The era of reference genomes in conservation genomics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Progress in genome sequencing now enables the large-scale generation of reference genomes. Various international initiatives aim to generate reference genomes representing global biodiversity. These genomes provide unique ... -
Molecular identification and first demographic insights of sharks based on artisanal fisheries bycatch in the Pacific Coast of Colombia: implications for conservation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Pacific coast of Colombia is characterized by mangrove ecosystems which play a crucial role as possible nurseries for juvenile sharks. However, trophic food webs from coastal ecosystems are heavily disturbed by increased ... -
Taxonomic Identification of Two Poorly Known Lantern Shark Species Based on Mitochondrial DNA From Wet-Collection Paratypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Etmopteridae (lantern sharks) is the most species-rich family of sharks, comprising more than 50 species. Many species are described from few individuals, and re-collection of specimens is often hindered by the remoteness ... -
Simultaneous barcode sequencing of diverse museum collection specimens using a mixed RNA bait set
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)A growing number of publications presenting results from sequencing natural history collection specimens reflect the importance of DNA sequence information from such samples. Ancient DNA extraction and library preparation ... -
Trophic position of Otodus megalodon and great white sharks through time revealed by zinc isotopes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Diet is a crucial trait of an animal’s lifestyle and ecology. The trophic level of an organism indicates its functional position within an ecosystem and holds significance for its ecology and evolution. Here, we demonstrate ... -
Professional-Collector Collaboration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)This article introduces the first of what will ultimately be two collections of case studies in archaeologist–responsible/responsive artifact collector collaboration. Focused on the United States, the articles in this issue ... -
Metal-Detecting Rallies: Characterizing the Phenomenon, Understanding the Challenges, and Identifying Strategies for Heritage Protection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Hobby metal detectorists search for archaeological finds as individuals and within groups, the latter being the focus of this article. Such groups come together as “clubs” and “meetings,” but also as part of large, often ... -
Global raster dataset on historical coastline positions and shelf sea extents since the Last Glacial Maximum
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Motivation: Historical changes in sea level caused shifting coastlines that affected the distribution and evolution of marine and terrestrial biota. At the onset of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) 26 ka, sea levels were ... -
Directed endozoochorous dispersal by scavengers facilitate sexual reproduction in otherwise clonal plants at cadaver sites
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The regeneration niche of many plant species involves spatially and temporally unpredictable disturbances, called recruitment windows of opportunity. However, even species with clear dispersal adaptations such as fleshy ... -
Habitat Protection Approaches Facilitate Conservation of Overlooked Fungal Diversity–A Case Study From the Norwegian Coastal Heathland System
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)European coastal heathlands are distinct ecosystems shaped by land use tradition and they have experienced an 80% area reduction from their historical maximum. These mosaics of mires and wind exposed patches have ericaceous ... -
Commons, Associations, And Possibilities of egalitarian life in Paris, France
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this article I ask, at what level does the egalitarian life of the French Republic manifest itself? In what social spaces do people get to enjoy its slogan, Liberté, égalité, fraternité? I take these questions to be ... -
Ancient DNA reveals a southern presence of the Northeast Arctic cod during the Holocene
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Climate change has been implicated in an increased number of distributional shifts of marine species during the last century. Nonetheless, it is unclear whether earlier climatic fluctuations had similar impacts. We use ... -
An Introduction to Egalitarian Thought and Dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this introduction we approach egalitarianism as an upsetting force that in various ways has shaped much of modern, especially Western, human history. We outline philosophical trajectories from the Enlightenment onward; ... -
