Comparative genomics reveals insights into avian genome evolution and adaptation
- Guo-Jie Zhang, C. Li, +103 authors J. Wang
- Biology, Medicine
- Science
- 12 December 2014
Birds are the most species-rich class of tetrapod vertebrates and have wide relevance across many research fields. We explored bird macroevolution using full genomes from 48 avian species… Expand
Cryptic species in the genus Phylloscopus (Old World leaf warblers)
- D. Irwin, P. Alström, U. Olsson, Z. M. Benowitz-Fredericks
- Biology
- 1 April 2001
In almost all ecological and evolutionary research, it is important to assess the number of species under study. Cryptic species, which are morphologically similar, present a special problem because… Expand
Recent northward range expansion promotes song evolution in a passerine bird, the Light‐vented Bulbul
- X. Xing, P. Alström, X. J. Yang, F. Lei
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of evolutionary biology
- 1 April 2013
In common with human speech, song is culturally inherited in oscine passerine birds (‘songbirds’). Intraspecific divergence in birdsong, such as development of local dialects, might be an important… Expand
Multiple instances of paraphyletic species and cryptic taxa revealed by mitochondrial and nuclear RAD data for Calandrella larks (Aves: Alaudidae).

- 1 September 2016
The avian genus Calandrella (larks) was recently suggested to be non-monophyletic, and was divided into two genera, of which Calandrella sensu stricto comprises 4-5 species in Eurasia and Africa. We… Expand
Miocene diversification of an open‐habitat predatorial passerine radiation, the shrikes (Aves: Passeriformes: Laniidae)
- J. Fuchs, P. Alström, R. Yosef, U. Olsson
- Biology
- 1 September 2019
Diversification of avifaunas associated with savannah and steppes appears to correlate with open habitats becoming available, starting in the Miocene. Few comparative analyses exist for families for… Expand

Densely sampled phylogenetic analyses of the Lesser Short‐toed Lark (Alaudala rufescens) — Sand Lark (A. raytal) species complex (Aves, Passeriformes) reveal cryptic diversity
- F. Ghorbani, M. Aliabadian, +7 authors P. Alström
- Biology
- 8 May 2020
The taxonomy of the Lesser/Asian Short‐toed Lark Alaudala rufescens–cheleensis complex has been debated for decades, mainly because of minor morphological differentiation among the taxa within the… Expand
