Origins and Maintenance of Diversity in a Vertebrate Parthenogen
(2017-01-02)
Clonal lineages are expected to experience a decline in fitness over time due to their inability to decouple deleterious and beneficial alleles. Individually, however, asexual populations pass twice as much of their DNA ...
Rattlesnake genomics illustrate patterns of speciation, adaptation, and links between genome structure and function
(2019-08-13)
Understanding the origins of species and biological novelties that allow them to thrive in diverse environments is a key goal in evolutionary biology, and new genomic methods are constantly enabling research using non-model ...
Using snake genomes to illuminate the patterns and mechanisms of rapid adaptation
(2018-08-01)
One of the most important and interesting goals in evolutionary biology is to understand the mechanisms generating biodiversity and adaptive novelty. Ever-evolving genomic techniques have served as a catalyst for this work, ...
