Recent technological advances in the field of genomics offer conservation managers and
practitioners new tools to explore for conservation applications. Many of these tools are well …

Few invasive birds are as globally successful as the Common or European Starling (Sturnus
vulgaris). Native to the Palearctic, the starling has been intentionally introduced to North and …

Biological invasions drive environmental change, potentially threatening native biodiversity,
human health, and global economies. Population genomics is an increasingly popular tool …

Runs of homozygosity (ROH) occur when offspring inherit haplotypes that are identical by
descent from each parent. Length distributions of ROH are informative about population …

Invasive species are increasingly threatening ecosystems and agriculture by rapidly
expanding their range and adapting to environmental and human‐imposed selective …

Abstract Background The harlequin ladybird Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae),
native to Asia, has been introduced to other major continents where it has caused serious …

Following invasion, insects can become adapted to conditions experienced in their invasive
range, but there are few studies on the speed of adaptation and its genomic basis. Here, we …

The conservation of biodiversity from the genetic to the community levels is fundamental for
the continual provision of ecosystem services (ES), the benefits that ecosystems provide to …

Adaptive evolution following colonization can affect the impact of invasive species. The fall
webworm (FWW) invaded China 40 years ago through a single introduction event involving …

Humans have built ports on all the coasts of the world, allowing people to travel, exploit the
sea, and develop trade. The proliferation of these artificial habitats and the associated …
