Efficient pedigree recording for fast population genetics simulation

bioRxiv, 2018
In this paper we describe how to efficiently record the entire genetic history of a population in forwards-time, individual-based population genetics simulations with arbitrary breeding models, population structure and demography.

Population genetics in compressible flows

, 2011
We study competition between two biological species advected by a compressible velocity field. Individuals are treated as discrete Lagrangian particles that reproduce or die in a density-dependent fashion.

Population genetics of translational robustness

, 2006
Recent work has shown that expression level is the main predictor of a gene’s evolutionary rate, and that more highly expressed genes evolve slower.

Molecular Population Genetics

Genetics, 2018
In the article by S. Casillas and A. Barbadilla (GENETICS 205: 1003–1035) entitled “Molecular Population Genetics,” on page 1010, the references provided in Table 1 were incomplete. For the measure/test vA, the reference to “Castellano et al.

Population genetics models of local ancestry

, 2012
Migrations have played an important role in shaping the genetic diversity of human populations. Understanding genomic data thus requires careful modeling of historical gene flow.

Little evidence of inbreeding depression for birth mass, survival and growth in Antarctic fur seal pups

Scientific Reports
Inbreeding depression, the loss of offspring fitness due to consanguineous mating, is generally detrimental for individual performance and population viability.

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,
