As population genomic datasets grow in size, researchers are faced with the daunting task
of making sense of a flood of information. To keep pace with this explosion of data …

The analysis of polymorphism data is becoming increasingly important as a complementary
tool to classical genetic analyses. Nevertheless, despite plunging sequencing costs …

High-throughput sequencing technologies are revolutionizing the life sciences. The past 12
months have seen a burst of genome sequences from non-model organisms, in each case …

Landscape genetics is now ten years old. It has stimulated research into the effect of
landscapes on evolutionary processes. This review describes the main topics that have …

Inferring demographic history is an important task in population genetics. Many existing
inference methods are based on predefined simplified population models, which are more …

Comparing allele frequencies among populations that differ in environment has long been a
tool for detecting loci involved in local adaptation. However, such analyses are complicated …

Molecular markers produced by next‐generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are
revolutionizing genetic research. However, the costs of analysing large numbers of …

Genetic variation is the fuel of evolution, with standing genetic variation especially important
for short-term evolution and local adaptation. To date, studies of spatiotemporal patterns of …

Next generation sequencing of pooled samples is an effective approach for studies of
variability and differentiation in populations. In this paper we provide a comprehensive set of …

Background Over several decades, a wide range of natural and artificial selection events in
response to subtropical environments, intensive pasture and intensive feedlot systems have …
