Preserved collagen reveals species identity in archaeological marine turtle bones from Caribbean and Florida sites [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Advancements in molecular science are continually improving our knowledge of marine turtle biology and evolution. However, there are still considerable gaps in our understanding, such as past marine turtle distributions, which can benefit from advanced ...

The impact of environmental factors on marine turtle stranding rates. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Globally, tropical and subtropical regions have experienced an increased frequency and intensity in extreme weather events, ranging from severe drought to protracted rain depressions and cyclones, these coincided with an increased number of marine ...

Molecular characterization of a marine turtle tumor epizootic, profiling external, internal and postsurgical regrowth tumors [PDF]
Communications Biology, 2021 Yetsko, Farrell, Duffy, and colleagues conduct transcriptomic and immunohistological profiling of tumors from sea turtles with fibropapillomatosis. Internal tumors are distinct from more common external tumors, but share some oncogenic signaling pathways

Asmodochelys parhami, a new fossil marine turtle from the Campanian Demopolis Chalk and the stratigraphic congruence of competing marine turtle phylogenies. [PDF]
R Soc Open Sci, 2019 Resolving the phylogeny of sea turtles is uniquely challenging given the high potential for the unification of convergent lineages due to systematic homoplasy. Equivocal reconstructions of marine turtle evolution subsequently inhibit efforts to establish

Advances in the Application of Genetics in Marine Turtle Biology and Conservation
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017 Marine turtles migrate across long distances, exhibit complex life histories, and occupy habitats that are difficult to observe. These factors present substantial challenges to understanding fundamental aspects of their biology or assessing human impacts,

Phylogeny, biogeography and methodology: a meta-analytic perspective on heterogeneity in adult marine turtle survival rates. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 Comparative syntheses of key demographic parameters are critical not only for identifying data gaps, but also for evaluating sources of heterogeneity among estimates.
