ANOTHER ROUTE. “The genomic landscapes of diversity and differentiation are usually highly heterogeneous, it has also led to the increasing realization that this heterogeneity may evolve under processes other than adaptation or speciation.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

SELECTION IS CORE. “Selection has a deep impact on the distribution of genetic diversity and population differentiation along the genome (the genomic landscapes of diversity and differentiation), reducing diversity and elevating differentiation not only at the sites it targets, but also at linked neutral sites.” https://lnkd.in/dWhdAqA View in LinkedIn

NON-ADAPTIVE. “Evolution by non-adaptive forces also occurs quickly, with ecological consequences.” https://lnkd.in/dv4gE6X View in LinkedIn

ADAPTATION, TWO WAYS. “Recent eco-evolutionary research focuses on how rapid adaptation influences ecology, and vice versa.” https://lnkd.in/dv4gE6X View in LinkedIn

INHERITANCE. “As a result, along with heterogeneous recombination landscapes, ancestors transmit a diversity landscape to their daughter species whose heterogeneity may continue to be maintained by liked selection for as long as the recombination landscape persists.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

LINKED SELECTION. “In genome regions in which low-recombination rate is conserved across multiple consecutive speciation events, the diversity-reducing effects of linked selection accumulate across extended periods of time.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

GENOMIC LANDSCAPES. “The observed correlations are a direct prediction of long-term linked selection in heterogeneous recombination landscapes that are conserved among species.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

DIVERSITY GENOMES. “Correlated genomic landscapes in birds have persisted over tens of millions of years, making a strong case for genomic features—in particular recombination rate—in governing the genomic landscapes of diversity and differentiation.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

DISPLACED CONCEPT. “Linked selection may have further reaching consequences than anticipated so far, putting even the previous golden standard practice of replication and the inference of parallel evolution into the line of fire.” http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/mec.14167/full View in LinkedIn

OLIVE TREE BLIGHT. A couple of years ago I contacted a Texas researcher who had identified a phage specific for the olive blight, but was brushed aside. Since then nothing has happened. It could solve the olive blight problem. Equally, quorum sensing bacterial pheromones would be a promising approach. Are the agriculture science advisors asleep? https://www.ecowatch.com/olive-trees-disease-europe-2645714129.html?rebelltitem=3#rebelltitem3 View in LinkedIn
