Edwards S, Cloutier A, Cockburn G, Driver R, Grayson P, Katoh K, et al.
Sci Adv
. 2024 May;
10(21):eadj6823.
PMID: 38781323
We present a draft genome of the little bush moa ()-one of approximately nine species of extinct flightless birds from Aotearoa, New Zealand-using ancient DNA recovered from a fossil bone...

Mol Ecol
. 2022 Feb;
31(7):2124-2139.
PMID: 35106871
Present-day ecology and population structure are the legacies of past climate and habitat perturbations, and this is particularly true for species that are widely distributed at high latitudes. The red...

Cloutier A, Sackton T, Grayson P, Clamp M, Baker A, Edwards S
Syst Biol
. 2019 May;
68(6):937-955.
PMID: 31135914
Palaeognathae represent one of the two basal lineages in modern birds, and comprise the volant (flighted) tinamous and the flightless ratites. Resolving palaeognath phylogenetic relationships has historically proved difficult, and...

Sackton T, Grayson P, Cloutier A, Hu Z, Liu J, Wheeler N, et al.
Science
. 2019 Apr;
364(6435):74-78.
PMID: 30948549
A core question in evolutionary biology is whether convergent phenotypic evolution is driven by convergent molecular changes in proteins or regulatory regions. We combined phylogenomic, developmental, and epigenomic analysis of...

Murray G, Soares A, Novak B, Schaefer N, Cahill J, Baker A, et al.
Science
. 2017 Nov;
358(6365):951-954.
PMID: 29146814
The extinct passenger pigeon was once the most abundant bird in North America, and possibly the world. Although theory predicts that large populations will be more genetically diverse, passenger pigeon...

Shultz A, Baker A, Hill G, Nolan P, Edwards S
Ecol Evol
. 2017 Jul;
6(20):7475-7489.
PMID: 28725414
Identifying genomic signatures of natural selection can be challenging against a background of demographic changes such as bottlenecks and population expansions. Here, we disentangle the effects of demography from selection...

Edwards S, Cloutier A, Baker A
Syst Biol
. 2017 Jun;
66(6):1028-1044.
PMID: 28637293
Noncoding markers have a particular appeal as tools for phylogenomic analysis because, at least in vertebrates, they appear less subject to strong variation in GC content among lineages. Thus far,...

Baker A, Dennison M, Lynch A, Le Grand G
Evolution
. 2017 Jun;
44(4):981-999.
PMID: 28569018
Peripherally isolated populations of common chaffinches (Fringilla coelebs) in the Canaries, Madeira, and Azores were compared genetically with their putative ancestral stock in Iberia and Morocco, and with a population...

Wenink P, Baker A, Rosner H, Tilanus M
Evolution
. 2017 Jun;
50(1):318-330.
PMID: 28568852
Comparison of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control-region sequences of 155 dunlins from 15 breeding populations confirmed the existence of five major phylogeographic groups in the circumpolar breeding range of this migratory...

. 2017 Jun;
51(3):946-956.
PMID: 28568600
Genetic variability within and among 10 geographically distinct populations of Greenfinches (Carduelis chloris) was assayed by directly sequencing a 637 BP part of the mtDNA control region from 194 individuals....
