Genomic approaches to accelerate American chestnut restoration
More than a century after two introduced pathogens killed billions of American chestnut trees, introgression of resistance alleles from Chinese chestnuts has contributed to the recovery of self-sustai...

Preprint alert: We adopt a cheap & rapid WGS protocol for vertebrate sized genomes, and use it to sequence nearly 1K whitefish genomes to low/med coverage for lake-wide pop genomics of adults + larvae for species assignment, habitat use, decline & selection: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
