ABSTRACT The reduced genetic diversity and frequent inbreeding associated with small population size may underpin the accumulation and expression of deleterious mutations (mutation load) in some declining populations. However, demographic perturbations and inbreeding coupled with purifying selection can also purge declining populations of deleterious ...

This ancient DNA study is the first to confirm the presence of Crocidura leucodon in Denmark, and the first recorded presence of any member of the genus in this region in prehistoric times. Abstract An excavation of an Early Iron Age village near Aalborg in Denmark uncovered the jaws and skull fragments from a small mammal that were morphologically ...

Recurrent gene flow events occurred during the diversification of clownfishes of the skunk complex
Abstract Clownfish (subfamily Amphiprioninae) are an iconic group of coral reef fish that evolved a mutualistic interaction with sea anemones, which triggered the adaptive radiation of the clade. Within clownfishes, the “skunk complex” is particularly interesting.

Generating small mammals mitogenome reference dataset for Malaysian species [PDF]
Malaysia’s biological diversity is among the richest in the world but rapidly declining due to various human activities and climate change. Despite the continuous loss in biodiversity with the most recent death of our last Sumatran Rhino in May 2019 ...
