Demographic history of the Malayan tapirs (Tapirus indicus) in Southeast Asia
Malayan tapirs in Southeast Asia can be distinguished into 3 geographical groups, based on genetic structure analysis in 11 whole genomes. The effective population size (Ne) of tapirs shows a general decreasing trend, as suggested by the pairwise sequentially Markovian coalescent analysis, with population expansion or structuring during late Early ...

Systematic analysis of population studies performed with the ForenSeq™ DNA Signature Prep kit
Abstract Many forensic laboratories have conducted sequence‐based population studies to support the integration of massively parallel sequencing (MPS). However, the data remain limited concerning African populations. MPS enhances allelic representation compared to CE methods.

Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (

ABSTRACT We introduce a new software program, MaxTemp, that increases precision of the temporal method for estimating effective population size (Ne) in genetic monitoring programs, which are increasingly used to systematically track changes in global biodiversity.

Popfinder: A Highly Effective Artificial Neural Network Package for Genetic Population Assignment
ABSTRACT The ability to assign biological samples to source populations with high accuracy and precision based on genetic variation is important for numerous applications from ecological studies through wildlife conservation to epidemiology. However, population assignment when genetic differentiation is low is challenging, and methods to address this ...

ABSTRACT In the last three decades, DNA sequencing of ancient animal osteological assemblages has become an important tool complementing standard archaeozoological approaches to reconstruct the history of animal domestication. However, osteological assemblages of key archaeological contexts are not always available or do not necessarily preserve enough

CCS‐Consensuser: A Haplotype‐Aware Consensus Generator for PacBio Amplicon Sequences
ABSTRACT DNA sequencing technology has undergone substantial improvements in recent years, to the extent that Third Generation Sequencing platforms are capable of massively generating long‐reads. Amplicon sequencing has been among the most popular techniques due to its wide application in diverse fields of biological sciences.

ABSTRACT The bestRAD technique is a reduced genome representation approach with high‐capacity sample multiplexing and physical isolation of biotin‐labelled target DNA fragments using streptavidin beads, which should reduce total cost and genotyping errors. While we here formalise the relevance of this approach within the HTS landscape, our foremost aim

Integration of multi‐omics analyses reveals PDAP1 as one of the key regulators of longevity and aging. Mendelian randomization, colocalization, prospective studies, and in vitro experiments highlight PDAP1's effects on mortality, lifespan, and cellular senescence.

We developed a set of innovative landscape resistance models to identify how climatic, topographic and vegetation variables influenced gene flow in the iconic Australian platypus across a 300 km2 urbanised landscape. Our research identified topographic wetness, rainfall and vegetation cover as consistently important for maintaining landscape‐scale gene
