Optimising Genome‐Wide Detection of Runs of Homozygosity: Impacts of Reference Genome Quality and Sequencing Parameters on Inbreeding Assessment

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding and inbreeding depression pose a critical challenge to the persistence of small and isolated populations, driving the need for precise assessment of genomic metrics. Genome‐wide runs of homozygosity (ROH) have been widely used for evaluating contemporary inbreeding levels and tracing historical events, circumventing the limitations ...

Tiger Habitat Occupancy in Chitwan–Parsa Complex: Implications for Human–Tiger Conflict Management Strategies

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
The rebound of tiger populations in Nepal over the last decade has renewed hope for species conservation but also heightened the risk of conflict where humans and tigers coexist. Most of these tigers inhabit Chitwan–Parsa Complex (CPC), which includes core areas prohibiting humans and buffer zones allowing limited activities.

A Genomic Exploration of the Possible De‐Extirpation of the Zanzibar Leopard

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 23, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The recently extirpated Zanzibar leopard was the only known African leopard (Panthera pardus spp.) population restricted exclusively to a major island habitat. Although its demise was driven through habitat change and conflict with humans, given its role as a keystone species for the Zanzibar Archipelago, its successful potential ...

Resource‐driven changes in wild boar movement and their consequences for the spread of African Swine Fever in the Russian Far East

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.
Knowledge of animal movement patterns is invaluable to understanding the spread of diseases among wildlife populations. One example is the recent African swine fever (ASF) outbreak among wild boar Sus scrofa populations across East Asia, where there is a lack of information on movements of this species.

Leydig cell tumor in an Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica).

The Journal of veterinary medical science, 2018
A 14-year and 8-month-old intact male Amur tiger presented with an enlarged left testis, measuring 5.7 × 5.5 × 4.5 cm. The cut surface was mottled dark red to reddish brown in color. Microscopically, the enlarged left testis comprised round or polygonal neoplastic cells arranged in a diffuse sheet pattern.
