A Population Genomics Lexicon [PDF]
, 2020 AbstractPopulation genomics is a growing field stemming from soon a 100 years of developments in population genetics. Here, we summarize the main concepts and terminology underlying both theoretical and empirical statistical population genomics studies.

Population Genomics in the Great Apes [PDF]
, 2020 AbstractThe great apes play an important role as model organisms. They are our closest living relatives, allowing us to identify the genetic basis of phenotypic traits that we think of as characteristically human. However, the most significant asset of great apes as model organisms is that they share with humans most of their genetic makeup. This means

Population genomics of parallel adaptation [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2020 Parallel evolution is one of the striking patterns in nature. The presence of repeated evolution of the same phenotypes, suites of traits, and adaptations suggests a strong role for natural selection in shaping biological diversity. The reasoning is straightforward: each instance of repeated evolution makes it less likely that these features evolved ...

Ancestral Population Genomics [PDF]
, 2012 The full genomes of several closely related species are now available, opening an emerging field of investigation borrowing both from population genetics and phylogenetics. Providing we can properly model sequence evolution within populations undergoing speciation events, this resource enables us to estimate key population genetics parameters, such as ...

The diagnostic odyssey: insights from parents of children living with an undiagnosed condition
Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022 Background People living with rare disease often have protracted journeys towards diagnosis. In the last decade, programs have arisen around the world that are dedicated to ending this ‘diagnostic odyssey’, including the Undiagnosed Diseases Program ...

The population genomics of plant adaptation [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2010 SummaryThere has been an enormous increase in the amount of data on DNA sequence polymorphism available for many organisms in the last decade. New sequencing technologies provide great potential for investigating natural selection in plants using population genomic approaches.

Population Genomics of Human Adaptation [PDF]
Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, 2013 Recent advances in genotyping technologies have facilitated genome-wide scans for natural selection. Detecting targets of natural selection sheds light on human evolution and it can help identify genetic variants that influence normal human phenotypic variation as well as disease susceptibility.

Population Genomics of Paramecium Species [PDF]
Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2017 Population-genomic analyses are essential to understanding factors shaping genomic variation and lineage-specific sequence constraints. The dearth of such analyses for unicellular eukaryotes prompted us to assess genomic variation in Paramecium, one of the most well-studied ciliate genera.

Population Genomics for Insect Conservation
Annual Review of Animal Biosciences, 2023 Insects constitute vital components of ecosystems. There is alarming evidence for global declines in insect species diversity, abundance, and biomass caused by anthropogenic drivers such as habitat degradation or loss, agricultural practices, climate change, and environmental pollution.
