The combination of target capture sequencing (TCS) with low-coverage whole genome sequencing (lcWGS), an approach known as Hyb-Seq, has allowed the integration of natural history collections into the...

Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) has greatly expanded researchers' ability to study structural variants (SVs), that is, the variation in the presence, number, orientation or position of a DNA sequence.…

A robust understanding of taxonomy, distribution and intraspecific genetic diversity is crucial for the conservation of narrow endemic species, which …

Biodiversity resilience relies on genetic diversity, which sustains the evolutionary potential of organisms in dynamic ecosystems. Genomics is a powerful tool for accurately estimating genetic divers...

This study investigates the impact of environmental factors on genetic diversity in 14 European alpine plant species using AFLP data. Among 48 environmental factors, only surface curvature (pcurv) sh...

AbstractBackground and Aims. Natural hybridisation can lead to diversification and adaptive introgression, among other outcomes. However, the mechanistic u

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), a peer reviewed journal of the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - an authoritative source of high-impact, original research that broadly spans...

Abstract. The species studied in any evolutionary investigation generally constitute a small proportion of all the species currently existing or that have

We inferred the spatio–temporal colonization histories of seven vascular plant lineages (Acaena magellanica, Austroblechnum penna-marina, Azorella selago, Colobanthus kerguelensis, Notogrammitis cras....

Abstract. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in using morphology to establish the placement of species on phylogenetic trees derived from m

To mark International Women’s Day on 8 March, six award-winning female scientists highlight women who have inspired them by pushing innovative research and creating opportunities for others.
