Pitfalls and windfalls of detecting demographic declines using population genetics in long-lived species

The paper shows that comparing genomes of young and old individuals can help detect recent demographic declines in long-lived species, especially when declines are severe.

A spatial approach to jointly estimate Wright's neighborhood size and long-term effective population size

The paper introduces a statistical model to jointly estimate Wright's neighborhood size and long-term effective population size using individual-level genetic and geographic data.

Modeling the Evolution of Rates of Continuous Trait Evolution

This paper introduces a new Bayesian model, evorates, to analyze trait evolution rates across clades, showing it can detect gradual and stochastic rate changes in cetacean body size evolution.

Genetic isolation by distance underlies color pattern divergence in red-eyed treefrogs (Agalychnis callidryas)

The paper investigates color pattern divergence in red-eyed treefrogs, finding genetic isolation by distance rather than hybridization drives phenotypic variation.
