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

Mitochondrial 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

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of an Australian little penguin (Eudyptula minor novaehollandia, J.R. Forster, 1781)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
In this paper, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of an Australian little penguin (Eudyptula minor novaehollandia). The mitogenome sequence has been found to be circular, and 17,608 bp in length. Similar to other Spheniscidae species, the genome

An Intergeneric Hybrid Between Historically Isolated Temperate and Tropical Jays Following Recent Range Expansion. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We document the first known hybridization event between the Green Jay (Cyanocorax yncas) and Blue Jay (Cyanocitta cristata), two distantly related species whose ranges now overlap in Texas due to climate‐driven range expansions. Genetic and morphological evidence confirm this unprecedented hybridization, which represents a remarkable breach of ...

Population history, gene flow, and bottlenecks in island populations of a secondary seed disperser, the southern grey shrike (Lanius meridionalis koenigi) [PDF]

, 2014
Studying the population history and demography of organisms with important ecological roles can aid understanding of evolutionary processes at the community level and inform conservation.

The first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of an Australian raven (Corvus coronoides)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of an Australian raven (Corvus coronoides). The mitogenome of C. coronoides was characterised as a circular molecule of 16,925 bp in length encoding a typically conserved structure similar to those of ...

Are mutagenic non D-loop direct repeat motifs in mitochondrial DNA under a negative selection pressure? [PDF]

, 2017
Non D-loop direct repeats (DRs) in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been commonly implicated in the mutagenesis of mtDNA deletions associated with neuromuscular disease and ageing.
