A novel gammapolyomavirus in a great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo). [PDF]
Arch Virol, 2022 AbstractIn this study, the complete genome of a novel polyomavirus detected in a great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) was characterized. The 5133-bp-long genome of the cormorant polyomavirus has a genomic structure typical of members of the genus Gammapolyomavirus, family Polyomaviridae, containing open reading frames encoding the large and small ...

Local Heterozygosity Effects on Nestling Growth and Condition in the Great Cormorant. [PDF]
Evol Biol, 2015 Under inbreeding, heterozygosity at neutral genetic markers is likely to reflect genome-wide heterozygosity and, thus, is expected to correlate with fitness. There is, however, growing evidence that some of heterozygosity-fitness correlations (HFCs) can be explained by 'local effects', where noncoding loci are at linkage disequilibrium with functional ...
