The whole-genome duplication 80 million years ago of the common ancestor of salmonids (salmonid-specific
fourth vertebrate whole-genome duplication, Ss4R) provides unique …

Adaptation to local conditions is a fundamental process in evolution; however, mechanisms
maintaining local adaptation despite high gene flow are still poorly understood. Marine …

Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is a large, cold-adapted teleost that sustains long-standing
commercial fisheries and incipient aquaculture 1 , 2 . Here we present the genome sequence of …

How genomic selection enables species to adapt to divergent environments is a fundamental
question in ecology and evolution. We investigated the genomic signatures of local …

Background The first Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) genome assembly published in 2011
was one of the early genome assemblies exclusively based on high-throughput 454 …

Progress in genome sequencing now enables the large-scale generation of reference genomes.
Various international initiatives aim to generate reference genomes representing global …

The availability of public genomic resources can greatly assist biodiversity assessment,
conservation, and restoration efforts by providing evidence for scientifically informed …

Adaptive radiation is the likely source of much of the ecological and morphological diversity
of life 1 , 2 , 3 – 4 . How adaptive radiations proceed and what determines their extent …

Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis) is a promising aquaculture candidate, but the growth
performance of this non-domesticated species may be negatively affected by its stress …

Teleost fishes constitute the most species-rich vertebrate clade and exhibit extensive genetic
and phenotypic variation, including diverse immune defense strategies. The genomic basis …
