Mitochondrial genome of the critically endangered Baer’s Pochard, Aythya baeri, and its phylogenetic relationship with other Anatidae species [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2021
Historically, the diving duck, Baer’s Pochard (Aythya baeri) was widely distributed in East and South Asia, but according to a recent estimate, its global population is now less than 1000 individuals. To date, the mitochondrial genome of A. baeri has not

Metagenomic and Antibiotic Resistance Analysis of the Gut Microbiota in Larus relictus and Anatidae Species Inhabiting the Honghaizi Wetland of Ordos, Inner Mongolia, from 2021 to 2023 [PDF]

Microorganisms
Gut microbes thrive by utilising host energy and, in return, provide valuable benefits, akin to a symbiotic relationship. Here, metagenomic sequencing was performed to characterise and compare the community composition, diversity and antibiotic ...

Detailed cytogenetic analysis of three duck species (the northern pintail, mallard, and common goldeneye) and karyotype evolution in the family Anatidae (Anseriformes, Aves) [PDF]

Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции
Galliformes and Anseriformes are two branches of the Galloanserae group, basal to other Neognathae. In contrast to Galliformes, Anseriformes have not been thoroughly researched by cytogenetic methods.

A library of avian proteins improves palaeoproteomic taxonomic identification and reveals widespread intraspecies variability [PDF]

Nature Communications
Biomineral-associated proteins, such as those found in bone, teeth, and eggshell, have become instrumental for studying ancient life, as they often survive far longer than DNA.
