On behalf of the organizing committee Acknowledgements We thank all our partners and sponsors, and in particular ESEB, which funded very generously this conference, the numerous people who participated to the organization and scientific committees, symposia organizers who achieved the crazy work of selecting abstracts for this oversized conference, Society officers of ASN, SSE and SSB for their collaboration in adapting to a different European-style conference format, and in particular Howard Rundle for his precious help throughout the years of preparation for this event. 4 II Joint Congress on Evolutionary Biology • Montpellier 2018, France • August 18-22, 2018 IN MEMORIAM Isabelle Olivieri Isabelle Olivieri passed away in December 2016, before she turned 60. Isabelle played a key role in the development of Evolutionary Biology in Montpellier, where she was the first professor of population genetics hired at the University. Beyond Montpellier, she was an important figure of the European community of evolutionary biologists, a very free mind, with strong opinions and a fierce ability to defend them. She liked Science because she liked the people she met in Science. In her own work and in her life, she enjoyed building links and connections between people and between ideas. She was particularly interested in working at the border of ecology and evolution, especially by interactions between demography and evolution. She is very well known for her work on the evolution of dispersal and for her pioneering studies about life history traits in metapopulations. She is also well known for her promotion of evolutionary conservation biology, also combining the study of population dynamics and genetics. She trained a large number of young evolutionary biologists in Europe, with a very large impact on the field and vivid memories for all who came to cross her path. She had always a strong taste for international interactions and was very much attached to ESEB, for which she served as vice-president in 1995, as president in 2007-2009 and in various ESEB committees. She also contributed to European Science through her service for ERC where she chaired a panel for several years, and was recruited by EMBO for her openness of mind and ability to discuss across disciplines and still advocate for our discipline. She was also a strong proponent of better connections between different evolutionary societies inside and outside Europe, was vice-president of SSE in 2007 and really pushed for the organization of joint meetings when she was president of ESEB. She initially proposed that the Second Joint Congress would be organized in Montpellier. Unfortunately, she became ill just before the very first Joint Congress in Ottawa and could not attend the first, nor organize the second. In recognition of her services to the Society, ESEB had decided, before she died, to make her a Distinguished Fellow, the highest honor the Society confers. She received this honor last year posthumously. We would have very much liked her to attend the present conference and see her very extended family of evolutionary biologists gathered in Montpellier. We hope that her wonderful sense of welcome will still inspire this event.

  • Evolution of Amphimixis and Recombination Under Fluctuating Selection in One and Many Traits
    Genet. Res., Camb. (1996), 68, pp. 165-173 With 7 text-figures Copyright © 1996 Cambridge University Press 165 Evolution of amphimixis and recombination under fluctuating selection in one and many traits ALEXEY S. KONDRASHOV* AND LEV YU. YAMPOLSKY Section of Ecology and Systematics, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA (Received 6 June 1995 and in revised form 14 May 1996) Summary Both stabilizing and directional selection acting on one or many quantitative traits usually reduce the genetic variance in a polymorphic population. Amphimixis and recombination restore the variance, pushing it closer to its value under linkage equilibrium. They thus increase the response of the population to fluctuating selection and decrease the genetic load when the mean phenotype is far from optimum. Amphimixis can have a short-term advantage over apomixis if selection fluctuates frequently and widely, so that every genotype often has a low fitness. Such selection causes high genetic variance due to frequent allele substitutions, and a high load even with amphimixis. Recombination in an amphimictic population is maintained only if selection is usually strong and effectively directional. A modifier allele causing free recombination can have a significant advantage only if fluctuations of selection are such that the load is substantial. With smaller fluctuations, an intermediate recombination rate can be established, either due to fixation of alleles that cause such a rate or due to the stable coexistence of alleles causing high and low recombination. If many traits simultaneously are under fluctuating selection, amphimixis and recombination can be maintained when selection associated with individual traits is weaker and the changes in their mean values are smaller than with a single trait.

  • Negative Frequency-Dependent Selection Is Frequently Confounding
    PERSPECTIVE published: 21 February 2018 doi: 10.3389/fevo.2018.00010 Negative Frequency-Dependent Selection Is Frequently Confounding Dustin Brisson* Biology Department, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, United States Persistent genetic variation within populations presents an evolutionary problem, as natural selection and genetic drift tend to erode genetic diversity. Models of balancing selection were developed to account for the maintenance of genetic variation observed in natural populations. Negative frequency-dependent selection is a powerful type of balancing selection that maintains many natural polymorphisms, but it is also commonly misinterpreted. This review aims to clarify the processes underlying negative frequency-dependent selection, describe classes of polymorphisms that can and cannot result from these processes, and discuss the empirical data needed to accurately identify processes that generate or maintain diversity in nature. Finally, the importance of accurately describing the processes affecting genetic diversity within populations as it relates to research progress is considered.

Key,1 Silvia Ghirotto,2 Andrea Benazzo,2 Juan R. Meneu,1 Antje Weihmann,1 NISC Comparative Sequence Program,3 Genı´s Parra,1 Eric D. Green,3 and Aida M. Andre´s*,1 1Department of Evolutionary Genetics, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig, Germany 2Department of Life Sciences and Biotechnology, University of Ferrara, Ferrara, Italy 3National Human Genome Research Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD *Corresponding author: E-mail: cesare_fi[email protected]; [email protected]. Associate editor: Ryan Hernandez Abstract Balancing selection is an important evolutionary force that maintains genetic and phenotypic diversity in populations. Most studies in humans have focused on long-standing balancing selection, which persists over long periods of time and is generally shared across populations. But balanced polymorphisms can also promote fast adaptation, especially when the Downloaded from environment changes. To better understand the role of previously balanced alleles in novel adaptations, we analyzed in detail four loci as case examples of this mechanism. These loci show hallmark signatures of long-term balancing selection in African populations, but not in Eurasian populations. The disparity between populations is due to changes in allele frequencies, with intermediate frequency alleles in Africans (likely due to balancing selection) segregating instead at low- or high-derived allele frequency in Eurasia. We explicitly tested the support for different evolutionary models with an http://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/ approximate Bayesian computation approach and show that the patterns in PKDREJ, SDR39U1,andZNF473 are best explained by recent changes in selective pressure in certain populations.

  • DNA Polymorphism, Haplotype Structure and Balancing Selection in the Leavenworthia Pgic Locus
    Copyright 1999 by the Genetics Society of America DNA Polymorphism, Haplotype Structure and Balancing Selection in the Leavenworthia PgiC Locus Dmitry A. Filatov and Deborah Charlesworth Institute of Cell, Animal and Population Biology, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3JT, United Kingdom Manuscript received April 2, 1999 Accepted for publication July 6, 1999 ABSTRACT A study of DNA polymorphism and divergence was conducted for the cytosolic phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI:E.C.5.3.1.9) gene of ®ve species of the mustard genus Leavenworthia: Leavenworthia stylosa, L. alabam- ica, L. crassa, L. uni¯ora, and L. torulosa. Sequences of an internal 2.3-kb PgiC gene region spanning exons 6±16 were obtained from 14 L. stylosa plants from two natural populations and from one to several plants for each of the other species. The level of nucleotide polymorphism in L. stylosa PgiC gene was quite high (p50.051, u50.052). Although recombination is estimated to be high in this locus, extensive haplotype structure was observed for the entire 2.3-kb region. The L. stylosa sequences fall into at least two groups, distinguished by the presence of several indels and nucleotide substitutions, and one of the three charge change nucleotide replacements within the region sequenced correlates with the haplotypes. The differ- ences between the haplotypes are older than between the species, and the haplotypes are still segregating in at least two of ®ve species studied. There is no evidence of recent or ancient population subdivision that could maintain distinct haplotypes. The age of the haplotypes and the results of Kelly's ZnS and Wall's B and Q tests with recombination suggest that the haplotypes are maintained due to balancing selection at or near this locus.

Lemmon Section of Integrative Biology The University of Texas at Austin 1 University Station #C0930 Austin, TX 78712 USA Email: [email protected] Tel: 512-471-3760; Fax: 512-471-3878 2 ABSTRACT Recent empirical studies suggest that genes involved in speciation are often sex-linked. We derive a general analytic model of reinforcement to study the effects of sex linkage on reinforcement under three forms of selection against hybrids: one-locus, two-locus, and ecological incompatibilities. We show that the pattern of sex linkage can have a large effect on the amount of reinforcement due to hybrid incompatibility. Sex linkage of genes involved in postzygotic isolation generally increases the strength of reinforcement, but only if genes involved in prezygotic isolation are also sex-linked. We use exact simulations to test the accuracy of the approximation and find that qualitative predictions made assuming weak selection can hold when selection is strong. 3 Speciation is the evolution of prezygotic or postzygotic isolation. Postzygotic isolation is thought to evolve through the accumulation of genetic incompatibilities during allopatric separation. Prezygotic isolation can evolve through reinforcement, which is the evolution of increased prezygotic isolation as a result of selection against hybrids (Dobzhansky 1940; Blair 1955; Howard 1993).
