Genetic load: genomic estimates and applications in non-model animals
Genetic variation, which is generated by mutation, recombination and gene flow, can reduce
the mean fitness of a population, both now and in the future. This ‘genetic load’ has been …

[PDF][PDF] Population genomics of the critically endangered kākāpō
The kākāpō is a flightless parrot endemic to New Zealand. Once common in the archipelago,
only 201 individuals remain today, most of them descending from an isolated island …

Positive and purifying selection in mitochondrial genomes of a bird with mitonuclear discordance
Diversifying selection on metabolic pathways can reduce intraspecific gene flow and promote
population divergence. An opportunity to explore this arises from mitonuclear discordance …

Multiple chromosomal rearrangements in a hybrid zone between Littorina saxatilis ecotypes
Both classical and recent studies suggest that chromosomal inversion polymorphisms are
important in adaptation and speciation. However, biases in discovery and reporting of …

Genomic architecture of parallel ecological divergence: Beyond a single environmental contrast
The study of parallel ecological divergence provides important clues to the operation of natural
selection. Parallel divergence often occurs in heterogeneous environments with different …

Genetic variation for adaptive traits is associated with polymorphic inversions in Littorina saxatilis
Chromosomal inversions have long been recognized for their role in local adaptation. By
suppressing recombination in heterozygous individuals, they can maintain coadapted gene …

Concordant divergence of mitogenomes and a mitonuclear gene cluster in bird lineages inhabiting different climates
Metabolic processes in eukaryotic cells depend on interactions between mitochondrial and
nuclear gene products (mitonuclear interactions). These interactions could have a direct role …
