Conservation macrogenetics: harnessing genetic data to meet conservation commitments
Trends Genet. 2023 Aug 28:S0168-9525(23)00181-6. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.08.002. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGenetic biodiversity is rapidly gaining attention in global conservation policy. However, for almost all species, conservation relevant, population-level genetic data are lacking, limiting the extent to which genetic diversity can be used for conservation policy and decision-making. Macrogenetics is an emerging discipline that explores the patterns and processes underlying population genetic composition at broad taxonomic and spatial scales by aggregating and reanalyzing thousands of published genetic datasets. He...

From genome size to trait evolution during angiosperm radiation
Trends Genet. 2023 Aug 14:S0168-9525(23)00164-6. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.07.006. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAngiosperm diversity arises from trait flexibility and repeated evolutionary radiations, but the role of genomic characters in these radiations remains unclear. In this opinion article, we discuss how genome size can influence angiosperm diversification via its intricate link with cell size, tissue packing, and physiological processes which, in turn, influence the macroevolution of functional traits. We propose that integrating genome size, functional traits, and phylogenetic data across a wide range of lineages a...
