Leveraging Knowledge of Traditional Italian Maize Landrace Diversity to Identify Signals of Local Adaptation

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Climate change is the greatest challenge to modern agriculture. It significantly impacts agricultural systems through an increased frequency and intensity of extreme environmental events. Maize, a vital crop for global food security, is particularly vulnerable to these changes, highlighting the urgent need to develop resilient varieties.

Development of Metagenomic Methods for Health Monitoring of Endangered Species Using Fecal Samples

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Metagenomic analysis of fecal samples is emerging as a powerful tool for monitoring endangered species, particularly in assessing the burden of pathogens and parasites that can threaten population viability. However, accurate identification in non‐model species remains challenging due to the frequent absence of host‐specific pathogen reference

Genetic Diversity, Population Structure and Differentiation of Farmed and Wild African Catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in Nigeria

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) is a commercially important species, for both fisheries and aquaculture, and is now the most commonly farmed fish in sub‐Saharan Africa. However, knowledge about the genetic diversity and population structure of natural and farmed populations, which is crucial for effective conservation and sustainable ...

Limited Dispersal Drives Strong Genetic Structure in the Commercially Harvested Gastropod Buccinum undatum in the Western North Atlantic

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Direct‐developing species lack the pelagic larval phase which facilitates connectivity in most marine species. Consequently, they tend to exhibit spatially restricted dispersal and increased population structure. When subject to harvesting, this biological constraint increases their vulnerability to localized depletion, as local aggregations ...

Glacial Legacies—How Refugial Dynamics Shaped the Evolution of the Alpine Endemic Bush‐Cricket Anonconotus italoaustriacus

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Mountain ranges like the European Alps harbour large endemic biodiversity shaped by Pleistocene climatic oscillations. The flightless bush‐cricket Anonconotus italoaustriacus, endemic to the Southern Limestone Alps (SLA) and the eastern Central Alps (CA), provides an ideal model to study the evolutionary and refugial dynamics of endemic alpine

Patterns of Interploidy Admixture in Polyploid Complexes: Insights From Thymus Sect. Mastichina (Lamiaceae)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 3, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding gene flow between ploidy levels in polyploid complexes is essential for species delimitation and conservation. This study explores evolutionary dynamics in the polyploid complex Thymus sect. Mastichina (Lamiaceae), comprising three taxa: T. mastichina subsp. mastichina, T. mastichina subsp.
