Schweizer,Olaf Thalmann,Olaf Thalmann,Pedro Silva,Zhenxin Fan,Andrey A. Yurchenko,Pavel Dobrynin,Alexey I. Makunin,James A.

Wayne +27 more
TL;DR: Using morphologic data, a striking morphologic similarity between East African and Eurasian golden jackals is demonstrated, suggesting parallelism, which may have misled taxonomists and likely reflects uniquely intense interspecific competition in the East African carnivore guild.
Journal ArticleDOI
The sterlet sturgeon genome sequence and the mechanisms of segmental rediploidization

Postlethwait,Ingo Braasch,Vladimir A. Trifonov,Wesley C. Warren,Axel Meyer,Yann Guiguen,Manfred Schartl,Manfred Schartl,Manfred Schartl +31 more
TL;DR: A genome assembly of the sterlet, Acipenser ruthenus, reveals a whole-genome duplication early in the evolution of the entire sturgeon lineage and provides details about the rediploidization of the genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the genome sequence of wild-born African cheetahs reveals extreme genomic depletion in SNV incidence, SNV density, SNVs of coding genes, MHC class I and II genes, and mitochondrial DNA SNVs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basal divergence of Eriophyoidea (Acariformes, Eupodina) inferred from combined partial COI and 28S gene sequences and CLSM genital anatomy
Philipp E. Chetverikov,Philipp E. Chetverikov,Tatjana Cvrković,Alexey I. Makunin,Sogdiana I. Sukhareva,Biljana Vidović,Radmila Petanović +6 more
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the superfamily Eriophyoidea comprises basal paraphyletic pentasetacines (Loboquintus and Pentasetacus), and two large monophyletic groups: Eriophyidae s.l.str.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contrasting origin of B chromosomes in two cervids (Siberian roe deer and grey brocket deer) unravelled by chromosome-specific DNA sequencing.
Alexey I. Makunin,I. G. Kichigin,Denis M. Larkin,Patricia C. M. O’Brien,Malcolm A. Ferguson-Smith,Fengtang Yang,Anastasiya A. Proskuryakova,N.V. Vorobieva,Ekaterina Chernyaeva,Stephen J. O'Brien,Alexander S. Graphodatsky,Vladimir A. Trifonov +11 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that the B chromosomes of these two cervid species represent different stages of B chromosome sequences evolution: probably nascent and similar to autosomal copies in brocket deer, highly derived in roe deer, and based on the presence of the same orthologous protooncogenes in canids and broaket deer Bs.
