Individual Identification of Prey in Carnivore Scats

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Noninvasive genetic sampling is widely used in ecology and conservation to identify predators and their diets but recovering individual‐level information from consumed prey remains largely unexplored. We evaluated whether individual prey can be reliably genotyped from carnivore scats and assessed limitations associated with degraded and mixed ...

A Practical Framework for GT‐Seq Panel Optimization

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Genotyping‐in‐thousands by sequencing (GT‐seq) panels are powerful tools in ecological, evolutionary and conservation genomics, yet the optimization process critical for robust and reproducible genotyping remains poorly formalized. Here, we present an iterative workflow for GT‐seq panel optimization that emphasizes systematic refinement ...

ELECTROCUTION OF AN ADULT WHITE-TAILED DEER

, 2005
On 16 May 2002, an adult female white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) died after becoming entangled in an electric fence in southeast Minnesota. The deer (#393) was captured 30 January 2000 as part of a cooperative, long-term deer mortality study ...

ASIP Variants in Livestock: It's Not Black and White

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fur and feather pigmentation play an important role in the survival and reproduction of many species, as well as in selective breeding and agriculture. The synthesis of pigment molecules, eumelanin and pheomelanin, is partially regulated by the agouti signalling protein (ASIP) encoded by the ASIP gene.

Long‐term demography and spatial genetic structure reveal mechanisms of Sassafras albidum population persistence through clonality

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Premise Vegetative regeneration is a key mechanism of woody plant persistence in forest ecosystems, and the coupled roles of basal sprouting and clonal growth in shaping long‐term population dynamics have been understudied. Basal sprouting replaces stems at fixed ramet locations, whereas clonal growth via root suckering produces spatially ...

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Installation, repair, retrieval, and economic returns of S3DI systems in corn and cotton rotations

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract The use of shallow subsurface drip irrigation (S3DI) systems in row crops can be economically favorable, provided the system remains in the field without major repairs for a substantial period. This research documents installation, repairs, retrieval, and partial economic returns of S3DI systems in service for 4, 5, 6, and 8 years.

Using information theory to select spatial scales for species–habitat responses with camera traps

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 4, June 2026.
Abstract Widespread anthropogenic landscape change, particularly from energy development, has fundamentally reshaped ecosystems, and understanding species responses remains a central ecological challenge. Remote camera traps are widely used to estimate mammal abundance and distribution, but inferring species–habitat relationships from these data is ...
