The paper identifies a novel vesiculovirus, Mediterranean bat virus (MBV), circulating in bats across the Mediterranean region using a new RT-qPCR method and genomic analysis.

The paper shows that pericentromeric regions in canid genomes maintain gene flow barriers, while domestic dogs preserve ancestral alleles lost in wolves.

The paper introduces diem, a method to detect genomic barriers to gene flow by polarizing markers across barriers and calculating genome-wide admixture proportions.
