DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8810
Abstract: Abstract Genetic identification methods have become increasingly important for species that are difficult to identify in the field. A case in point is Pelophylax water frogs. While their morphological determination is highly complex, they include… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-17111-w
Abstract: Hybridization can drive speciation. We examine the hypothesis that Castanea henryi var. omeiensis is an evolutionary lineage that originated from hybridization between two near-sympatric diploid taxa, C. henryi var . henryi and C. mollissima .… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-47305-5
Abstract: Vocal rhythm plays a fundamental role in sexual selection and species recognition in birds, but little is known of its genetic basis due to the confounding effect of vocal learning in model systems. Uncovering its… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msac184
Abstract: Evolutionary innovations generate phenotypic and species diversity. Elucidating the genomic processes underlying such innovations is central to understanding biodiversity. In this study, we addressed the genomic basis of evolutionary novelties in the Glassy-Winged Sharpshooter (Homalodisca… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/treephys/tpac115
Abstract: Climate change challenges the adaptive capacity of several forest tree species in the face of increasing drought and rising temperatures. Therefore, understanding the mechanistic connections between genetic diversity and drought resilience is highly valuable for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16724
Abstract: Recent ecotypic differentiation provides unique opportunities to investigate the genomic basis and architecture of local adaptation, while offering insights into how species form and persist. Sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) exhibit migratory and resident (“kokanee”) ecotypes,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mec.16839
Abstract: Sexually antagonistic selection, which favours different optima in males and females, is predicted to play an important role in the evolution of sex chromosomes. Body size is a sexually antagonistic trait in the shell‐brooding cichlid… read more here.
