African bush pigs exhibit porous species boundaries and appeared in Madagascar concurrently with human arrival

R. F. Balboa, L. D. Bertola, A. Bruniche-Olsen, M. S. Rasmussen, X. Liu, G. Besnard, J. Salmona, C. G. Santander, S. He, D. Zinner, M. Pedrono, V. Muwanika, C. Masembe, M. Schubert, J. Kuja, , R. Heller

This study analyzes whole genomes of African bushpigs and Malagasy bushpigs, revealing recent divergence and gene flow, challenging species boundaries and linking their arrival in Madagascar to human migration.

Conserving genetic diversity during climate change:Niche marginality and discrepant monitoring capacity in Europe

P. B. Pearman, O. Broennimann, T. Albayrak, P. C. Alves, L. D. Bertola, A. Biedrzycka, E. Buzan, V. Cubric-Curik, A. Fedorca, J. A. Godoy, C. Hvilsom, P. Klinga, M. K. Konopinski, A. Kopatz, L. Laikre, , M. Bruford

The paper assesses genetic monitoring capacity in Europe and finds it does not align with areas of high climate niche marginality, highlighting the need for expanded monitoring in southeastern Europe.
