Identifying loci under positive selection in complex population histories

Alba Refoyo-Martínez, Rute R. da Fonseca, Katrín Halldórsdóttir, Einar Árnason, Thomas Mailund, and Fernando Racimo. Detailed modeling of a species' history is of prime importance for understanding how natural selection operates over time. Most methods designed to detect positive selection along sequenced genomes, however, use simplified representations of past histories as null models of genetic […]

Codweb: Whole-genome sequencing uncovers extensive reticulations fueling adaptation among Atlantic, Arctic, and Pacific gadids

Codweb: Whole-genome sequencing uncovers extensive reticulations fueling adaptation among Atlantic, Arctic, and Pacific gadids Þróun, innleiðing, kynblöndun og innlimun gena meðal þorskfiska. Ískóð og ísþorskur eru úthópur þorskfiska, en þorskfiskar eru undirstaða mikilvægustu fiskveiða í norður Atlantshafi og norður Kyrrahafi. Fyrir nokkrum milljónum ára nam forfaðir Atlantshafs þorskins nýtt búsvæði í Kyrrahafi og þróaðist í […]

Extensive structural variation between ecotypes of Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, revealed with linked-read sequencing and optical mapping

Katrín Halldórsdóttir and Einar Árnason. 2019.  Extensive structural variation between ecotypes of Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, revealed with linked-read sequencing and optical mapping. Poster presented at Speciation: Gordon Research Conference, Ventura, California, USA. March 10--15, 2019.   Several “stocks” are recognized for fisheries management among Atlantic cod. The stocks are populations that differ from each other […]
