Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Olfactory System Expression Characteristics of Aquatic Snakes

Zhong-Liang Peng et al.

Summary: Animal olfactory systems have evolved to detect odor cues in the environment, but aquatic environments present a unique challenge due to the higher density and viscosity of water. This study used RNA sequencing to investigate gene expression changes in the olfactory systems of aquatic and non-aquatic snake species. The results showed significant differences in gene expression profiles between aquatic and non-aquatic habitats, suggesting adaptations to the aquatic environment. Specific genes, such as RELN, may play a role in regulating neuronal patterns for complex chemical information recognition in aquatic snakes. The high expression of TRPC2 and V2R family genes in the accessory olfactory systems of aquatic snakes may enhance their ability to detect water-soluble odor molecules. This research provides a foundation for understanding the olfactory adaptation of snakes in unique habitats.

pixy: Unbiased estimation of nucleotide diversity and divergence in the presence of missing data

Katharine L. Korunes et al.

Summary: Population genetic analyses often use summary statistics such as pi and d(XY) to describe genetic variation patterns. However, biases can be introduced due to missing data, which can lead to underestimation of genetic diversity within and between populations. In this study, a user-friendly UNIX command line utility, pixy, is introduced to address this issue and provide unbiased estimates of pi and d(XY) regardless of the amount or form of missing data.

Isolation and reconnection: Demographic history and multiple contact zones of the green odorous frog (Odorrana margaretae) around the Sichuan Basin

Guannan Wen et al.

Summary: The green odorous frog in western China displays a circular distribution and multiple hybrid zones between lineages with high levels of divergence. Population structure analysis revealed three main groups, with demographic inference suggesting initial isolation approximately 2 million years ago followed by post-glacial expansion. Hybridization in contact zones involved lineages with varying levels of divergence and different patterns of introgression, with some contact zones showing potential barrier effects.

OptM: estimating the optimal number of migration edges on population trees using Treemix

Robert R. Fitak

Summary: The study shows that inferring the optimal number of migration events in population trees can be achieved by examining the second-order rate of change in likelihood (Δm), which performs equally well as current recommendations for Treemix. This method may be preferable in large, complex population histories.
