The paper examines sympatry in sportive lemurs using genomic and morphological data, finding clinal variation rather than speciation, and reclassifies L. milanoii as a synonym of L. ankaranensis.

This paper presents the first whole-genome data for the giant forest hog, revealing its evolutionary relationship with warthogs and significant genetic differentiation between populations.

This study analyzes genomic diversity and admixture in zoo giraffes using whole genome sequencing, revealing high admixture and inbreeding in some individuals.

The paper uses chromosome-level genome assembly and historical museum collections to study waterbuck population structure and chromosome evolution, finding genomic differentiation and recombination patterns linked to Robertsonian fusions.

This study generates the first banteng reference genome and analyzes 78 resequenced samples to explore its domestication history and genetic structure.

The paper identifies LCORL and STC2 variants associated with increased body size and growth rate in cattle and other domesticated animals through genetic analysis and mouse models.

This study sequenced impala genomes to investigate evolutionary stasis, finding genetic structure and reduced natural selection in eastern populations compared to southern African ones.

ClockstaRX tests molecular clock hypotheses by analyzing phylogenomic data to identify rate variation patterns and influential loci.

This paper introduces apoh, a software tool to estimate admixture pedigrees of recent hybrids using interancestry heterozygosity patterns from SNP data, validated on human and animal datasets.

The paper identifies ruminant-specific conserved non-coding elements and develops a method to interpret their regulatory roles in rumen development using gene regulatory networks.

This study constructs a chicken pan-genome from 20 de novo assemblies, identifying novel genes predominantly in sub-telomeric regions that are undetectable by DNA sequencing but present in transcriptomes.

This study identifies introgression and selection events in goat domestication, linking them to immune and behavioral genes.
