The paper presents genomic evidence of early radiation stages in Galapagos prickly pear cacti, highlighting geographic structure and candidate loci associated with adaptation.

This study examines the demographic effects of urbanization on white clover populations globally, finding increased gene flow and no reduction in genetic diversity in urban areas.

This study shows urbanization reduces the negative impact of invasive vampire flies on Darwin's finches by altering diet and immune responses.

This study uses ancient and modern mitogenomes to reveal the evolutionary history of the Galapagos Rail, showing its origin in the American black rail clade and low genetic diversity due to habitat loss.

This study examines how urbanization affects interactions between Darwin's finches and Tribulus cistoides on Galapagos Islands, finding higher seed removal in urban areas and altered selection pressures on plant morphology.

This study examines how urbanization affects reproductive success in Darwin's finches, finding higher reproductive output in urban areas but increased nestling mortality due to anthropogenic debris.
