Biodiversity is under threat worldwide. Over the past decade, the field of population
genomics has developed across nonmodel organisms, and the results of this research have …

Hybridization is an evolutionary phenomenon that has fascinated biologists for centuries.
Prior to the advent of whole-genome sequencing, it was clear that hybridization had played …

Under climate change, species unable to track their niche via range shifts are largely reliant
on genetic variation to adapt and persist. Genomic vulnerability predictions are used to …

Abstract “Conservation genomics” encompasses the idea that genome-scale data will
improve the capacity of resource managers to protect species. Although genetic approaches …

Recent studies have emphasized the role of the western honey bee, Apis mellifera, as a
managed agricultural species worldwide, but also as a potential threat to endangered wild …

Human impact is noticeable around the globe, indicating that a new era might have begun:
the Anthropocene. Continuing human activities, including land‐use changes, introduction of …

The recent extensive loss of biodiversity raises the question of whether organisms will adapt
in time to survive the current era of rapid environmental change, and whether today's …

The habitats of most species have been fragmented by human actions, isolating small
populations that consequently develop genetic problems. Millions of small, isolated …

Continuing advances in whole genome scale approaches integrated with other
'omic'technologies promise to revolutionise understanding about the relevance of genetic …

A dramatic increase in the hybridization between historically allopatric species has been
induced by human activities. However, the notion of hybridization seems to lack consistency …
