While linkage disequilibrium (LD) is an important parameter in genetics and evolutionary biology, the drivers of LD remain elusive. Using whole-genome sequences from across a species’ range, we assessed impact demographic history mating system on LD. Both range expansion shift outcrossing to selfing North American Arabidopsis lyrata were associated with increased average genome-wide Our results...

Forest connectivity is important for the range shifts and long-term persistence of forest-dependent species, especially in context climate change. This study assessed European forests species to track suitable conditions as warms. Here, was calculated temperature difference between each forest patch coolest that can be reached along gradients. We found that, overall, about 36% total forested ar...
