DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.16131
Abstract: Abstract Burgundy truffles are heterothallic ascomycetes that grow in symbiosis with trees. Despite their esteemed belowground fruitbodies, the species' complex lifecycle is still not fully understood. Here, we present the genetic patterns in three natural… read more here.

Perishing rich, expanding poor: Demography and population genetic patterns in two congeneric butterflies

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16784
Abstract: In human‐altered landscapes, specialist butterflies typically form spatially restricted populations, genetically differentiated due to dispersal restrictions. Generalists, in contrast, display minimum differentiation but high genetic diversity. While local‐level actions suffice to conserve specialists and landscape‐level… read more here.

Genetics and Plasticity Are Responsible for Ecogeographical Patterns in a Recent Invasion
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Genetics"
DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.824424
Abstract: Patterns of covariation between phenotype and environment are presumed to be reflective of local adaptation, and therefore translate to a meaningful influence on an individual’s overall fitness within that specific environment. However, these environmentally driven… read more here.
