Inference of natural selection from ancient DNA.
Evolutionary processes, including selection, can be indirectly inferred based on patterns of genomic variation among contemporary populations or species. However, this often requires unrealistic assumptions of ancestral...

Evolution of Lactase Persistence
The emergence of the capacity to digest milk in some populations represents a landmark in human evolution, linking genetic change with a component of niche construction, namely dairying. Alleles promoting continued activity of...

A genomic survey of transposable elements in the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta reveals selection on codon usage
Abstract: Background: Unicellular species make up the majority of eukaryotic diversity, however most studies on transposable elements (TEs) have centred on multicellular host species. Such studies may have therefore provided a...

Phenotypic and genotypic parallel evolution in parapatric ecotypes of Senecio.
The independent and repeated adaptation of populations to similar environments often results in the evolution of similar forms. This phenomenon creates a strong correlation between phenotype and environment and is referred to as...
