Comparison of the performance of sporophytes derived from narrow and wide genetic crosses between strains of the cultivated kelp Saccharina latissima

This study compares local and wide genetic crosses in kelp to assess breeding effectiveness without introducing foreign genetic material.

Inversions support both parallel and location-specific adaptations in snail ecotypes

The paper compares genetic differentiation and inversion patterns in snail ecotypes across two hybrid zones, finding shared and site-specific genomic architectures for adaptation to wave exposure.

Ancient DNA from shells reveals delayed genomic erosion and rapid immune adaptation in the critically endangered black abalone

The paper uses ancient DNA from shells to analyze genetic stability and immune adaptation in black abalone post-bottleneck, finding delayed genomic erosion and rapid immune-related selection.

Genome divergence between European anchovy ecotypes fuelled by structural variants originating from cross-hemispheric admixture

Genealogical analysis of replicate flower colour hybrid zones in Antirrhinum

The paper analyzes replicate flower color hybrid zones in Antirrhinum to identify loci associated with gene flow barriers using haplotagging, FST scans, and genealogical methods.

Population divergence manifested by genomic rearrangements in a keystone Arctic species with high gene flow

The paper identifies genomic rearrangements in polar cod, showing their role in population divergence and potential local adaptation despite high gene flow.

Chromosome-scale genome assembly and gene annotation of the hydrothermal vent annelid Alvinella pompejana yield insight into animal evolution in extreme environments

The paper presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly of Alvinella pompejana and analyzes its gene content to understand adaptations to extreme environments.
