Uncovering the genetic and evolutionary basis of local adaptation is a major focus of
evolutionary biology. The recent development of cost-effective methods for obtaining high …

We will soon have complete genome sequences from thousands of species, as well as from
many individuals within species. This coming explosion of information will transform our …

FST outlier tests are a potentially powerful way to detect genetic loci under spatially
divergent selection. Unfortunately, the extent to which these tests are robust to …

Warming and drought are reducing global crop production with a potential to substantially
worsen global malnutrition. As with the green revolution in the last century, plant genetics …

Identifying and monitoring locally adaptive genetic variation can have direct utility for
conserving species at risk, especially when management may include actions such as …

The Genome 10K Project was established in 2009 by a consortium of biologists and
genome scientists determined to facilitate the sequencing and analysis of the complete …

Detecting genetic variants under selection using FST outlier analysis (OA) and
environmental association analyses (EAAs) are popular approaches that provide insight into …

Deep coral reefs (that is, mesophotic coral ecosystems) can act as refuges against major
disturbances affecting shallow reefs. It has been proposed that, through the provision of …

Population census size (NC) and effective population sizes (N e) are two crucial parameters
that influence population viability, wildlife management decisions, and conservation …

We report on a whole‐genome draft sequence of rye (Secale cereale L.). Rye is a diploid
Triticeae species closely related to wheat and barley, and an important crop for food and …
