Abstract The fixation index, FIS, has been a staple measure to detect selection, or departures from random mating in populations. However, current Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) cannot easily estimate FIS, in multi‐locus gene families that contai

Many people wonder whether biology, including humans, will benefit or experience harm from new developments in information such as artificial intelligence (AI). Here, it is proposed that biological and non-biological information might be components o

To understand and manage any ecosystem, one of the most critical indicators is census population size (‘Nc’) for each component species. This is why the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) stipulates that it is ideal to know cen

Major dams are found to disrupt platypus gene flow and dispersal, with higher genetic differentiation found across dams than along similar stretches of undammed rivers, indicating that they act as significant barriers to platypus movement.

Two fundamental questions for evolutionary studies are the speed at which evolution occurs, and the way that this evolution may present itself within an organism’s genome. Evolutionary studies on invasive populations are poised to tackle some of th

Abstract Investigations into cooperative partner choice should consider both potential and realised partners, allowing for the comparison of traits across all those available. Male bottlenose dolphins form persisting multi-level alliances. Second-ord

Abstract The enemy release hypothesis is often cited as a potential explanation for the success of introduced plants; yet, empirical evidence for enemy release is mixed. We aimed to quantify changes in herbivory and defense in introduced plants while

Patterns of covariation between phenotype and environment are presumed to be reflective of local adaptation, and therefore translate to a meaningful influence on an individual’s overall fitness within that specific environment. However, these envir

Accurately detecting sudden changes, or steps, in genetic diversity across landscapes is important for locating barriers to gene flow, identifying selectively important loci, and defining management units. However, there are many metrics that researc

Abstract Genetic diversity is essential for populations to adapt to changing environments. Measures of genetic diversity are often based on selectively neutral markers, such as microsatellites. Genetic diversity to guide conservation management, howe
