Deciphering transcriptome complexity via long‐read sequencing

iMeta, EarlyView.
Long‐read sequencing is transforming transcriptomics from gene‐level quantification to isoform‐resolved interpretation by directly resolving full‐length transcript structures, transcription in repetitive regions, and linked molecular features. This review provides an end‐to‐end roadmap covering sequencing platforms, library preparation strategies ...

Recent wolf hunting and trapping in the Great Lakes region of the United States

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We analyzed wolf hunting and trapping seasons in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan (2012–2014, 2021) to assess harvest patterns, method effectiveness, and links to livestock depredations. Harvest outcomes were driven by regulations and methods, did not appear to cause long‐term population declines, and showed no consistent relationships with reduced ...
