A renewed glance at the Palearctic golden eagle: Genetic variation in space and time

Ecology and Evolution
Anthropogenic pressures on nature have been causing population declines for centuries. Intensified persecution of apex predators, like the golden eagle, resulted in population bottlenecks during the 19th and 20th centuries.

Complex taxonomy and global phylogeography of the well-known tropical earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus [PDF]

, 2018
Few earthworm species are peregrine and among them, Pontoscolex corethrurus is the most well-known. Probably native from the Guyana shield, this earthworm is nowadays distributed worldwide, in the tropical and sub-tropical zones.

Insights into the genetic diversity and species distribution of Oswaldocruzia nematodes (Trichostrongylida: Molineidae) in Europe: apparent absence of geographic and population structuring in amphibians

Parasite
The genus Oswaldocruzia represents a taxonomically diverse group of nematodes with global distribution. Although Oswaldocruzia species are widespread and exhibit a remarkably wide host range in some species, their genetic diversity and biogeographic ...

Phylogeography of Noah’s giant clam

Marine Biodiversity, 2017
Noah’s giant clam (Tridacna noae), recently resurrected from synonymy with T. maxima, occurs from Christmas Island to the Northern Line Islands and from the Ryukyu Islands to New Caledonia. We used mitochondrial and microsatellite markers to investigate the phylogeographic structure and demographic history of T. noae over most of its geographical range.

An Integrated Study of Ramie (Boehmeria nivea), and Its Wild, Cultivated, and Feral Forms

Ecology and Evolution
Feralization, the re‐establishment of wild populations from domesticated ancestors, can involve multiple parallel character reversions and potentially also rampant gene flow with cultivated and/or naturally wild material.
