Humble beginnings of the Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus): A century‐old mystery solved

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The Australian giant wood moth (Endoxyla cinereus) feeds within the galls of scale insects (Apiomorpha) before transitioning into its wood‐boring eucalypt larval phase. This transitionary phase may be key to its multi‐year development, at the end of which it can produce over 100 000 eggs.

The First Mitochondrial Genome of an Odonata Endemic to South America, Chalcopteryx rutilans (Rambur, 1842) (Odonata: Polythoridae), and Its Implications for the Phylogeny of the Zygoptera

Diversity, 2023
Chalcopteryx rutilans Rambur, 1842 (Polythoridae, Odonata) is a species widely distributed in central Amazonia. Due to its sensitivity to environmental changes, it is a bioindicator species used to evaluate the environmental conditions of streams in ...

Analyses of Wild Ungulates Mitogenome [PDF]

, 2021
In the last two decades, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has become one of the most used genetic markers for studying evolution and phylogeny. Understanding mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) structure, gene arrangements, base compositions and noncoding regions

Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Mitochondrial genome of Bolanusoides shaanxiensis (Cicadellidae: Typhlocybinae: Typhlocybini), with its phylogenetic analysis

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The mitochondrial genome of one leafhopper species Bolanusoides shaanxiensis was sequenced and annotated. The mitogenome is 15,724 bp in length, containing 37 typical genes and a control region. The A + T content of the whole mitogenome is 78.9%. Most of

Captive Breeding of the Chinese Alligator Reduces Inbreeding but Increases Genetic Load

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Captive breeding of the Chinese alligator successfully reduced genomic inbreeding but increased the burden of deleterious mutations. Genomic analyses indicate that managing both genetic diversity and genetic load is essential for the long‐term conservation of this critically endangered species.

From fluke to fragment: A multifaceted method for molecular sex identification and mitochondrial haplotyping from environmental DNA samples

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses have become a powerful tool for non‐invasive biodiversity monitoring, yet the applicability of population‐genetic approaches to environmental samples remains largely unexplored. Even when genetic traces originate from a single individual, low target DNA concentrations and amplification or sequencing artefacts ...
