From field to lab, facilitating non‐invasive genetic survey. Lessons from an arctic bird living at the edge, the rock ptarmigan in the French Alps

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta is an elusive species whose monitoring is hindered by its cryptic behavior and the difficulty in accessing its high‐elevation habitats. Although non‐invasive genetic sampling offers a promising alternative, its effectiveness can be constrained by DNA degradation and environmental conditions.

Museomics Deciphers the Phylogeographic Differentiation and Conservation Status of a Montane Pheasant

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Museum specimens provide a rich source of historical DNA, enabling insights into phylogenetic relationships and demographic history of the endangered Koklass Pheasant. Our findings uncovered a previously unrecognized population in Guizhou province and highlighted elevated extinction risk in populations from Anhui province and Southern China, informing ...

Genomic Investigations Unveil the Genetic Underpinnings of Environmental Adaptation in African Goat Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study integrates genomics and landscape genetics to analyze African goat environmental adaptation. Analyzing 1591 samples, it finds population structure differentiates geographically into four groups, with gene flow between wild Yura goats and North Africans.

Saving Water to Survive: Alternative Water Loss Strategies Could Explain Color Polymorphism Maintenance in a Lacertid Lizard

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that red male Podarcis muralis exhibit higher evaporative water loss compared to other morphs, indicating a physiological strategy that prioritizes hydroregulation over fine thermoregulation. This suggests red morphs are adapted to cooler, wetter niches, while white and yellow morphs possess superior water conservation mechanisms to ...
