The genomic revolution has fundamentally changed how we survey biodiversity on earth.
High‐throughput sequencing (“ HTS ”) platforms now enable the rapid sequencing of DNA …

Recent years have seen a debate over various methods that could objectively prioritize
conservation value below the species level. Most prominent among these has been the …

Elucidating how natural selection promotes local adaptation in interaction with migration,
genetic drift and mutation is a central aim of evolutionary biology. While several conceptual and …

Throughout its natural range, the brown trout Salmo trutta L. exhibits a complex pattern of
morphological and life‐history variation. This has led to considerable taxonomic confusion, …

Background DNA barcoding aims to provide an efficient method for species-level identifications
using an array of species specific molecular tags derived from the 5′ region of the …

What is the extent and scale of local adaptation (LA)? How quickly does LA arise? And what
is its underlying molecular basis? Our review and meta-analysis on salmonid fishes …

According to the theory of mate choice based on heterozygosity, mates should choose each
other in order to increase the heterozygosity of their offspring. In this study, we tested the ‘…

Chromosomal inversions have long fascinated evolutionary biologists due to their suppression
of recombination, which can protect co-adapted alleles. Emerging research documents …

Freshwater ecosystems are being heavily exploited and degraded by human activities all
over the world, including in North America, where fishes and fisheries are strongly affected. …
