The mitochondrial genome of the black-tailed dusky antechinus (Antechinus arktos)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this study, we report the mitochondrial genome of the black-tailed antechinus (Antechinus arktos), a recently-discovered, endangered carnivorous marsupial inhabiting a caldera that straddles the border of Australia’s mid-east coast.

Identification of a novel antisense noncoding RNA, ALID, transcribed from the putative imprinting control region of marsupial IGF2R

Epigenetics & Chromatin, 2018
Background Genomic imprinting leads to maternal expression of IGF2R in both mouse and opossum. In mouse, the antisense long noncoding (lnc) RNA Airn, which is paternally expressed from the differentially methylated region (DMR) in the second intron of ...

Exploring Trypanosoma cruzi transmission dynamics in an acute Chagas disease outbreak using next-generation sequencing

Parasites & Vectors
Background Chagas disease (CD), caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, poses a major global public health challenge. Although vector-borne transmission is the primary mode of infection, oral transmission is increasingly concerning. Methods This study utilized long-

Vicariant speciation resulting from biogeographic barriers in the Australian tropics: The case of the red‐cheeked dunnart (Sminthopsis virginiae)

Ecology and Evolution
Global biodiversity loss continues unabated, and in Australia, the rate of recent mammal extinctions is among the worst in the world. Meanwhile, the diversity among and within many endemic mammal species remains undescribed.

De novo transcriptome assembly and genome annotation of the fat-tailed dunnart (Sminthopsis crassicaudata)

GigaByte
Marsupials exhibit distinctive modes of reproduction and early development that set them apart from their eutherian counterparts and render them invaluable for comparative studies.
