Limited genomic signatures of population collapse in the critically endangered black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii)

B. Wooldridge, C. Orland, E. Enbody, M. Escalona, C. D. Mirchandani, R. Corbett-Detig, J. D. Kapp, N. Fletcher, K. Ammann, P. Raimondi, B. Shapiro

The paper analyzes the genomes of black abalone to assess genetic impacts of a population collapse and finds no spatial genetic structure, high genetic diversity, and low WS prevalence, suggesting translocation could aid recovery.

Delayed postglacial colonization of Betula in Iceland and the circum North Atlantic

D. J. Harning, S. Sacco, K. Anamthawat-Jonsson, N. Ardenghi, T. Thordarson, J. Raberg, J. Sepulveda, A. Geirsdottir, B. Shapiro, G. H. Miller

The paper uses sedimentary ancient DNA to show Betulaceae colonization in postglacial Iceland and the North Atlantic was delayed compared to Salicaceae, suggesting slow shrubification in response to warming.

Mountain lion genomes provide insights into genetic rescue of inbred populations

N. F. Saremi, M. A. Supple, A. Byrne, J. A. Cahill, L. L. Coutinho, L. Dalen, H. V. Figueiro, W. E. Johnson, H. J. Milne, S. J. O'Brien, B. O'Connell, D. P. Onorato, S. P. Riley, J. A. Sikich, D. R. Stahler, , B. Shapiro

The paper analyzes mountain lion genomes to study genetic rescue effects in inbred populations, finding that translocated individuals quickly lose genetic diversity due to local inbreeding.
