Curious about how pathogen responds to host resistance and climate change simultaneously? Elevated O3 increases Xanthomonas diversity and severity on resistant peppers, complicating climate-driven pathogen evolution predictions. w/ @nehapotnis.bsky.social 📷: Fig. 1 at doi.org/10.1111/eva.70069

Introgression between the critically endangered medium tree finch (Camarhynchus pauper) and the stable small tree finch (C. parvulus) may help retain adaptive alleles and genetic diversity, potentially aiding the conservation of the endangered species. doi.org/10.1111/eva.70066

Lu et al. used pool-seq to identify candidate genes linked to resistance to Dothistroma needle blight in lodgepole pine, jack pine, and hybrids. These results can aid forest management and resistance breeding. doi.org/10.1111/eva.70078 Photo: Robert L. James/U.S. Forest Service (CC BY)

Genomic monitoring shows re-introduced Chequered Skipper butterflies have retained diversity, but while the populations retain genetic diversity and low inbreeding, its limited founder size and high kinship levels pose future risks. doi.org/10.1111/eva.70074

The chequered skipper was reintroduced to England from Belgian source populations, following an intricate study to match habitat from native to introduced sites, which differed across Belgian populations. Still, two habitat matching populations seem incompatible! 1/ doi.org/10.1111/eva.... #consgen

The Kirtland's warbler, once endangered and now delisted, shows genetic evidence of recent inbreeding and an excess of deleterious variation. This highlights the importance of genomic monitoring to ensure long-term species recovery doi.org/10.1111/eva.70052

We used the Central Europan wolf monitoring database to calibrate molecular Ne estimating methods with Ne derived from life-history traits. This shows the number of wolf packs is a good approximation of the effective size.

Have you wondered how relative contributions of population history within native ranges (e.g., adaptation, range contraction, expansion) and founder effects following introductions shape genetic variation in invasive species? A freshwater fish case study doi.org/10.1111/eva....

Emerging genomic data can enhance conservation assessments by linking genetic diversity (GD) metrics to IUCN statuses. Key GD metrics, like Watterson's Theta and autozygosity, are predictive of Red List categories with @JongYoon_Jeon @AndrewDeWoody doi.org/10.1111/eva....
