Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study presents the first GC‐MS–based analyses of wide horizontal rim vessels with well‐defined funerary contexts, from Middle Bronze Age Portugal (Quinta do Amorim 2 and Pego). Organic residues from two vessels revealed ruminant fats and plant oils, alongside molecular markers of heat exposure.

High Expression of Endogenous Retroviral Envelope Gene in the Equine Fetal Part of the Placenta. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are proviral phases of exogenous retroviruses that have co-evolved with vertebrate genomes for millions of years. Previous studies have identified the envelope (env) protein genes of retroviral origin preferentially ...

A Gnawing Question: How Do Caribou and Other Arctic Mammals Exploit Shared Bone Resources?
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Bones of dead animals are consumed by many species, yet the partitioning of this resource, and the associated ecological and evolutionary implications, remains poorly understood. Using bone modification features found on shed female caribou (Rangifer tarandus) antlers and skeletal bones lying on caribou calving grounds of the Arctic National Wildlife ...

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2025.Abstract The introduction of non‐native species into new environments can cause significant ecological harm and is considered a major conservation threat. As populations of invasive species continue to establish and increase across the globe, novel methods can provide new insights into their biology and potentially aid in management.

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Argali, also known as wild sheep (Ovis ammon), is a prominent alpine mammal found in Central Asia. It is of conservation concern globally and domestically in China. Our study aims to unveil the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships among argali populations in China using the mitochondrial cytochrome b (Cytb) and control region (CR) sequences.
