“…Urban barriers include buildings, freeways, and densely populated areas (such as city centers), with divergent selection pressures including varied noise and light pollution, diet, and disease and toxicant exposure between urban and rural environments (Brans, Stoks, & De Meester, 2018;Harris & Munshi-South, 2017;Isaksson, 2015;Ouyang et al, 2017;Sih, Ferrari, & Harris, 2011). The possibility for urban-rural gradients facilitating divergence has created a need for more research dedicated to assessing the evolutionary changes associated with urbanization (Alberti, 2015;Donihue & Lambert, 2015;Santangelo et al, 2018). As such, there has recently been a surge of studies examining the genetic effects of urbanization across diverse taxa, with each system providing unique insights into the processes shaping wildlife in the Anthropocene (Combs, Byers et al, 2018;Johnson, Prashad, Lavoignat, & Saini, 2018;Miles, Dyer, & Verrelli, 2018;Mueller, Kuhl et al, 2018;Theodorou et al, 2018).…”
