Reticulate evolution and rapid development of reproductive barriers upon secondary contact pose challenges for species delineation in a forest fungus

This study investigates reproductive barriers in Trichaptum abietinum using population genomics and in vitro crosses, finding pre-mating barriers correlated with genomic divergence and hybrid fitness linked to increasing divergence.

Genomic consequences of range expansion and colonisation in the reed warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus)

This study examines the genetic consequences of northward and southward range expansions in reed warblers using RAD-seq, finding little genetic structure and local adaptation to climate variables.

Introgression between highly divergent fungal sister species

This study investigates introgression between two divergent fungal species using whole genome sequencing, ABBA-BABA statistics, and demographic modeling, revealing small regions of introgression and a potential ghost population.

Extensive transgressive gene expression in testis but not ovary in the homoploid hybrid Italian sparrow

The paper examines gene expression in the Italian sparrow, finding transgressive expression in testis but not ovary, suggesting regulatory changes in hybridization.

Predictors of genomic differentiation within a hybrid taxon

The paper investigates predictors of genomic differentiation in hybrid sparrow populations, finding that recombination rate and selection influence differentiation patterns.

Intraspecific genomic variation and local adaptation in a young hybrid species

This study examines how a young hybrid species, the Italian sparrow, has evolved and adapted to its environment through genomic analysis of population divergence and adaptation.

The genomic landscape at a late stage of stickleback speciation: high genomic divergence interspersed by small localized regions of introgression

This paper examines genomic divergence in a late-stage stickleback species pair, showing high genome-wide differentiation persists despite ongoing introgression in small recombination hotspots.

Variation and constraints in hybrid genome formation

The paper examines hybrid genome formation in Italian sparrows, finding that while novel hybrid combinations arise, certain genomic regions are consistently inherited from parent species, likely due to incompatibility loci.
