Genetic diversity is the amount of variation observed between DNA sequences from distinct
individuals of a given species. This pivotal concept of population genetics has implications …

In animals, the population genomic literature is dominated by two taxa, namely mammals
and drosophilids, in which fully sequenced, well-annotated genomes have been available for …

Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) technologies offer the opportunity for population genomic
study of non‐model organisms sampled in the wild. The transcriptome is a convenient and …

… We created a between-species contamination matrix M in which cell m ij contained zero
in the absence of evidence for contamination of species j by species i, one in case of the …

… ) (4 m guanidinium thiocyanate; 50 mm sodium citrate; 1 m Tris, pH 8.0), which was obtained
from a slightly modified protocol of Triant & Whitehead 2009. After phase separation using …

Comparative population genetics in asexual vs. sexual species offers the opportunity to
investigate the impact of asexuality on genome evolution. Here, we analyse coding sequence …

The evolution of reproductive division of labour and social life in social insects has lead to
the emergence of several life‐history traits and adaptations typical of larger organisms: social …

Mammalian and avian genomes are characterized by a substantial spatial heterogeneity of
GC-content, which is often interpreted as reflecting the effect of local GC-biased gene …

Use of SNP s has been favoured due to their abundance in plant and animal genomes,
accompanied by the falling cost and rising throughput capacity for detection and genotyping. …

… We, thus, used a minimal stack depth of five (-m parameter), up to two mismatches within a
locus at the sample level (-M parameter), up to two mismatches when merging loci across the …
