Journal ArticleDOI

King penguin population on Macquarie Island recovers ancient DNA diversity after heavy exploitation in historic times

TL;DR: The results suggest that the king penguin population has recovered past genetic diversity in just 80 years owing to conservation efforts, despite having seen the brink of extinction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Captive management and molecular sexing of endangered avian species : An application to the black stilt Himantopus novaezelandiae and hybrids

TL;DR: A DNA-based method which can be easily used to sex both captive and wild black stilts is presented and how this method is presently being used to assist in the captive rearing programme is described and the applications this method may have for the conservation of this bird in the wild are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mysterious Spotted Green Pigeon and its relation to the Dodo and its kindred

TL;DR: The phylogenetic placement of the Spotted Green Pigeon indicates that the ancestors of both Caloenas and therefore Raphinae displayed and shared the following traits: ability of flight, semi-terrestrial habits and an affinity towards islands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Next generation sequencing and analysis of a conserved transcriptome of New Zealand's kiwi

TL;DR: This investigation revealed patterns of mutation and purifying selection in conserved protein coding regions in birds, and suggests a relatively cost-effective way of obtaining a glimpse into the fundamental molecular evolutionary attributes of a genome, particularly when no closely related genomic sequence is available.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adélie penguins and temperature changes in Antarctica: a long-term view.

TL;DR: During the summer months, Adélie penguins represent the dominant biomass of terrestrial Antarctica and offers unique long-term information, at both the genomic and ecological levels, about how a species has responded to climate change over more than 40 000 years.
