High-throughput sequencing data have greatly improved our ability to understand the processes that contribute to current biodiversity patterns. The “vanishing refuge” diversification model is speculat
Scripts and programs to estimates nucleotide diversity in the Zosterops borbonicus genome. See Leroy et al. A bird's white-eye shot: looking down on a new avian sex chromosome evolution.
It has long been suspected that the rate of mutation varies across the human genome at a large scale based on the divergence between humans and other species. However, it is now possible to directly i
