Body Size, Dental Pathology, and Maternal Genetic Diversity of Ancient Horses in the Eastern Baltic Sea Region and Western Russia

International Journal of Osteoarchaeology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The early evolutionary history of modern domestic horses (Equus caballus/Equus ferus caballus), known as the DOM2 lineage, is well documented due to numerous archaeological and ancient DNA (aDNA) studies. Although many uncertainties remain in the domestication timeline, current evidence suggests that the domestication of modern horses began in

Decoding Genomic Landscapes of Introgression

Trends in Genetics
Genomic landscapes of introgression provide valuable information for how different evolutionary processes interact and leave signatures in genomes. The recent expansion of genomic datasets across diverse taxa, together with advances in methodological development, has created new opportunities to investigate the impact of introgression along individual ...

Conservation gap analysis for wild grapevines (Vitis L.) of the Americas

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wild grapevines (Vitis L.) native to the Americas are ecologically and culturally important plants that are also critical to the global cultivated grape industry as sources of traits for crop innovation, but many of these species are poorly documented and insufficiently conserved.

Marker-assisted introgression in backcross breeding programs [PDF]

, 1996
The efficiency of marker-assisted introgression in backcross populations derived from inbred lines was investigated by simulation. Background genotypes were simulated assuming that a genetic model of many genes of small effects in coupling phase explains

Towards reliable detection of introgression in the presence of among-species rate variation. [PDF]

The role of interspecific hybridization has recently seen increasing attention, especially in the context of diversification dynamics. Genomic research has now made it abundantly clear that both hybridization and introgression - the exchange of genetic ...

Polyphyly and gene flow between non-sibling Heliconius species [PDF]

, 2006
Background: The view that gene flow between related animal species is rare and evolutionarily unimportant largely antedates sensitive molecular techniques.

Multiple barriers maintain species boundaries in sympatric brood‐site deceptive Gastrodia orchids

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement Gastrodia orchids are inconspicuous forest plants that lack chlorophyll and obtain carbon from fungi. Their dull‐colored, ground‐level flowers are often hidden among leaf litter, yet they rely on small flies for pollination.

Long-distance dispersal suppresses introgression of local alleles during range expansions [PDF]

, 2017
During range expansions, even low levels of interbreeding can lead to massive introgression of local alleles into an invader's genome. Nonetheless, this pattern is not always observed in human populations.

Next-generation hybridization and introgression [PDF]

Heredity, 2011
Hybridization has a major role in evolution-from the introgression of important phenotypic traits between species, to the creation of new species through hybrid speciation. Molecular studies of hybridization aim to understand the class of hybrids and the frequency of introgression, detect the signature of ancient hybridization, and understand the ...
