This study shows that a recent lifestyle shift to agriculture in Bornean Punan people rapidly alters their transcriptome and DNA methylation, resembling agriculturalists more than their foraging relatives.

The paper presents a gut microbiome dataset from Indonesia, revealing novel species and subspecies linked to rural-to-urban lifestyle transitions and showing that community-level diet differences drive microbiome divergence.

This study identifies polygenic adaptation in Dianthus sylvestris to soil conditions during postglacial range expansion, showing pleiotropy and soil heterogeneity influence genetic variation.

The paper examines adaptive genetic variation in Lactuca serriola along a precipitation gradient, identifying candidate genes under selection and predicting adaptive shifts in response to climate change.
