      Understanding the biological processes involved in genetic differentiation and divergence between populations within species is a pivotal aim in evolutionary biology. One particular phenomenon that requires clarification ...
    • Disentangling structural genomic and behavioral barriers in a sea of connectivity 

      Barth, Julia Maria Isis; Villegas-Ríos, David; Freitas, Carla; Moland, Even; Star, Bastiaan; André, Carl; Knutsen, Halvor; Bradbury, Ian; Dierking, Jan; Petereit, Christoph; Righton, David; Metcalfe, Julian; Jakobsen, Kjetill Sigurd; Olsen, Esben Moland; Jentoft, Sissel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Genetic divergence among populations arises through natural selection or drift and is counteracted by connectivity and gene flow. In sympatric populations, isolating mechanisms are thus needed to limit the homogenizing ...
    • Ecosystems monitoring powered by environmental genomics: a review of current strategies with an implementation roadmap 

      Cordier, Tristan; Alonso Sáez, Laura; Apothéloz-Perret-Gentil, Laure; Aylagas, Eva; Bohan, David A.; Bouchez, Agnès; Chariton, Anthony; Creer, Simon; Frühe, Larissa; Keck, François; Keeley, Nigel B.; Laroche, Olivier; Leese, Florian; Pochon, Xavier; Stoeck, Thorsten; Pawlowski, Jan; Lanzén, Anders (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      A decade after environmental scientists integrated high-throughput sequencing technologies in their toolbox, the genomics-based monitoring of anthropogenic impacts on the biodiversity and functioning of ecosystems is yet ...
    • Genome architecture enables local adaptation of Atlantic cod despite high connectivity 

      Barth, Julia Maria Isis; Berg, Paul Ragnar; Jonsson, Per R; Bonanomi, Sara; Corell, Hanna; Hemmer-Hansen, Jakob; Jakobsen, Kjetill Sigurd; Johannesson, Kerstin; Jorde, Per Erik; Knutsen, Halvor; Moksnes, Per-Olav; Star, Bastiaan; Stenseth, Nils Christian; Svedang, Henrik; Jentoft, Sissel; Andre, Carl (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
