Multiple Genetic Lineages and Inter‐Island Gene Flow in Nemadactylus monodactylus at Tristan da Cunha: Implications for Phylogeography and Taxonomy

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
We studied the genetics of the Five‐finger fish across the remote islands of Tristan da Cunha using mitochondrial DNA and microsatellites. mtDNA revealed four genetic clades, three of which were polyphyletic with congeners, and one potentially unique to Tristan da Cunha, suggesting current species classifications may be inaccurate.

Genomic inbreeding coefficient predicts extinction risk

open access: yes
Genomic inbreeding coefficient, defined as the proportion of genome homozygous (FROH), is now widely used to gauge levels of inbreeding in wild populations. However, the sources of variance in FROH are poorly understood, and the question whether FROH can

Understanding natal emigration in group‐living carnivores

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 10, Page 2076-2087, October 2026.
Dispersal is a key ecological and evolutionary process, yet drivers of variation in emigration under human‐modified conditions remain understudied. Using a novel genetic approach applied to harvested grey wolves in Idaho, USA, we found that prey availability and population density shape natal emigration patterns in a cooperative breeder.

A Genomic Tool to Tackle Cryptic Diversity Demonstrates the Potential for Off‐Target Use of GT‐Seq Panels

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive understanding of life history is vital to successful species conservation and management. When different life history stages are accompanied by considerable morphological or cryptic variation, such as the egg and larval phases exhibited by most fishes, genomic tools are essential for identifying species so that early‐life ...

Importance of using genetic data to inform conservation captive breeding: A tale of two species of threatened macaws (Ara spp.)

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2026.
Unmanaged captive populations of threatened species often harbor hidden genetic risks, so using genomic tools, we audited a large private macaw collection and uncovered extensive hybridization and high inbreeding. Our findings provide an actionable framework for how routine genetic screening can be used to mitigate these risks, manage captive breeding ...
