CODABEILLES improves DNA barcode coverage for French wild bees, reaching 94% of species through collaborative efforts, enhancing species identification and pollinator monitoring.

The paper investigates early speciation processes in Ophrys orchids by analyzing phenotypic and genomic divergence in six populations, identifying a genomic island linked to floral odor variation and candidate genes involved in color and odor pathways.

The paper uses population genomic approaches to analyze genetic differentiation among three orchid taxa in overlapping ranges, finding distinct genetic clusters but weak differentiation in Iberian populations.
