Genomic signatures of selection and putative adaptive introgression during the African expansion of the house mouse

This study analyzes genomic signatures of selection and introgression in house mice during their African expansion, finding that selection on native alleles drove adaptation, while introgression from M. spretus contributed to a smaller subset of loci.

The dynamics of barrier loci recruitment along a continuum of divergence in the context of gene flow

The paper identifies barrier loci across a divergence continuum in pea aphids, showing their clustering in low-recombination regions and enrichment for genes related to host specialization.

Role of aridity in shaping adaptive genomic divergence and population connectivity in a Southern African rodent

This study uses genomic data from a Southern African rodent to show how aridity influences genetic divergence and population connectivity, with genes related to water conservation and neurotransmission identified.
