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

Best use of scientific knowledge is required to maintain the fundamental role of seafood in
human nutrition. While it is acknowledged that genomic-based methods allow the collection of …

Although single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) were initially thought to make‐up the majority
of selectable variation (Morin, Luikart, & Wayne, 2004; Sachidanandam et al., 2001), it is …

Genetic colour polymorphisms are widespread across animals and often subjected to complex
selection regimes. Traditionally, colour morphs were used as simple visual markers to …

How natural diversity is maintained is an evolutionary puzzle. Genetic variation can be eroded
by drift and directional selection but some polymorphisms persist for long time periods, …

Structural genomic variants (SVs) are ubiquitous and play a major role in adaptation and
speciation. Yet, comparative and population genomics have focused predominantly on gene …

Epigenetic inheritance is another piece of the puzzle of nongenetic inheritance, although
the prevalence, sources, persistence, and phenotypic consequences of heritable epigenetic …

Unraveling the genetic basis of organismal form and function remains one of the major goals
of evolutionary biology. Theory has long supported a model of polygenic evolution in which …

Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) present an unparalleled insect model to integrate
evolutionary genomics with ecology for the study of insect evolution. Key features of Odonata …

Across a species range, multiple sources of environmental heterogeneity, at both small and
large scales, create complex landscapes of selection, which may challenge adaptation, …
