Claims
-
The draft alkali bee genome assembly is 299.6 million base pairs, with 10,847 predicted protein-coding genes; 37.5% of the genome is repetitive content.
"37.5% of the N. melanderi genome is repetitive content"
-
Sampling females from nesting aggregations in and around Touchet, Washington, the study found no evidence of population structure, and inferred that effective population size declined within the last 10,000 years; 479 genes showed signs of positive directional selection.
"We did not find any evidence of population structure among our samples."
