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 …

All life forms across the globe are experiencing drastic changes in environmental conditions
as a result of global climate change. These environmental changes are happening rapidly …

Chromosomal inversions are ubiquitous in genomes and often coordinate complex
phenotypes, such as the covariation of behavior and morphology in many birds, fishes …

Speciation is the process by which barriers to gene flow evolve between populations.
Although we now know that speciation is largely driven by natural selection, knowledge of …

Across many species where inversions have been implicated in local adaptation, genomes
often evolve to contain multiple, large inversions that arise early in divergence. Why this …

Genome re-arrangements such as chromosomal inversions are often involved in adaptation.
As such, they experience natural selection, which can erode genetic variation. Thus …

Inversions are structural mutations that reverse the sequence of a chromosome segment
and reduce the effective rate of recombination in the heterozygous state. They play a major …

Chromosomal inversions have long been recognized for their role in local adaptation. By
suppressing recombination in heterozygous individuals, they can maintain coadapted gene …

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

The phylogeny and speciation of subterranean zokors in China are unclear, as previous
studies on morphology and limited molecular markers have generated conflicting results …
