Mercury content in the Siberian tiger (Panthera tigris altaica Temminck, 1844) from the coastal and inland areas of the Russia [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2021
Being a global pollutant, mercury can originate from both natural as well as anthropogenic sources. Coastal marine atmospheric fog is considered a potential source of ocean-derived monomethylmercury (MMHg) to coastal terrestrial ecosystems.

Assessment of High Throughput Sequencing Quality of Host DNA Enriched From Faeces: A Case From Captive Tiger. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Faeces serve as a widely used non‐invasive material in wildlife studies, from which host DNA can be enriched for high‐throughput sequencing. However, the characteristics of faecal DNA sequencing, particularly the relationship between sequencing volume and genotyping accuracy or genomic coverage, have remained unclear.
