We conducted the first de novo genome sequencing and assembly of the pink-footed goose. This is an arctic bird that seasonally migrated between the arctic and northern Europe and which has been influe
The appearance of people associated with the Lapita culture in the South Pacific ~3,000 years ago marked the beginning of the last major human dispersal to unpopulated lands, culminating in the settle
Migration is typically associated with risk and uncertainty, but little is known about its cost and benefit trade-offs. Migratory insects in particular often exhibit strong demographic fluctuations an
In this study, we identified genes associated with migratory traits by undertaking pooled genome-wide scans on a natural population of a facultatively migrating ungulate.
