DOI: 10.1016/j.molp.2020.01.005
Abstract: Speciation has long been regarded as an irreversible process once the reproductive barriers had been established. However, unlike in natural populations, artificial selection might either accelerate or prevent speciation processes in domesticated species. Asian cultivated… read more here.

Steering ecological-evolutionary dynamics to improve artificial selection of microbial communities.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Nature communications"
DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-26647-4
Abstract: Microbial communities often perform important functions that depend on inter-species interactions. To improve community function via artificial selection, one can repeatedly grow many communities to allow mutations to arise, and "reproduce" the highest-functioning communities by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-00592-0
Abstract: The clonal propagation of crops offers several advantages to growers, such as skipping the juvenile phase, faster growth, and reduced mortality. However, it is not known if the wild ancestors of most clonal crops have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msx194
Abstract: The ability of a population to adapt to changes in their living conditions, whether in nature or captivity, often depends on polymorphisms in multiple genes across the genome. In-depth studies of such polygenic adaptations are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.12807
Abstract: Australia has one of the oldest modern wheat breeding programs worldwide although the crop was first introduced to the country in 1788. Breeders selected wheat with high adaptation to different Australian climates, while ensuring satisfactory… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.12920
Abstract: Strong and ongoing artificial selection in domestic animals has resulted in amazing phenotypic responses that benefit humans, but often at a cost to an animal's health, and problems related to inbreeding depression, including a higher… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/joa.12772
Abstract: The relationships between the different component parts of organisms, such as the sharing of common development or function, produce a coordinated variation between the different traits. This morphological integration contributes to drive or constrain morphological… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.671686
Abstract: Body size is an important trait in companion animals. Recently, a primitive Japanese dog breed, the Shiba Inu, has experienced artificial selection for smaller body size, resulting in the “Mame Shiba Inu” breed. To identify… read more here.
