Novel insights into chromosome evolution of Charadriiformes: extensive genomic reshuffling in the wattled jacana (Jacana jacana, Charadriiformes, Jacanidae) [PDF]
The order Charadriiformes comprises three major clades: Lari and Scolopaci as sister group to Charadrii. Until now, only three Charadriiformes species have been studied by chromosome painting: Larus argentatus (Lari), Burhinus oedicnemus and Vanellus ...

The mitochondrial genome of pin-tailed snipe Gallinago stenura, and its implications for the phylogeny of Charadriiformes. [PDF]
The Charadriiformes, among the most diverse orders of bird, is a good source to research on evolution. The mitochondrial genome sequencing database has rapidly increased in recent years, while Charadriiformes mitogenome has not been well studied. In this

Complete mitochondrial genome of the snowy sheathbill (Chionis albus, Charadriiformes: chionidae) and its phylogenetic implications [PDF]
The snowy sheathbill (Chionis albus (Gmelin, 1789)) is a coastal Antarctic bird that breeds on Antarctic and sub-Antarctic islands. In this study, we report the first complete mitochondrial genome sequence of C. albus.

Multilocus perspectives on the monophyly and phylogeny of the order Charadriiformes (Aves)
Background The phylogeny of shorebirds (Aves: Charadriiformes) and their putative sister groups was reconstructed using approximately 5 kilobases of data from three nuclear loci and two mitochondrial genes, and compared to that based on two other nuclear

Natural infections of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 in wild birds between 2020 and 2023 in the UK: a retrospective study with focus on microscopic lesions, viral distribution and neurotropism [PDF]
Since the emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 clade 2.3.4.4 Goose/Guangdong lineage in Europe in 2014, an unprecedented outbreak occurred during the 2021–2022 epidemiological year, causing mass mortalities in wild birds, including ...
