Genomic repeat landscape evolution across the teleost fish lineages

W. B. Reinar, O. K. Torresen, A. J. Nederbragt, M. Matschiner, S. Jentoft, K. S. Jakobsen

The paper analyzes repetitive DNA content across 100 teleost fish genomes, finding weak negative correlation between TE content and diversification rates, and independent evolutionary paths for STRs and TEs.

Genomic consequences of range expansion and colonisation in the reed warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus)

C. L. C. Saetre, K. Rönkä, M. Ravinet, S. Vitulano, M. Caldarella, P. Prochazka, B. Stokke, A. Cuevas, N. Bergman, R. Thorogood, K. S. Jakobsen, O. K. Torresen, F. Eroukhmanoff

This study examines the genetic consequences of northward and southward range expansions in reed warblers using RAD-seq, finding little genetic structure and local adaptation to climate variables.

Adaptive protein evolution through length variation in short tandem repeats

W. B. Reinar, A. Greulich, I. M. Sto, J. B. Knutsen, T. Reitan, O. K. Torresen, S. Jentoft, M. A. Butenko, K. S. Jakobsen

The paper shows that length variation in protein regions impacts function and is shaped by natural selection in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Supergenes origin and maintenance in Atlantic cod

M. Matschiner, J. M. I. Barth, O. K. Torresen, B. Star, H. T. Baalsrud, M. S. O. Brieuc, C. Pampoulie, I. Bradbury, K. S. Jakobsen, S. Jentoft

The paper investigates the origin and maintenance of four supergenes in Atlantic cod using whole-genome sequencing and long-read data, revealing chromosomal inversions and gene flux mechanisms.

Innovation in NLR and TLR sensing drives the MHC-II free Atlantic cod immune system.

X. Jin, B. Morro, O. K. Torresen, V. Moiche, M. H. Solbakken, K. S. Jakobsen, S. Jentoft, S. MacKenzie

This study identifies NLR and TLR25-based pathways in Atlantic cod's MHC-II free immune system, revealing alternative mechanisms for pathogen recognition and response.

Stable species boundaries despite ten million years of hybridization in tropical eels

J. M. I. Barth, C. Gubili, M. Matschiner, O. K. Torresen, S. Watanabe, B. Egger, Y.-S. Han, E. Feunteun, R. Sommaruga, R. Jehle, R. Schabetsberger

The paper shows that seven eel species have remained distinct despite extensive hybridization over 10 million years, due to cytonuclear incompatibilities and hybrid breakdown.
