Human activities are changing the natural world at an accelerating pace, and as a consequence exerting novel and often strong selection pressures on living organisms. For species with traits conferring huge inherent evolutionary potential, ...
A Flexible Method for Genomics-Based Quantitative Genetics in Wild Study Systems-A Case Study on a House Sparrow Meta-Population [0.03%]
Janne C H Aspheim,Kenneth Aase,Geir H Bolstad et al.
Janne C H Aspheim et al.
As larger genomic data sets become available for wild study populations, the need for flexible and efficient methods to estimate and predict quantitative genetic parameters, such as the adaptive potential and measures for genetic change, in...

Urbanisation is a pervasive global phenomenon that exerts strong influence on biodiversity and ecosystems. Many species can thrive in urban landscapes by capitalising on generalist traits and environmental resilience; however, this does not...
Evolution of Ivermectin Resistance in the Nematode Model Caenorhabditis elegans: Critical Influence of Population Size and Altered Emodepside Efficacy [0.03%]
Jacqueline Hellinga,Barbora Trubenova,Jessica Wagner et al.
Jacqueline Hellinga et al.
The emergence and spread of anthelmintic resistance represent a major challenge for treating parasitic nematodes, threatening mass-drug administration control programs in humans and zoonotic hosts. Currently, experimental evidence to unders...

Habitat destruction and climate change are two primary drivers of global biodiversity loss. Many contemporary ecological preserves and preserve networks are designed to protect species and the ecological and evolutionary processes that will...
The LAST Mile: Evaluating Genetic Biocontrol as a Supplemental Tool for Eradicating Invasive Rodents on Islands [0.03%]
最后的里程：评估基因生物控制作为岛屿入侵啮齿动物绝灭的辅助工具的效果
Aysegul Birand,Bruce A Hay,Matthew Combs et al.
Aysegul Birand et al.
Invasive rodents cause severe ecosystem degradation on islands and can be challenging to eradicate. Current best-practices rely on the application of toxic oral baits and have led to successful eradications and remarkable recoveries of nati...
