Topographic complexity shapes adaptive genomic variation in co-occurring plant species

The paper examines how environmental pressures shape genomic variation in co-occurring plant species, finding both shared and unique genotype-environment associations across species.

Genomic prediction of disease resistance provides a path to marker assisted restoration in a wetland foundation tree species

The paper uses genomic data to predict disease resistance in Melaleuca quinquenervia, enabling marker-assisted restoration efforts against myrtle rust.

Building evolutionary resilience: a framework for managing safe haven populations

The paper introduces a framework for managing safe haven populations to enhance evolutionary resilience and persistence of threatened species through genetic and demographic simulations.

Escaping inbreeding: the demographic path to genetic recovery

The paper analyzes koala genomes to show that population growth can increase effective population size, helping populations escape inbreeding risks despite past bottlenecks.

Regarding the F-word: the effects of data Filtering on inferred genotype-environment associations

This study examines how filtering genotype-by-sequencing data affects genotype-environment association results and provides recommendations for optimal filtering practices.

Spatial, climate, and ploidy factors drive genomic diversity and resilience in the widespread grass Themeda triandra

This study examines how spatial, environmental, and ploidy factors influence genomic diversity and resilience in the grass species Themeda triandra.
