Many species have undergone dramatic population size declines over the past centuries.
Although stochastic genetic processes during and after such declines are thought to elevate …

Although genetic diversity has been recognized as a key component of biodiversity since
the first Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 1993, it has rarely been included in …

… Our study provides the coup de grâce to the notion that farming spread into and across
Europe via the dissemination of ideas but without, or with only a limited, migration of people. …

Temporal genomic data hold great potential for studying evolutionary processes such as
speciation. However, sampling across speciation events would, in many cases, require …

We sequenced Early Neolithic genomes from the Zagros region of Iran (eastern Fertile
Crescent), where some of the earliest evidence for farming is found, and identify a previously …

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 …

Small populations are often exposed to high inbreeding and mutational load that can increase
the risk of extinction. The Sumatran rhinoceros was widespread in Southeast Asia, but is …

In this study, we compare the genetic ancestry of individuals from two as yet genetically
unstudied cultural traditions in Estonia in the context of available modern and ancient datasets: …
