Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 16, Issue 5, Page 1173-1188, September 2016., 2016 Abstract Here, we present a set of RNA‐based probes for whole mitochondrial genome in‐solution enrichment, targeting a diversity of mammalian mitogenomes. This probes set was designed from seven mammalian orders and tested to determine the utility for enriching degraded DNA.

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil
Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic
