Biometric Analysis of Giant and Large Murid Remains From Matja Kuru 2, Timor‐Leste

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Published research on Matja Kuru 2 (MK2) demonstrates its significance for understanding human lifestyle during the terminal Pleistocene and Holocene. Murids represent the most commonly identified taxa in the site, with specimens preliminarily classified as small, large and giant based on size comparisons.

Lessons from an eradication under multiple constraints of an island rat population of record density

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive rats threaten island biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and endangering native species. Although rat eradication has succeeded on many islands, tropical islands present unique management challenges. Strict regulations and financial constraints on some tropical islands further limit proven eradication methods, complicating rodent ...

Evolutionary Analysis of Transcriptional Regulation Mediated by Cdx2 in Rodents

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Our study (1) represented a first systematic analysis of species‐specific adaptation in the DNA binding pattern of transcription factor; (2) represented a first study of cis‐regulation between two reproductively isolated species by using a novel allodiploid system; (3) demonstrated a higher conservation of transcriptional output than that of DNA ...

Environmental DNA for invasive rat surveillance and biosecurity on islands

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We collected aquatic eDNA samples from beach and lake sites on three atoll islands with different invasion statuses before and after a rat eradication operation. Two dozen eDNA samples can confirm with ≥95% probability the presence of invasive rats prior to any management intervention. However, following the eradication operation, neither targeted eDNA

Waste reduction decreases rat activity from peri-urban environment.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Globally, species in the genus Rattus (specifically Rattus rattus and Rattus norvegicus), are some of the most influential invasive taxa due to their high rates of competitive exclusion and large dietary breadth. However, the specific foraging strategies

Introduced mona monkey Cercopithecus mona is a key predator of bird nests in the endemic‐rich Príncipe Island

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Bird communities in oceanic islands tend to evolve under reduced predation, making them extremely susceptible to introduced predators. Príncipe Island (São Tomé and Príncipe, Central Africa) harbors 11 endemic bird species and eight introduced mammal species.
