Gene retrocopies arise from the reverse transcription and insertion into the genome of
processed mRNA transcripts. Although many retrocopies have acquired mutations that …

Although the domestic dog's origin is still unclear, this lineage is believed to have been
domesticated from an extinct population of gray wolves, which is expected to be more …

Expert elicitation can be valuable for informing decision‐makers on conservation and
wildlife management issues. To date, studies eliciting expert opinions have primarily …

Dingoes are culturally and ecologically important free-living canids whose ancestors arrived
in Australia over 3,000 BP, likely transported by seafaring people. However, the early history …
