Postglacial Recolonization of the Southern Ocean by Elephant Seals Occurred From Multiple Glacial Refugia

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 3, March 2025.
Genetic data, alongside historic, archaeological, and subfossil remains, show that Australasian populations of the southern elephant seal have been shaped by range expansions and contractions following the Last Glacial Maximum, with subsequent contractions during the late Holocene. These expansion and contraction events are likely to have been a direct

DNA polymorphism in loci associated with the adaptation of barley to environmental conditions, when comparing seed samples from archaeological excavations of the 12th century with the VIR collection accessions of different geographical origin

Биотехнология и селекция растений
When studying the DNA polymorphism of ancient seeds from archaeological excavations, and comparing them with modern ones, it is possible, depending on the evolutionary significance/neutrality of the identified differences, to either find traces of ...

Paleogenetic study on the 17th century Korean mummy with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

PLOS ONE, 2017
While atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is known to be common among modern people exposed to various risk factors, recent paleopathological studies have shown that it affected ancient populations much more frequently than expected. In 2010, we investigated a 17th century Korean female mummy with presumptive ASCVD signs.

Dentition of the Mugharet El'Aliya Fossil Human Maxilla, Morocco

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 186, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Objective This study follows up on our recent morphological analysis of the juvenile maxilla from Mugharet el'Aliya, Morocco. Although this specimen shows a reportedly archaic morphology, likely due to its large size, 3D shape analyses indicated affinities with early Homo sapiens. Here, we conducted an in‐depth comparative investigation of the

Analysis of COI and ITS2 regions of DNA obtained from Paragonimus westermani eggs in ancient coprolites on Joseon dynasty mummies

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2019
The genetic information of ancient Paragonimus westermani, the oriental lung fluke infecting over 20 million people worldwide, has not been thoroughly investigated thus far. We analysed genetic markers (COI and ITS2) of P.

Frontiers in Environmental Archaeology
During the Late Mousterian period Apulia (southeastern Italy) was characterized by frequent and prolonged aridity that could have caused the scarcity of vegetable foods and, consequently, a lack of important nutritional compounds.
