The present study determined nuclear and mitochondrial (mtDNA) levels of genetic
variability and phylogeographic patterns in breeding populations of Roseate Spoonbill (N …

The determination of genetic parameters for most waterbird populations presents
considerable challenges because these species frequently breed in inaccessible locations …

Background DNA-based studies have demonstrated that avian genetic mating systems vary
widely, with many species deviating from long-assumed monogamy by practicing extra-pair …

The present study inferred the genetic mating system in a natural breeding population of the
Jabiru Stork (Jabiru mycteria), a Neotropical wading bird considered endangered in part of …

Abstract The White Stork (Ciconia ciconia) has an extensive European breeding distribution.
There have been significant demographic changes since the 1930s, with country-specific …

The Japanese crested ibis Nipponia nippon is a critically threatened bird. We assessed
genetic diversity and structure in the Sado captive population of the Japanese crested ibis …

Suspicious hybrids of painted storks and milky storks were found in a Malaysian zoo. Blood
of these birds was sampled on FTA cards for DNA fingerprinting. Of 44 optimized primers, 6 …

Following FIASCO protocol and across-amplification approach, we present eleven
microsatellite primers of the Oriental White stork, Ciconia boyciana in this article. All loci …

Waterbirds are increasingly affected by climate change and human disturbances to the
wetlands on which they roost, forage and breed. The evolutionary response of populations …

Captive propagation and reintroduction are the major steps in the ex-situ conservation of
locally extirpated endangered species in a historical region. In a species restoration project …
