  • Genomic signatures of speciation and adaptation in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis (2026) · doi

    Abstract Background Understanding how populations diverge is one of the most compelling questions in evolutionary biology but our grasp on the genomic mechanisms underpinning divergence is limited to a handful of species.

  • Evolution of threespine stickleback dorsal spines via hoxdb gene regulation (2026) · doi

    The repeated emergence of similar phenotypes in independent populations is a widespread feature of evolution, yet the extent to which repeated evolution reflects shared molecular mechanisms, and the factors that determine this similarity, remain unclear.
