Gut microbial communities of hybridising pygmy angelfishes reflect species boundaries
Hybridisation and introgression of eukaryotic genomes can generate new species or subsume existing ones, with direct and indirect consequences for biodiversity.

Trace DNA Sampling Success from Evidence Items Commonly Encountered in Forensic Casework
Trace DNA analysis is a significant part of a forensic laboratory's workload. Knowing optimal sampling strategies and item success rates for particular item types can assist in evidence selection and examination processes and shorten turnaround times. In

Evaluation of soaking to recover trace DNA from fired cartridge cases
The recovery of trace DNA from cartridge cases is of common interest across many jurisdictions. Soaking offers improved profiling success rates over traditional methods. We evaluated the effects of firing, calibre, and metal composition on controlled and

Performance of Different Cotton and Nylon Swabs on DNA Recovery and Storage
Touch DNA samples are routine yet challenging pieces of evidence that provide investigators with information that helps them solve crimes. However, this type of evidence can be easily lost if the correct collection method is not used.

Tracing and tracking epiallele families in complex DNA populations [PDF]
Abstract DNA methylation is a stable epigenetic modification, extremely polymorphic and driven by stochastic and deterministic events. Most of the current techniques used to analyse methylated sequences identify methylated cytosines (mCpGs) at a single-nucleotide level and compute the average methylation of CpGs in the population of ...

Rapid range shifts and megafaunal extinctions associated with late Pleistocene climate change
The impact of late Pleistocene climate change on ecosystems has been hard to assess. Here, the authors sequence ancient DNA from Hall’s Cave, Texas and find that both plant and vertebrate diversity decreased with cooling, and though plant diversity ...
