The complete mitochondrial genome of common greenshank Tringa nebularia

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The complete mitochondrial genome of Common Greenshank Tringa nebularia was obtained using next-generation sequencing. The circular genome was 16,682 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and

Attachment Patterns of Human and Avian Influenza Viruses to Trachea and Colon of 26 Bird Species – Support for the Community Concept

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Avian influenza A viruses (AIVs) have a broad host range, but are most intimately associated with waterfowl (Anseriformes) and, in the case of the H13 and H16 subtypes, gulls (Charadriiformes).

Avian Influenza Virus Prevalence and Subtype Diversity in Wild Birds in Shanghai, China, 2016–2018

Viruses, 2020
From 2016 to 2018, surveillance of influenza A viruses in wild birds was conducted in Shanghai, located at the East Asian–Australian flyway, China. A total of 5112 samples from 51 species of wild birds were collected from three different wetlands.

Nesting behaviour influences species-specific gas exchange across avian eggshells [PDF]

, 2014
Carefully controlled gas exchange across the eggshell is essential for the development of the avian embryo. Water vapour conductance (GH2O) across the shell, typically measured as mass loss during incubation, has been demonstrated to optimally ensure the

Lack of Population Structure of an Extreme Migratory Shorebird: Evidence of Gene Flow Between Geographically Disparate Populations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Gene flow is key to understand the population connectivity of a given species, specially when small and segregated populations threaten its conservation. In this study we explored the population structure of the Hudsonian Godwit (Limosa haemastica), a long‐distance migratory shorebird.

A Multi‐Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...

Using the marine flyways concept to accelerate ocean conservation

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
Implementing the marine flyways framework can secure ecological connectivity across the marine environment, including in synergistic implementation of existing regional policy instruments and multiple multilateral environmental agreements, including CMS, the Kunming‐Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KMGBF) and the Agreement on the Conservation ...

Avian influenza virus ecology in wild birds of Western Siberia

Avian Research, 2017
Background The aim of the study was to explore the ecological diversity of wild birds in Siberia, which are the natural reservoir of avian influenza virus (AIV). Methods Cloacal swabs and intestinal fragments were collected from wild migratory birds from

Will improving wastewater treatment impact shorebirds? Effects of sewage discharges on estuarine invertebrates and birds [PDF]

, 2012
Human communities often discharge wastewaters into estuaries, influencing their organic and pollutant loading, benthic community and trophic structure.
