This study identifies TE variation in wild house mice from temperate and tropical environments and finds some TE insertions associated with gene expression and positive selection.

This study investigates how maternal effects and genetic variation jointly shape body size divergence in house mice, finding that maternal environment significantly influences early-life weight and is linked to nutrient signaling pathways.

This study identifies QTL driving skeletal divergence in temperate and tropical house mice, revealing both small-effect and pleiotropic loci involved in adaptive evolution.

This paper identifies genomic signals of environmental adaptation in house mice across North and South America, finding shared candidate genes despite independent evolution.

The paper introduces 11 wild-derived inbred mouse strains with expanded genomic and phenotypic diversity, enhancing the scope of biomedical research.

The paper reports high repeat content in sparrow genomes, showing how long-read sequencing improves transposable element discovery and reveals dynamic TE expansion patterns in birds.

This study identifies tissue-specific and cis-regulatory changes as key drivers of parallel gene expression evolution in cold-adapted house mice.

The paper introduces Arctos, a community-driven collection management system for biodiversity and cultural data, emphasizing its role in enabling research, education, and sustainable data governance.
