• Ecological and evolutionary implications of food subsidies from humans. (2013, background): “A prime example comes from the appearance of dogs domesticated from wild wolves, related to the exploitation of waste dumps near increasingly common human settlements (Axelsson et al. 2013).”
• The palaeogenetics of cat dispersal in the ancient world (2017, neutral): “A split in an ancestral Anatolian cat population in the late Pleistocene epoch, presumably during the Last Glacial Maximum, followed by local differentiation and/or drift and founder effect, might have been responsible for the distribution of distinct clade IV mtDNA lineages in Anatolia and southeas”
• Adaptive introgression in animals: examples and comparison to new mutation and standing variation as sources of adaptive variation (2013, background): “However, this does not exclude a shared ancestral polymorphism for these variants in wolves and dogs, and there is evidence of multiple domestications of dogs, some of which could be more recent (Axelsson et al. 2013).”
