Selection against domestication alleles in introduced rabbit populations - Nature Ecology & Evolution
Abstract Humans have moved domestic animals around the globe for thousands of years. These have occasionally established feral populations in nature, often with devastating ecological consequences. To understand how natural selection shapes re-adaptation into the wild, we investigated one of the most successful colonizers in history, the European rabbit. By sequencing the genomes of 297 rabbits across three continents, we show that introduced populations exhibit a mixed wild–domestic ancestry.

Comparative Analysis of RNA Virome Composition in Rabbits and Associated Ectoparasites
Genetic Diversity and Evolution Jackie E. Mahar, Mang Shi, Robyn N. Hall, Tanja Strive, Edward C. Holmes Julie K. Pfeiffer, Editor DOI: 10.1128/JVI.02119-19 ABSTRACT Ectoparasites play an important role in virus transmission among vertebrates. Little, however, is known about the nature of those viruses that pass between invertebrates and vertebrates.
RNA-Dependent RNA Polymerases of Both Virulent and Benign Rabbit Caliciviruses Induce Striking Rearrangement of Golgi Membranes
The extremely pathogenic Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) and the completely benign Rabbit calicivirus (RCV) are closely related members of the genus Lagovirus (family Caliciviridae). The molecular mechanisms that determine the dramatic difference in virulence are unknown, but indirect evidence suggests that different properties of their RNA-dependent RNA polymerases (RdRps) may at least partially be responsible for the contrasting phenotypes.
