Genetic diversity, demographic history and neo-sex chromosomes in the Critically Endangered Raso lark.
Dierickx EG, Sin SYW, van Veelen HPJ, Brooke ML, Liu Y, Edwards SV, Martin SH. Dierickx EG, et al. Among authors: edwards sv. Proc Biol Sci. 2020 Mar 11;287(1922):20192613. doi: 10.1098/rspb.2019.2613. Epub 2020 Mar 4. Proc Biol Sci. 2020. PMID: 32126957 Free PMC article.
We then show that genetic diversity across autosomes in the Raso lark is lower than in its mainland relatives, but inconsistent with long-term persistence at its current population size. Finally, we find that genetic signatures of the recent population contraction are over …

We then focus on mapping and modelling of museum data (including place-based approaches and discovery), and explore the main projects, platforms and databases enabling this growth. Finally, we aim to improve relevant protocols for the long-term storage of specimens and tis …

Avian MHC Evolution in the Era of Genomics: Phase 1.0.
O'Connor EA, Westerdahl H, Burri R, Edwards SV. O'Connor EA, et al. Among authors: edwards sv. Cells. 2019 Sep 26;8(10):1152. doi: 10.3390/cells8101152. Cells. 2019. PMID: 31561531 Free PMC article. Review.
Recent studies of the avian MHC have nonetheless revealed intriguing connections between MHC structure and life history traits, and highlight the advantages of long-term ecological studies for understanding the patterns of MHC variation in the wild. ...

Climate-mediated adaptation after mainland colonization of an ancestrally subtropical island lizard, Anolis carolinensis.
Campbell-Staton SC, Edwards SV, Losos JB. Campbell-Staton SC, et al. Among authors: edwards sv. J Evol Biol. 2016 Nov;29(11):2168-2180. doi: 10.1111/jeb.12935. Epub 2016 Aug 1. J Evol Biol. 2016. PMID: 27384884 Free article.
In this study, we used the natural colonization of the green anole (Anolis carolinensis) from the island of Cuba to mainland North America to investigate the role of evolution at the niche, phenotypic and genetic levels after long-term establishment in a novel environment. …

Is a new and general theory of molecular systematics emerging?
Edwards SV. Edwards SV. Evolution. 2009 Jan;63(1):1-19. doi: 10.1111/j.1558-5646.2008.00549.x. Evolution. 2009. PMID: 19146594
In addition to adopting new methods of phylogenetic analysis (and ideally reserving the term "phylogeny" for species trees rather than gene trees), the new paradigm suggests shifts in a number of practices, such as sampling data to maximize not only the number of accumulat …

Songbird genomics: analysis of 45 kb upstream of a polymorphic Mhc class II gene in red-winged blackbirds (Agelaius phoeniceus).
Gasper JS, Shiina T, Inoko H, Edwards SV. Gasper JS, et al. Among authors: edwards sv. Genomics. 2001 Jul;75(1-3):26-34. doi: 10.1006/geno.2001.6596. Genomics. 2001. PMID: 11472064
Despite this, interspecific comparisons indicate that all three blackbird Mhc genes diverged from one another less than 35 million years ago and are subject to concerted evolution in the long term. Comparison of blackbird and chicken Mhc promoter regions revealed songbird …

Toward an evolutionary genomics of the avian Mhc.
Edwards SV, Hess CM, Gasper J, Garrigan D. Edwards SV, et al. Immunol Rev. 1999 Feb;167:119-32. doi: 10.1111/j.1600-065x.1999.tb01386.x. Immunol Rev. 1999. PMID: 10319255 Review.
Phylogenetic analysis of available class II B peptide-binding region exons suggests that the overwhelming long-term force operating on avian genes sampled thus far has been post-speciation gene duplication and/or concerted evolution. ...

Evolution and ecology of MHC molecules: from genomics to sexual selection.
Edwards SV, Hedrick PW. Edwards SV, et al. Trends Ecol Evol. 1998 Aug 1;13(8):305-11. doi: 10.1016/s0169-5347(98)01416-5. Trends Ecol Evol. 1998. PMID: 21238318
In the past few years the DNA sequence database for molecules of the MHC (major histocompatibility complex) has expanded greatly, yielding a more complete picture of the long-term rates and patterns of evolution of the MHC in vertebrates. Sharing of MHC allelic lineages be …

Contrasting histories of avian and mammalian Mhc genes revealed by class II B sequences from songbirds.
Edwards SV, Wakeland EK, Potts WK. Edwards SV, et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1995 Dec 19;92(26):12200-4. doi: 10.1073/pnas.92.26.12200. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1995. PMID: 8618869 Free PMC article.
Thus, whereas the selective forces diversifying class II B genes of birds are likely similar to those in mammals, their long-term evolutionary dynamics appear to be characterized by much higher rates of concerted evolution....
