Estimating the number of sexual events per generation in a facultatively sexual haploid population
In populations of facultatively sexual organisms, the proportion of sexually produced offspring contributed to each generation is a critical...

Ultraconserved enhancer function does not require perfect sequence conservation
Ultraconserved enhancer sequences show perfect conservation between human and rodent genomes, suggesting that their functions are highly sensitive to...

Evidence of local adaptation despite strong drift in a Neotropical patchily distributed bromeliad
Both genetic drift and divergent selection are predicted to be drivers of population differentiation across patchy habitats, but the extent to which...
