Genomic data from species of the cat family Felidae promise to stimulate veterinary and
human medical advances, and clarify the coherence of genome organization. We describe …

Southeast Asia has emerged as an important region for understanding hominin and
mammalian migrations and extinctions. High-profile discoveries have shown that Southeast …

Ancient DNA research has been revolutionized following development of next-generation
sequencing platforms. Although a number of such platforms have been applied to ancient …

Islands have long been recognized as distinctive evolutionary arenas leading to
morphologically divergent species, such as dwarfs and giants. We assessed how body size …

Deforestation and poaching in Southeast Asia have driven a stark decline in the region's
apex predators, including large felids like tigers and leopards. Meanwhile, some small felids …

Even in the genomics era, the phylogeny of Neotropical small felids comprised in the genus
Leopardus remains contentious. We used whole-genome resequencing data to construct a …

Southeast (SE) Asia is 1 of the most biodiverse regions in the world, and it holds
approximately 20% of all mammal species. Despite this, the majority of SE Asia's genetic …

Abstract The Leopard cat Prionailurus bengalensis is a habitat generalist that is widely
distributed across Southeast Asia. Based on morphological traits, this species has been …

The hog deer (Axis porcinus) is threatened by habitat alteration, fragmentation, and
poaching, which have led to a drastic decline of its wild population. Two subspecies of A …

Sampling genetic material from rare and often secretive mammals can be difficult in
challenging environments such as tropical rainforests. Large‐scale sampling is important …
