Gene Expression Shifts in Emperor Penguin Adaptation to the Extreme Antarctic Environment
ABSTRACT Gene expression can accelerate ecological divergence by rapidly tweaking the response of an organism to novel environments, with more divergent environments exerting stronger selection and supposedly, requiring faster adaptive responses. Organisms adapted to extreme environments provide ideal systems to test this hypothesis, particularly when ...

Structural Variants Contribute to Phenotypic Variation in Maize
ABSTRACT Comprehensively identifying the loci shaping trait variation has been challenging, in part because standard approaches often miss many types of genetic variants. Structural variants (SVs), especially transposable elements (TEs), are likely to affect phenotypic variation but we lack methods that can detect polymorphic SVs and TEs using short ...

Admixture Increases Genetic Diversity and Adaptive Potential in Australasian Killer Whales
ABSTRACT Admixture is the exchange of genetic variation between differentiated demes, resulting in ancestry within a population coalescing in multiple ancestral source populations. Low‐latitude killer whales (Orcinus orca) populations typically have higher genetic diversity than those in more densely populated, high productivity and high‐latitude ...
