A post‐translocation genetic analysis of an endemic wingless grasshopper in urban environments

Conservation Science and Practice
Translocation is a core conservation strategy, yet the outcomes of invertebrate translocations are often poorly documented due to the small size and limited mobility of invertebrates.

Wildlife health risk analysis for conservation translocation: A scalable approach illustrated for wader population restoration

Conservation Science and Practice
Conservation translocations are human‐mediated movements of wildlife for conservation purposes. They risk compromising the health of wildlife, and potentially domestic animals and humans, in the short and long term, but these risks vary with project ...

Saving the Last West African Giraffe Population: A Review of Its Conservation Status and Management

Animals
The West African giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis peralta) was historically spread across much of the Sudano-Sahelian zone but is now restricted to Niger. Several factors resulted in their dramatic decline during the late 20th century.

Conserved 5-methyluridine tRNA modification modulates ribosome translocation

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
While the centrality of posttranscriptional modifications to RNA biology has long been acknowledged, the function of the vast majority of modified sites remains to be discovered. Illustrative of this, there is not yet a discrete biological role assigned for one of the most highly conserved modifications, 5-methyluridine at position
