Complete Mitochondrial Genomes Provide Evidence of a Killer Whale Refugium Off the Coast of Japan During the Last Glacial Maximum

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim During glacial periods, highly mobile species often shifted to warmer, ice‐free regions known as refugia, which frequently maintained higher genetic diversity than newly colonised areas after glacial retreat. We analyse complete mitogenome sequences from 11 killer whale samples in Nemuro Strait to test the hypothesis that waters around ...

Discrimination Factor of Sulphur Stable Isotope Ratios Between Pregnant Fin Whales and Their Foetuses

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 14, 30 July 2025.
Abstract Rationale In‐utero synthesised tissues of mammals have often been used to infer maternal behaviour during gestation. Differences in δ15N or δ13C values between foetal and maternal tissues (foetus–mother discrimination factors) are well established, but they remain uncertain for δ34S values.
