DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-78555-0
Abstract: Novel open reading frames (nORFs) with coding potential may arise from noncoding DNA. Not much is known about their emergence, functional role, fixation in a population or contribution to adaptive radiation. Cichlids fishes exhibit extensive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-92385-8
Abstract: Lake Malawi cichlid fishes exhibit extensive divergence in form and function built from a relatively small number of genetic changes. We compared the genomes of rock- and sand-dwelling species and asked which genetic variants differed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2208496119
Abstract: Significance Wild relatives of domesticated plants provide a rich resource for crop improvement and a valuable comparative perspective for understanding genomic, physiological, and agricultural traits. Here, we provide high-quality reference genomes of one early domesticated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/aobpla/plac038
Abstract: Abstract Despite the importance of life-history characteristics in determining a species’ success, we still lack basic information about some fundamental life-history elements found across the life cycle of introduced plants. Our study assesses rapid evolutionary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biolinnean/blae038
Abstract: Divergent natural selection caused by spatial environmental variation can lead to local adaptation and evolutionary divergence between populations, even those within close proximity to one another. This, however, is only one possibility among other outcomes,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jisesa/ieac079
Abstract: Abstract The PRXamide neuropeptides have been described in both protostome and deuterostome species, including all major groups of the Panarthropoda. Best studied are the insect PRXamides consisting of three genes: pk/pban, capa, and eth, each… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsbl.2024.0166
Abstract: Freshwater populations of typically marine species present unique opportunities to investigate biodiversity, evolutionary divergence, and the adaptive potential and niche width of species. A few pinniped species have populations that reside solely in freshwater. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1261/rna.079070.121
Abstract: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are rapidly evolving and thus typically poorly conserved in their sequences. How these sequence differences affect the characteristics and potential functions of lncRNAs with shared synteny remains unclear. Here we show… read more here.
