The paper challenges previous findings on historical human generation times by highlighting data noise, biases, and lack of validation in mutation-based inference methods.

This study clarifies the domestication history of Brassica rapa by analyzing genetic diversity and identifying wild and feral forms, suggesting turnips were the first domesticated type.

This study investigates the evolutionary history of octoploid strawberry species, revealing monophyletic sister lineages, gene flow, and population structure across the Western Hemisphere.

The paper develops a method to infer genome-wide correlations of mutation fitness effects between populations and finds that these correlations are inversely related to genetic differentiation.

The paper introduces stdpopsim, a community-maintained library for population genetic models, to standardize simulations and facilitate benchmarking of inference tools.
