Utilizing an advanced deep learning algorithm (partialS/HIC) and a range of inferred demographic histories, we identified that approximately 14% of the genome is directly affected by sweeps, with soft sweeps being more prevalent (10.6%) than hard sweeps (2.1%), and partial sweeps being uncommon (1.3%). The algorithm demonstrated robustness to demographic assumptions in classifying complete sweeps but faced challenges in distinguishing neutral regions from partial sweeps and linked regions under demographic misspecification. The findings reveal the indirect influence of sweeps on nearly two-thirds of the genome through linkage, with an over-representation of putatively deleterious variants suggesting that positive selection drags deleterious variants to higher frequency due to hitchhiking with beneficial loci. Gene ontology enrichment analysis further supported our confidence in the accuracy of sweep detection as several traits expected to be under positive selection due to evolutionary arms races (e.g. immunity) were detected in hard sweeps.

Soil biodiversity is influenced by above-ground (vegetation) and below-ground factors (soil properties), which together create habitat-specific conditions. However, the compound effects of vegetation and soil properties on soil communities are less studied or often focused on one component of the soil biota. Here, we integrate metabarcoding (16S and 18S rRNA genes) and nematode morphology to assess the effects of habitat and soil properties shaping microbial and microeukaryotic communities as well as nematode-associated microbiomes. We show that both vegetation and soil properties (soil bulk density) were major factors structuring microbial and microeukaryotic communities in semi-arid soil habitats. Despite having lower nutrients and lower pH, denser soils displayed significantly higher alpha diversity than less dense soils across datasets. Nematode-associated microbiomes have lower microbial diversity, strongly differ from soil microbes and are more likely to respond to microscale variations among samples than to vegetation or soil bulk density. Consequently, different nematode lineages and trophic groups are likely to display similar associated microbiomes when sharing the same microhabitat. Different microbiome taxa were enriched within specific nematode lineages (e.g. <i>Mycobacterium</i>, <i>Candidatus Cardinium</i>) highlighting potentially new species-specific associations that may confer benefits to their soil nematode hosts.

However, the molecular mechanism by which such a peculiar sea anemone adapts to a deep-sea oligotrophic environment is unknown. Here, we report the chromosomal-level genome of <i>A. liui</i> constructed from PacBio and Hi-C data. The assembled genome is 522 Mb in size and exhibits a continuous scaffold N50 of 58.4 Mb. Different from most other sea anemones, which typically possess 14–18 chromosomes per haplotype, <i>A. liui</i> has only 11. The reduced number of chromosomes is associated with chromosome fusion, which likely represents an adaptive strategy to economize energy in oligotrophic deep-sea environments. Comparative analysis with other deep-sea sea anemones revealed adaptive evolution in genes related to cellular autophagy (TMBIM6, SESN1, SCOCB and RPTOR) and mitochondrial energy metabolism (MDH1B and KAD2), which may aid in <i>A. liui</i> coping with severe food scarcity. Meanwhile, the genome has undergone at least two rounds of expansion in gene families associated with fast synaptic transmission, facilitating rapid responses to water currents and prey.

Disentangling the roles of each of these non-exclusive processes in shaping genome-wide patterns of divergence is challenging but will enhance our knowledge of the repeatability of genomic landscapes across taxa. Here, we combine whole-genome resequencing and genome feature data to investigate the processes shaping the genomic landscape of differentiation for a sister-species pair of haplodiploid pine sawflies, <i>Neodiprion lecontei</i> and <i>Neodiprion pinetum</i>. We find genome-wide correlations between genome features and summary statistics are consistent with pervasive linked selection, with patterns of diversity and divergence more consistently predicted by exon density and recombination rate than the neutral mutation rate (approximated by dS). We also find that both global and local patterns of <i>F</i>_ST, <i>d</i>_XY and <i>π</i> provide strong support for recurrent selection as the primary selective process shaping variation across pine sawfly genomes, with some contribution from balancing selection and lineage-specific linked selection. Because inheritance patterns for haplodiploid genomes are analogous to those of sex chromosomes, we hypothesize that haplodiploids may be especially prone to recurrent selection, even if gene flow occurred throughout divergence.

The transition from the land to sea in marine mammals is an attractive model for understanding the influence of habitat shifts on sensory systems, with the retained OR repertoire of baleen whales contrasting with its loss in toothed whales. In this study, we examine to what extent the transition from a terrestrial to a marine environment has influenced the evolution of baleen whale OR repertoires. We developed Gene Mining Pipeline (GMPipe) (https://github.com/AprilJauhal/GMPipe), which can accurately identify large numbers of candidate OR genes. GMPipe identified 707 OR sequences from eight baleen whale species. These repertoires exhibited distinct family count distributions compared to terrestrial mammals, including signs of relative expansion in families OR10, OR11 and OR13. While many receptors have been lost or show signs of random drift in baleen whales, others exhibit signs of evolving under purifying or positive selection. Over 85% of OR genes could be sorted into orthologous groups of sequences containing at least four homologous sequences. Many of these groups, particularly from family OR10, presented signs of relative expansion and purifying selective pressure.

Microbiome composition first diverged as an effect of translocation to either the brackish or freshwater habitat. When the freshwater individuals were translocated back to brackish water, their microbiome composition converged towards the fish microbiomes in the brackish habitat. In summary, external environmental conditions and individual-specific factors jointly determined the community composition dynamics, whereas inter-host dispersal had negligible effects.
