Alleles that introgress between species can influence the evolutionary and ecological fate of
species exposed to novel environments. Hybrid offspring of different species are often unfit …

Hybridization is an evolutionary phenomenon that has fascinated biologists for centuries.
Prior to the advent of whole-genome sequencing, it was clear that hybridization had played …

Patterson's D, also known as the ABBA‐BABA statistic, and related statistics such as the f4‐
ratio, are commonly used to assess evidence of gene flow between populations or closely …

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 …

BlastKOALA and GhostKOALA are automatic annotation servers for genome and
metagenome sequences, which perform KO (KEGG Orthology) assignments to characterize …

In the past decade, advances in genome sequencing have allowed researchers to uncover
the history of hybridization in diverse groups of species, including our own. Although the …

Understanding why some evolutionary lineages generate exceptionally high species
diversity is an important goal in evolutionary biology. Haplochromine cichlid fishes of Africa's …

We used 20 de novo genome assemblies to probe the speciation history and architecture of
gene flow in rapidly radiating Heliconius butterflies. Our tests to distinguish incomplete …

Speciation, the evolution of reproductive isolation among populations, is continuous,
complex, and involves multiple, interacting barriers. Until it is complete, the effects of this …

Abstract “Conservation genomics” encompasses the idea that genome-scale data will
improve the capacity of resource managers to protect species. Although genetic approaches …
