Structural variants such as chromosomal rearrangements and gene duplications can play an important role in the adaptation and diversification of organisms. Here, we used comparative genomics to study the functional implications of structura...
Last Glacial and Holocene dynamics override post-colonial disturbance in shaping genetic diversity of a heavily exploited palaeoendemic conifer, Lagarostrobos franklinii [0.03%]
末次冰盛世和全新世以来的种群动态而非殖民后的干扰塑造了近代遭受严重采伐的特有冷杉拉格罗斯特罗波斯 franklinii 的遗传多样性

The mealybug Pseudococcus viburni is a plant-feeding insect with a non-Mendelian genetic system known as paternal genome elimination (PGE). In PGE, males eliminate their paternally inherited chromosomes during meiosis, transmitting only the...
Genetic structure and historical gene flow in Araucaria angustifolia populations across two Brazilian regions [0.03%]

Araucaria angustifolia (araucaria) is a conifer tree of high ecological and social values in the Brazilian subtropical region. However, the species is threatened with extinction. We examined the genetic variability and gene flow between pop...
Investigating the effects of chimerism on the inference of selection: quantifying genomic targets of purifying, positive, and balancing selection in common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) [0.03%]
嵌合体对选择推断的影响研究:量化三趾树猴(Callithrix jacchus)纯化、正向及平衡选择的基因组目标

Inbreeding depression is the reduction in fitness of inbred individuals relative to their more outbred counterparts. Parasitism also reduces fitness and is a route by which inbreeding depression may operate, yet the complete pathway from in...

Genetic diversity is an important driver affecting the health of wildlife populations. In cooperatively breeding species, human impacts and breeder turnover can affect genetic diversity in groups. We generally do not have strong inferences ...
Facultative polyandry under heat stress and the evolutionary potential for climate-driven shifts in mating systems [0.03%]
高温压力下的兼性多雄性配偶制及其在气候变化驱动的交配系统转变中的进化潜力
