Urbanization is associated with reduced genetic diversity in marine fish populations

The paper assesses the impact of urbanization on marine fish genetic diversity using population genetic datasets, finding reduced diversity in areas with higher human population density.

Climate change, age acceleration, and the erosion of fitness in polar bears

This study links climate change to accelerated epigenetic aging in polar bears, reduced fitness, and near-zero adaptive potential.

Migration distance and mating system are not associated with genetic diversity and differentiation among bats (Chiroptera)

The paper examines the relationship between migration and mating strategies and genetic diversity in bats, finding no significant correlations.

Microhabitat use of northern and southern flying squirrels in a recent hybrid zone

The paper examines microhabitat use of northern and southern flying squirrels in a hybrid zone, finding no evidence of habitat divergence or reinforcement.

SexFindR: A computational workflow to identify young and old sex chromosomes

SexFindR identifies sex chromosomes across species, showing sea lamprey lack somatic sex-linked sequences.

Population demography maintains biogeographic boundaries

The paper shows that populations near biogeographic transition zones have lower genetic diversity and effective population sizes, suggesting reduced adaptive capacity and maintaining biogeographic boundaries.

Determinants of genetic diversity and species richness of North American amphibians

The paper examines how resource availability and niche heterogeneity influence genetic diversity and species richness in North American amphibians, finding they predict species richness but not genetic diversity.

No evidence of Toxoplasma Gondii infection in urban and rural squirrels

Inconsistent effects of urbanization on amphibian genetic diversity

The paper analyzes genetic diversity in amphibians across urban and rural habitats and finds no consistent effects of urbanization on genetic diversity.

Evidence for an extreme founding effect in a highly successful invasive species

The paper estimates the founding population size and genetic diversity of Barbary ground squirrels on Fuerteventura, finding a genetic bottleneck despite their invasion success.

Genetic and species-level biodiversity patterns are linked by demography and ecological opportunity

The paper links genetic diversity and species richness patterns using a framework that incorporates ecological and demographic factors, showing shared spatial structure and explaining 78% of genetic diversity and 74% of species richness variation.

Socioeconomic variation across multiple cities predicts avian life-history strategies

The paper uses urban area data to show that socioeconomic factors predict avian life-history traits across cities.

Continent-wide effects of urbanization on bird and mammal genetic diversity

The paper analyzes genetic data from North American birds and mammals to assess how urbanization affects genetic diversity and effective population size, finding significant negative impacts on mammals but not birds.

Serum biochemistry suggests grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have poorer physiological condition in urban settings

The paper examines serum biochemistry in urban and rural grey squirrels, finding higher blood glucose and lower electrolytes in urban squirrels, suggesting greater environmental stress.
