Identification of Birds through DNA Barcodes [PDF]
, 2004 Short DNA sequences from a standardized region of the genome provide a DNA barcode for identifying species. Compiling a public library of DNA barcodes linked to named specimens could provide a new master key for identifying species, one whose power will ...

Advanced Theory and Simulations, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2025.The seal louse Echinophthirius horridus has uniquely shaped setae that may reduce drag during its host's dives. Using numerical simulations, this study demonstrates that their natural inclination promotes vortex formation, minimizing friction and energy loss. These findings provide insights into biological surface adaptations and may inspire the design

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.We present a novel method for extracting eDNA from whole bird nests and a LNA blocking oligonucleotide designed to reduce metabarcoding reads from nest building sparrows. Metabarcoding of 22 nests from a montane sagebrush steppe ecosystem detected 126 species, primarily insects, including putative diet items, ectoparasites, and confirmed nest predators.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.Notoptera, a singular ancient insect lineage, is vital for exploring insect environmental adaptation, evolution, and its geological history link, recognized as a national first‐class protected animal. Comparing environmental adaptation genes in Galloisiana sinensis and Grylloprimevala jilina, closely related yet habitat‐disparate species, illuminates ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.This study examined the effects of forest operations on soil microarthropod biodiversity and litter decomposition in temperate beech forests, comparing disturbed and undisturbed soils across different harvesting timelines. While litter decomposition remained unaffected, significant soil disturbances were found in areas impacted by machine passage, with

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.First reported gene rearrangements in plecopteran mitogenomes. The monophyly of the subfamily Acroneuriinae and the phylogenetic relationships among tribes within this subfamily are still controversial. ABSTRACT Perlidae represents one of the most diverse and ecologically important groups within the order Plecoptera.
