Vocalization Analyses of Nocturnal Arboreal Mammals of the Taita Hills, Kenya [PDF]

open access: yesDiversity, 2020
Three poorly known nocturnal mammal species from the montane forests of the Taita Hills in Kenya, were studied via vocalization analysis. Here, their acoustic behaviour is described.

A population genetics perspective on the evolutionary histories of three clonal, endemic, and dominant grass species of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau: Orinus (Poaceae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
We performed analyses of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) in order to characterize the evolutionary history of Orinus according to its population genetic structure, as well as to investigate putative hybrid origins of O.

Acrocephalus orinus: A Case of Mistaken Identity

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Recent discovery of the Large-billed Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus orinus) in museums and in the wild significantly expanded our knowledge of its morphological traits and genetic variability, and revealed new data on geographical distribution of the ...

The Large-billed Reed Warbler Acrocephalus orinus revisited [PDF]

open access: yesIbis, 2002
The Large-billed Reed Warbler Acrocephalus orinus is known only from the type specimen, collected in Himachal Pradesh, India, in 1867. The specimen is poorly prepared, and it has been suggested that it could represent an isolated form of the Clamorous ...

Transcription factors in Orinus: novel insights into transcription regulation for speciation adaptation on the Qinghai-Xizang (Tibet) Plateau

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology
Background Transcription factors (TFs) are crucial regulators of plant growth, development, and resistance to environmental stresses. However, comprehensive understanding of the roles of TFs in speciation of Orinus, an extreme-habitat plant on the ...

Plastid phylogenomics and morphological character evolution of Chloridoideae (Poaceae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Chloridoideae is one of the largest subfamilies of Poaceae, containing many species of great economic and ecological value; however, phylogenetic relationships among the subtribes and genera of Cynodonteae are controversial.

Comparative Plastomes and Phylogenetic Analysis of Cleistogenes and Closely Related Genera (Poaceae)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Cleistogenes (Orininae, Cynodonteae, Chloridoideae, Poaceae) is an ecologically important genus. The phylogenetic placement of Cleistogenes and phylogenetic relationships among Cleistogenes taxa remain controversial for a long time. To resolve the intra-

Population genetic structure and evolutionary history of Psammochloa villosa (Trin.) Bor (Poaceae) revealed by AFLP marker

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 15, Page 10258-10276, August 2021., 2021
1. There is abundant genetic diversity in Psammochloa villosa, but limited gene flow. 2. Within P. villosa, there is limited but noteworthy geographic structuring of populations, of which 64.2% show significant genetic variation. 3. The species experienced continuous range contraction since the last interglacial period, and the dry and cold climates ...

A rare study from the wintering grounds provides insight into the costs of malaria infection for migratory birds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Malaria parasites can have strong effects on the population dynamics and evolution of migratory bird species. In many species, parasite transmission occurs on the wintering grounds, but studies to determine the consequences of infection have taken place ...

A genome assembly for Orinus kokonorica provides insights into the origin, adaptive evolution and further diversification of two closely related grass genera

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Ancient whole-genome duplication (WGD) or polyploidization is prevalent in plants and has played a crucial role in plant adaptation. However, the underlying genomic basis of ecological adaptation and subsequent diversification after WGD are still poorly ...
