Worldwide Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene population declines in extant megafauna are associated with Homo sapiens expansion rather than climate change
The worldwide extinction of megafauna during the Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene is
evident from the fossil record, with dominant theories suggesting a climate, human or …

A Bayesian implementation of the multispecies coalescent model with introgression for phylogenomic analysis
Recent analyses suggest that cross-species gene flow or introgression is common in nature,
especially during species divergences. Genomic sequence data can be used to infer …
