The paper investigates whether Borrelia afzelii OspE coevolves with bank vole CFH, finding positive selection on OspE but no direct genetic association.

This study evolves bulb mite populations under male- and female-biased sex ratios to examine genomic and phenotypic responses to sexual selection and conflict, finding no significant effect on population fitness or genetic diversity.

This study shows that extra-pair paternity (EPP) can enhance population resilience under environmental stress in socially monogamous systems when females mate with higher-quality males, but this benefit diminishes in small populations.

The paper examines how purging and admixture affect genetic load in an invasive guppy population, finding that strongly and weakly deleterious mutations respond differently to these processes.

This study shows that mating systems influence a population's ability to adapt to environmental change and affect extinction risk.

The study investigates diversifying selection on the missing-self regulator CFH in bank voles, finding evidence of positive selection in its Borrelia-interacting domain and coevolution with pathogens.

This study identifies genomic mechanisms underlying adaptation to constant and fluctuating environments in the cereal pest Aceria tosichella, revealing a polygenic basis involving stress response and detoxification pathways.

The paper analyzes transcriptomes of European bison to identify immune responses to gastrointestinal nematode infection, finding no significant gene expression changes with parasite burden but enriched immune-related pathways.

The paper examines sex-specific recombination patterns in bulb mites with holocentric chromosomes, finding similar recombination landscapes in males and females with higher rates at chromosome ends and female-specific higher overall rates.

This study shows genetic rescue sustains fitness benefits over 20 generations despite introduced genetic load and thermal stress in a male-dimorphic mite.

This study shows that sexual selection does not modulate population sensitivity to heatwaves but may increase resilience to prolonged bottlenecks in the soil mite Sancassania berlesei.
