Safeguarding a Flagship Species: Integrated Surveillance of Cross‐Species Pathogen Transmission in Giant Panda Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Emerging infectious diseases increasingly threaten giant pandas and cohabiting species. This review analyzes pathogen transmission risks from domestic animals, wildlife, and vectors and proposes an integrated genomic surveillance framework for early warning and biodiversity conservation.

Evolutionary History of the Adult β‐Globin Gene in Wild Sheep: First Sequences From the Argali (Ovis ammon) and the Urial (Ovis vignei)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study addresses a key gap in the understanding of molecular adaptation by providing the first complete adult β‐globin gene sequences for two ecologically significant wild sheep species, the Argali (Ovis ammon) and the Urial (Ovis vignei). ABSTRACT The β‐globin gene cluster is a key model for studying molecular adaptation and gene family evolution ...

A wildlife corridor site selection method based on the habitat suitability assessment of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Global Ecology and Conservation
The development of transportation infrastructure disrupts wildlife movement, leading to habitat fragmentation and roadkill. While the establishment of wildlife corridors is a global strategy to mitigate these impacts, research on the intersections ...

To be or Not to be Hybrids? A Case‐Study in an Allochthonous Population Involving Illegal Introductions of the Endangered Golden‐Headed and Golden Lion Tamarins

American Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 1, January 2026.
Genetic analyses of an allochthonous population of Leontopithecus, illegally introduced into an area of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest in Rio de Janeiro, did not detect signs of hybridization. This data provides crucial information to support conservation efforts and prevent new threats to the endangered lion tamarins. ABSTRACT Allochthonous species can

Cardiac adaptive mechanisms of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) at high altitudes

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2012
Abstract Objective—To identify cardiac mechanisms that contribute to adaptation to high altitudes in Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii). Animals—9 male Tibetan antelope and 10 male Tibetan sheep (Ovis aries). Procedures—Tibetan antelope and Tibetan sheep inhabiting a region with an altitude of 4,300 m were captured, and several cardiac variables ...

Drivers of plant phenolic concentration across global drylands

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study advances the understanding of how biotic and abiotic stressors shape plant defence strategies in global drylands. The findings shed novel insights about how plant secondary metabolites and their associated functions shift in response to changes in climate and grazing pressure, two key global change drivers with significant implications for ...

Shift of maternal gut microbiome of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) during the perinatal period

bioRxiv, 2020
The maternal gut microbiome can influence and be affected by the substantial physiological changes taking place during the perinatal period. However, little information is known about the changes in the maternal gut microbiome during this period. Tibetan

Biological and Biologically Inspired Functional Nanostructures: Insights into Structural, Optical, Thermal, and Sensing Applications

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 51, December 23, 2025.
Biological and biologically‐inspired functional nanostructures with structural, thermal, optical, and sensing applications are reviewed. The role of nanoscale features in biological materials on performance is described, and their blueprints are used for bio‐inspired nanomaterials, synthesized using advanced techniques (i.e., photolithography, bio ...
