Complete mitochondrial genome of white-backed woodpecker Dendrocopos leucotos (Piciformes: Picidae) and its phylogenetic position

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
The white-backed woodpecker (Dendrocopos leucotos) is an ecologically important bird in Eurasian forest ecosystems. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the species was sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology.

Hybridization and Asymmetrical Introgression Between the Vulnerable Gray-Headed Chickadee and a More Abundant Congener, the Boreal Chickadee: Implications for Conservation. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We assess genetic evidence of hybridization between gray‐headed chickadees and boreal chickadees using mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA sequencing of individuals from historical and contemporary time periods. We detected two early‐generation hybrids among the historical boreal chickadee samples and none within the contemporary boreal chickadee samples

The first complete mitogenome of Australia’s largest raptor, the wedge-tailed eagle (Aquila audax)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
In this paper, we report the genomic architecture of a complete mitogenome from a Wedge-tailed eagle (Aquila audax). The mitogenome sequence was circular, and 17,494 bp in length. Compared to other members of the family Accipitridae, the genome encoded a

Diversity, abundance, and host relationships of avian malaria and related haemosporidians in New Mexico pine forests [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Avian malaria and related haemosporidian parasites (genera Haemoproteus, Plasmodium, and Leucocytozoon) affect bird demography, species range limits, and community structure, yet they remain unsurveyed in most bird communities and populations.

Leucocytozoon cariamae n. sp. and Haemoproteus pulcher coinfection in Cariama cristata (Aves: Cariamiformes): first mitochondrial genome analysis and morphological description of a leucocytozoid in Brazil

open access: yesParasitology, 2023
The distribution of avian haemosporidians of the genus Leucocytozoon in the Neotropics remains poorly understood. Recent studies confirmed their presence in the region using molecular techniques alone, but evidence for gametocytes and data on putative ...

Characterization of the first mitochondrial genome of a little Corella (Cacatua sanguinea) and its phylogenetic implications

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
This study was designed to sequence the first complete mitochondrial genome from a little corella (Cacatua sanguinea). The mitogenome sequence was circular and 16,695 bp in length.

Fine-scale population structure and asymmetrical dispersal in an obligate salt-marsh passerine, the Saltmarsh Sparrow (Ammodramus Caudacutus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Understanding the spatial scale of gene flow can yield valuable insight into the ecology of an organism and guide conservation strategies. Fine-scale genetic structure is uncommon in migratory passerines because of their high vagility and presumed high ...

The first complete mitogenome of Indian ringneck (Psittacula krameri) demonstrates close phylogenetic relationship with Eclectus parrot

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
This study was aimed to sequence the first complete mitochondrial genome from an Indian ringneck parrot (Psittacula krameri). The mitogenome sequence was circular and 16,413 bp in length. In comparison to other available mitogenome sequences belonging to

Search for virus specific DNA sequences and viral particles in mitochondria of avian leukemic myeloblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
The intracellular localization of the avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) genome was studied. Nuclear and mitochondrial DNAs from myeloblasts were examined by hybridization with 32P labeled AMV-RNA of high molecular weight for the presence of virus specific
