Sedimentary Metagenomics Reveal Avian Community Transitions From the Last Glacial Maximum to the Holocene

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
We used sedimentary ancient DNA shotgun metagenomics to reconstruct past bird communities in northern high‐latitude environments. By using long time series and data collected across a large environmental gradient, we contributed in a unique and explorative way to the understanding of palaeoecological dynamics between birds and their habitat on the ...

Structural instability and concerted evolution in the mitochondrial control region of the grey‐headed lapwing Vanellus cinereus during range expansion

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 2, March 2026.
Mitochondrial genome duplications, particularly within the control region, can influence evolutionary trajectories and population structure, yet their prevalence and dynamics in birds remain insufficiently understood. The rey‐headed lapwing Vanellus cinereus has recently undergone a rapid range expansion in Japan, providing a unique opportunity to ...

A Ground Surface Rolling Method for Detecting Environmental DNA of Terrestrial Animals

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
The Koro‐rin sampler enables surface‐based eDNA detection of terrestrial animals. This approach captured a broad range of bird and mammal taxa, including small and cryptic species, and revealed seasonal patterns in animal presence, complementing conventional monitoring methods.
