This study shows that hybridization in fission yeast reactivates transposable elements, with full-length elements increasing with genomic admixture.

This study shows adaptive divergence occurs most strongly with no or maximal gene flow in fission yeast, highlighting interactions between gene flow, genetic variation, and genetic correlations.

This study uses genome-wide sequencing to resolve the phylogeny of eared seals, finding incomplete lineage sorting explains phylogenetic discordance and supports a recent trans-hemispheric dispersal and rapid diversification.

This study uses genome-wide runs of homozygosity in killer whale genomes to infer demographic histories and patterns of inbreeding across different populations.

This study uses a mathematical model to show how assortative mate choice and epistasis affect hybrid zone dynamics in crows, leading to complex movement of the hybrid zone over time.

This paper improves the genome assembly of Drosophila suzukii using long-read sequencing, resulting in a higher quality and more contiguous genome compared to previous short-read assemblies.

The paper investigates the association between a sex chromosome inversion and mitochondrial DNA copy number in zebra finch sperm, finding a positive correlation with midpiece length and potential effects on ATP production and swimming speed.

This study shows that admixture between two ancestral lineages of fission yeast drives global biodiversity, with phenotypic variation and reproductive compatibility linked to ancestry arrangements.

The paper uses host shotgun sequencing data to characterize the skin microbiome of killer whales and shows how social and geographic factors influence microbial community composition.

The paper quantifies individual mRNA transcripts in melanocytes to reveal gene regulation differences in feather pigment synthesis between hooded crows and black crows.

The paper examines genetic diversity in pinnipeds, showing that recent population declines are linked to historical commercial exploitation, ecology, and life history traits, with no direct correlation to IUCN status.

The paper compares genetic variation across three avian clades to assess the role of linked selection in shaping genomic diversity and differentiation.
