The paper examines allele-specific expression of MHC class IIB in cichlid fish and finds that rare alleles show high expression variability, suggesting a role in parasite-mediated selection.

The paper examines the genomic effects of genetic rescue in a sand lizard population, finding increased diversity and reduced genetic load after admixture.

The paper compares morphological and gene expression convergence and divergence between two cichlid radiations, finding similar pharyngeal jaw morphotypes but distinct body shape patterns and genetic differences.
