Rapid decline of prenatal maternal effects with age is independent of postnatal environment in a precocial bird

O. Vedder, B. Tschirren, E. Postma, M. Moiron

The paper investigates how prenatal maternal effects on body mass decline with age in Japanese quail and finds this decline is independent of postnatal diet.

The long-lasting legacy of reproduction: lifetime reproductive success shapes expected genetic contributions of humans after ten generations

E. A. Young, E. Chesterton, V. Lummaa, E. Postma, H. L. Dugdale

This study uses genealogical data to show that lifetime reproductive success (LRS) predicts individual genetic contributions (IGC) better than lifespan or offspring survival, even over ten generations.

Low-coverage reduced representation sequencing reveals subtle within-island genetic structure in Aldabra giant tortoises

F. G. Cilingir, D. Hansen, N. Bunbury, E. Postma, R. Baxter, L. A. Turnbull, A. Ozgul, C. Grossen

The paper uses low-coverage ddRAD sequencing to analyze genetic structure in Aldabra giant tortoises, finding subtle within-island differentiation but no between-island differentiation.

Bigger Is Fitter? Quantitative Genetic Decomposition of Selection Reveals an Adaptive Evolutionary Decline of Body Mass in a Wild Rodent Population

T. Bonnet, P. Wandeler, G. Camenisch, E. Postma

The paper uses quantitative genetic analysis of long-term wild rodent data to show genetic decline in body mass despite phenotypic stasis, revealing an adaptive evolutionary response to environmental changes.
