The global loss of biodiversity continues at an alarming rate. Genomic approaches have been suggested as a promising tool for conservation practice as scaling up to genome-wide data can improve...
Recombination is not the main cause of phenotypic differences between domestic and wild species
Morphological and physiological diversity observed in domestic species is strikingly greater than that seen in wild species. To explain this diversity, a hypothesis was proposed some decades ago...
New publication: Heterozygosity at a single locus explains a large proportion of fitness variation in great tits
