Endemic but not eroded: Genomic distinctiveness and conservation genomics of the British swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon britannicus)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Through whole‐genome sequencing of P. machaon populations across Europe, we demonstrate that P. m. britannicus forms a genetically distinct and isolated lineage. Demographic modelling revealed weak historical gene flow from the continent. Although P. m.

Genetic Parameters and Sex‐Specific Architecture of Observed and Latent Fertility Phenotypes in a Closed Breeding Nucleus of an Arctic Salmonid

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Successful reproduction is a key factor for efficient breeding schemes and sustainable animal farming. Aquaculture breeding programs rely heavily on small fractions of selected breeders to yield large production stocks, given the high fecundity typically observed in these species. In Sweden, Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) is a salmonid with

Better Multi‐Breed Genomic Predictions for Tropical Bull Fertility Using a Breed‐Adjusted Genomic Relationship Matrix

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pressing requirement for agricultural systems to adopt climate change adaptation strategies specifically designed for tropical environments underscores the significance of implementing sustainable bull breeding practices in beef cattle operations.

Unravelling the Genetic Structure of Local and Mainstream Red‐Pied Cattle Breeds Using Genomics and Extended Pedigree Analysis

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the last decade, there has been a growing interest for local and endangered breeds as they are often seen as more resilient and healthier than mainstream breeds. They can also provide high added‐value products like meat or dairy products.

Evidence of Inbreeding in Hodgkin Lymphoma.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified several, mainly co-dominantly acting, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL).

Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

An integrative taxonomic characterization of extremophile fish Aphanius almiriensis (Teleostei: Cyprinodontiformes) in a hypersaline geothermal system (NW Anatolia)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The small killifish Aphanius almiriensis (Kottelat, Barbieri & Stoumboudi, 2007) inhabits from brackish springs to estuaries and coastal lagoons in the eastern Mediterranean basin. This study focused on the detailed characterization of Aphanius almiriensis from a hypersaline geothermal spring (Tuzla, Çanakkale, NW Anatolia), where extreme ...

Dissecting the genetic basis of climatic adaptation in wild relatives (Malus baccata) for climate‐resilient apple breeding

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This comprehensive map of genetic variation in wild apple (Malus baccata) and set of key genes associated with adaptation to temperature, precipitation, and soil properties establishes a foundation for breeding climate‐resilient apple cultivars and conserving the genetic resources of wild crop relatives.
