Genome-scale sequence data have invigorated the study of hybridization and introgression,
particularly in animals. However, outside of a few notable cases, we lack systematic tests for …

CRISPR gene drive has recently been proposed as a promising technology for population
management, including in conservation genetics. The technique would consist in releasing …

Gene drive based on the CRISPR/Cas-9 gene editing system is a powerful technology that
promotes the inheritance of the gene drive tool itself via sexual reproduction and can …

Vertebrate pigmentation patterns are amongst the best characterised model systems for
studying the genetic basis of adaptive evolution. The wealth of available data on the genetic …

… We thank the Courtier-Orgogozo team for providing a stimulating environment and
technical support. The research leading to this paper has received funding from the European …

Gephebase is a manually-curated database compiling our accumulated knowledge of the
genes and mutations that underlie natural, domesticated and experimental phenotypic …

The Huanan market harbored many of the early COVID-19 cases in 2019 and is a key
element to understanding the origin of the pandemic. Whether the initial animal-to-human …

Animal terminalia represent some of the most diverse and rapidly evolving structures in the
animal kingdom, and for this reason have been a mainstay in the taxonomic description of …

The probability D that a given clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based
gene drive element contaminates another, nontarget species can be estimated …

What types of genetic changes underlie evolution? Secreted signaling molecules (syn. ligands)
can induce cells to switch states and thus largely contribute to the emergence of complex …
