The relationship between genomic variation and genetic load: insights from small island populations

The paper examines the relationship between genomic variation and genetic load in small island populations, finding that low genetic diversity does not always correlate with high genetic load.

Genomics of speciation in a great speciator (Aves: Zosterops) reveals the roles of both natural and sexual selection

The paper identifies barrier loci in Zosterops species by analyzing genomic differentiation across divergence stages, showing Z chromosome involvement and roles of natural and sexual selection in reproductive isolation.

Coexisting with humans: genomic and behavioural consequences in a small and isolated bear population

The paper examines genomic diversity and adaptation in Apennine brown bears, finding unique genetic signatures linked to reduced aggressiveness, possibly due to human-induced selection.
