Leveraging Synteny to Generate Reference Genomes for Conservation: Assembling the Genomes of Hector's and Māui Dolphins

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Escalating concern regarding the impacts of reduced genetic diversity on the conservation of endangered species has spurred efforts to obtain chromosome‐level genomes through consortia such as the Vertebrate Genomes Project. However, assembling reference genomes for many threatened species remains challenging due to difficulties obtaining ...

An enrichment‐based capture method from nuclear environmental DNA presents new opportunities for population genomics: A case study on the common frog

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Population genetics is a powerful tool for studying evolutionary processes and informing conservation biology. Traditional approaches typically rely on tissue sampling, which poses challenges in aquatic environments where specimen collection is often difficult.

CEPHALOPOD, a package to standardize marine habitat‐modelling practices and enhance inter‐comparability across biological observations

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract As the volume of accessible marine pelagic observations increases exponentially, incorporating diverse data types such as metagenomics and quantitative imaging, the need for standardized modelling frameworks becomes critical to predict biogeographic patterns in space and time and across the diverse range of emergent sampling methods.

Trending extinctions: online interest in recently extinct animals

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
When species go extinct, online interest spikes but often fades quickly. We analysed how online attention shifts before and after extinction announcements of eight species and found that there are brief spikes of interest on Twitter, while Wikipedia shows more prolonged engagement.

Opposite effects of climate and land‐use/cover change on Mediterranean herpetofauna: Insights from the southern Apennines

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Climate change (CC) and land‐use/cover change (LUCC) are threatening species worldwide, with amphibians and reptiles being particularly vulnerable. In Cilento, a highly biodiverse Mediterranean area in the southern Appenine protected by a National Park and 30 Natura 2000 Network sites, 11 amphibians and 16 reptiles could disappear in the future ...
