Temporal Loss of Genome‐Wide and Immunogenetic Diversity in a Near‐Extinct Parrot
Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 9, May 2025.ABSTRACT Loss of genetic diversity threatens a species' adaptive potential and long‐term resilience. Predicted to be extinct by 2038, the orange‐bellied parrot (Neophema chrysogaster) is a critically endangered migratory bird threatened by numerous viral, bacterial and fungal diseases.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.A novel framework for determining the causes of mortality of large GPS‐tagged birds, the LIFE EUROKITE Assessment Protocol (LEAP), was developed. LEAP integrates GPS tracking data, site investigation, and necropsy to derive mortality causes and a corresponding certainty score. Two case studies demonstrated improvements in mortality assessments compared

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 343, Issue 1, Page 48-58, January 2025.Lovebird adults had redder faces than juveniles, and birds with brighter faces had lower glucose levels and were less likely to have polyomavirus. Male lovebirds had bluer rumps than females. Lovebirds caught farther from the city had redder and darker feathers than those caught closer to the urban center.
