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.

Persistent gene flow suggests an absence of reproductive isolation in an African antelope speciation model

X. Wang, C.-E. T. Pedersen, G. Athanasiadis, G. Garcia-Erill, K. Hanghoj, L. D. Bertola, M. S. Rasmussen, M. Schubert, X. Liu, Z. Li, L. Lin, E. Jorsboe, C. Nursyifa, S. Liu, V. Muwanika, , R. Heller

The paper sequenced waterbuck genomes to study speciation, finding historical gene flow across a Rift Valley barrier and no reproductive isolation.
