Recombination is a central biological process with implications for many areas in the life
sciences. Yet we are only beginning to appreciate variation in the recombination rate along …

Forests are not only the most predominant of the Earth's terrestrial ecosystems, but are also
the core supply for essential products for human use. However, global climate change and …

Low‐coverage whole genome sequencing (lcWGS) has emerged as a powerful and cost‐
effective approach for population genomic studies in both model and nonmodel species …

Coffea arabica, an allotetraploid hybrid of Coffea eugenioides and Coffea canephora, is the
source of approximately 60% of coffee products worldwide, and its cultivated accessions …

A fundamental goal in evolutionary biology is to understand the genetic architecture of
adaptive traits. Using whole-genome data of 3955 of Darwin's finches on the Galápagos …

The canonical model of sex-chromosome evolution predicts that, as recombination is
suppressed along sex chromosomes, gametologs will progressively differentiate, eventually …

Broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) is the most water-efficient cereal and one of the
earliest domesticated plants. Here we report its high-quality, chromosome-scale genome …

In the formation of species, adaptation by natural selection generates distinct combinations
of traits that function well together. The maintenance of adaptive trait combinations in the …

Supergenes govern multi-trait-balanced polymorphisms in a wide range of systems;
however, our understanding of their origins and evolution remains incomplete. The …

Inferences about past processes of adaptation and speciation require a gene-scale and
genome-wide understanding of the evolutionary history of diverging taxa. In this study, we …
