Abstract The 2019 United Nations Global assessment report on biodiversity and ecosystem
services estimated that approximately 1 million species are at risk of extinction. This …

Although single‐nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) were initially thought to make‐up the
majority of selectable variation (Morin, Luikart, & Wayne, 2004; Sachidanandam et al …

Copy number variants (CNVs) are a major component of genotypic and phenotypic variation
in genomes. To date, our knowledge of genotypic variation and evolution has largely been …

Societal Impact Statement Syntheses clearly show that global warming is affecting
ecosystems and biodiversity around the world. New methods and measures are needed to …

Gymnosperms diverged from their sister plant clade of flowering plants 300 Mya.
Morphological and functional divergence between the two major seed plant clades involved …

Recent studies have highlighted the significant role of copy number variants (CNVs) in
phenotypic diversity, environmental adaptation and species divergence across eukaryotes …

Genome assembly can be challenging for species that are characterized by high amounts of
polymorphism, heterozygosity, and large effective population sizes. High levels of …

Copy number variations (CNVs) are a major source of structural variation in mammalian
genomes. Here, we characterized the genome-wide CNV in 2059 sheep from 67 …

Poplar (Populus) is a genus of woody plants of great economic value. Due to the growing
economic importance of poplar, there is a need to ensure its stable growth by increasing its …

Gene dosage variation and the associated changes in gene expression influence a wide
variety of traits, ranging from cancer in humans to yield in plants. It is also expected to affect …
