The evolution, distribution and diversity of endogenous circoviral elements in vertebrate genomes [PDF]
, 2018 Circoviruses (family Circoviridae) are small, non-enveloped viruses that have short, single-stranded DNA genomes. Circovirus sequences are frequently recovered in metagenomic investigations, indicating that these viruses are widespread, yet they remain ...

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023 Wildlife trade is a multibillion‐dollar industry and is also largely fueled by the demand for exotic pets. We document, in Japan, the recent exotic pet café phenomenon, and recorded 3793 individuals belonging to 419 different species present in these cafés including many threatened species and several Convention on International Trade in Endangered ...

The U.S. market for imported wildlife not listed in the CITES multilateral treaty
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 6, December 2022., 2022 Abstract The international wildlife trade presents severe conservation and environmental security risks, yet no international regulatory framework exists to monitor the trade of species not listed in the appendices of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). We explored the composition and dynamics of

The ancestral eutherian karyotype is present in Xenarthra. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2006 Molecular studies have led recently to the proposal of a new super-ordinal arrangement of the 18 extant Eutherian orders. From the four proposed super-orders, Afrotheria and Xenarthra were considered the most basal. Chromosome-painting studies with human

Novel 12S mtDNA findings in sloths (Pilosa, Folivora) and anteaters (Pilosa, Vermilingua) suggest a true case of long branch attraction [PDF]
, 2008 We sequenced 12S RNA mtDNA for the majority of the extant species of sloths and anteaters and compared our results with previous data obtained by our group using 16S RNA mtDNA in the same specimens and to GenBank sequences of the extinct giant sloth ...

Phylogenetic analysis of 16S mitochondrial DNA data in sloths and anteaters [PDF]
, 2003 We sequenced part of the 16S rRNA mitochondrial gene in 17 extant taxa of Pilosa (sloths and anteaters) and used these sequences along with GenBank sequences of both extant and extinct sloths to perform phylogenetic analysis based on parsimony, maximum ...
