Understanding how historical versus contemporary processes shape population genetic structure and diversity is important to design effective management actions for threatened species. We genotyped 1834 SNPs in 1120 individuals from 110 Scandinavian populations of the declining orchid Gymnadenia conopsea, in three different habitat types, to examine ...

No genetic differentiation among populations up to 300 km apart in three species of carrion beetles
Habitat fragmentation threatens biodiversity by disrupting gene flow; understanding species' dispersal abilities is key to determining whether they are limited by habitat or mobility. Carrion beetles show no significant population genetic structure across up to 320 km, indicating high dispersal ability and unrestricted gene flow.

Three Spodumene Reference Materials for Oxygen Isotope Measurement by Ion Microprobe
Key Points Three spodumene reference materials were developed for SIMS oxygen isotope measurement. All three materials are homogeneous in oxygen isotopes. Crystal orientation has no effect on instrumental mass fractionation. This study reports on the development of three spodumene reference materials referred to as Curtin University (CU) Tri‐1, Kun‐A‐1

Morphological differences between wild and game‐farm Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) in North America
Large‐scale releases of domesticated, game‐farm Mallards Anas platyrhynchos to supplement wild populations have resulted in widespread introgressive hybridization that changed the genetic constitution of wild populations in eastern North America.

The Mahoenui giant wētā is an Aotearoa New Zealand endemic insect of conservation concern, having been extirpated from the majority of its natural range before rediscovery in the 1960s. We assess the genetic impacts of a translocation from the remaining population in the Mahoenui Giant Wētā Scientific Reserve to establish a new population on Mahurangi ...

Summary Background and Objectives To examine whether changes in the Mediterranean Diet (MD) or any of its MD food groups modulate the genetic susceptibility to obesity in European youth, both in cross‐sectional and longitudinal analyses. Methods For cross‐sectional analysis, 1982 participants at baseline, 1649 in follow‐up 1 (FU1) and 1907 in follow‐up

ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is advancing continuously. However, full delegation to an AI application is often not possible or desirable due to technical limitations, ethical concerns or legal issues. Augmented intelligence systems, where humans and AI work together jointly, have been proposed to improve decision making in complex, uncertain ...

ABSTRACT Swedish Warmblood horses (SWB) are bred for show jumping and/or dressage with young horse test scores as indicator traits. This study aimed to investigate possible candidate genes and regions of importance for evaluated and linearly scored young horse test traits.

ABSTRACT The aims of the present study were to perform single‐step genomic predictions in the dual‐purpose German Black Pied cattle (DSN) breed considering a DSN specific SNP chip (DSN_200 K), and to use the corresponding estimated breeding values (EBV) in ongoing optimum genetic contribution (OGC) selection.
