Evolutionary history of the brown rat: out of southern East Asia and selection

Lin Zeng, Chen Ming, Yan Li, Ling-Yan Su, Yan-Hua Su, Newton O. Otecko, Ambroise Dalecky, Stephen Donnellan, Ken Aplin, Xiao-Hui Liu, Ying Song, Zhi-Bin Zhang, Ali Esmailizadeh, Saeed S. Sohrabi, Hojjat Asadollahpour Nanaei, , Ya-Ping Zhang

This study sequenced whole genomes of 118 brown rats to trace their origin, migration routes, and domestication, finding they originated in southern East Asia and showing evidence of selection in immune and domestication-related genes.

A continuum of specialists and generalists in empirical communities

Timothée Poisot, Sonia Kéfi, Serge Morand, Michal Stanko, Pablo Marquet, Michael Hochberg

The paper analyzes ecological networks to show a continuum of specialists and generalists, finding that diversity peaks in networks with intermediate connectance due to physical constraints.
