Development of Microsatellite Markers for Ex Situ Management of the Harpy Eagle Using Next Generation Sequencing

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Harpy Eagle (Harpia harpyja), one of the largest birds of prey in the world, is threatened with extinction throughout its entire area of occurrence in the Neotropics. While conservation efforts for the wild populations are crucial, it is also important to focus on ex situ conservation actions.

Differential admixture and introgression in Cerasus hybrid zones at the south rear edge of cool‐temperate C. sargentii and the north leading edge of temperate C. leveilleana

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
Hybrid zones at the north leading edge of temperate species, at the south rear edge of cool‐temperate species, and the core of their ranges were investigated. The results imply that genetic admixture and phenotypic introgression have been facilitated, except for the latter in traits contributing to reproductive isolation, in the hybrid zone at the ...

Genetic origins and climate‐induced erosion in economically important Asian walnuts

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The global climate is undergoing unprecedented changes, posing significant threats to species persistence. However, the spatiotemporal impacts on genetic diversity remain poorly understood, hindering species conservation and management. Walnuts, generally referred to as Juglans regia and J. sigillata, are economically vital in Asia, but little

Delipidisation of wool fibres and the subsequent beneficial properties of delipidised wool fibres

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wool fibres are complex matrices of proteins and fatty acids/lipids found both internally and externally. 18‐methyleicosanoic acid (18‐MEA) is covalently bound to the surface of the fibre via a thio‐ester link, and is considered one of the most important lipids as it is responsible for the hydrophobic properties of wool fibres.
