This study reveals repeated introgressive hybridization and population expansions in African giant shrews, identifying genomic processes underlying incipient speciation.

This study analyzes alpha satellite DNA evolution in Cercopithecini primates, finding that younger families expand at centromeres while older ones shift to pericentromeres and face extinction.

The paper uses ancient DNA analysis to confirm the identity and geographic origin of the holotype of Ctenomys brasiliensis, resolving a century-old debate.

The paper introduces a graphical model method for inferring population relationships from DNA sequences and validates it on simulated data.
