TL;DR: Before the real-world conservation potential of genomic research can be realized, current infrastructures need to be modified, methods must mature, analytical pipelines need to been developed, and successful case studies must be disseminated to practitioners.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variable extent of hybridization between invasive sika (Cervus nippon) and native red deer (C. elaphus) in a small geographical area.
TL;DR: It is argued that the pattern of differential introgression across the study area is primarily due to the rarity of hybridization events between the two species and the limited time the twospecies have been in contact, contrasts with the causes of classic mosaic hybrid zones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sturgeon conservation genomics: SNP discovery and validation using RAD sequencing
Rob Ogden,Karim Gharbi,Nikolai S. Mugue,Jann Th. Martinsohn,Helen Senn,John W. Davey,Mohammad Pourkazemi,Ross McEwing,Cathlene Eland,Michele Vidotto,A. Sergeev,Leonardo Congiu +11 more
TL;DR: Thousands of putatively informative markers were identified including, for the first time, SNPs that show population‐wide differentiation between Russian and Persian sturgeons, representing an important advance in the ability to manage these cryptic species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reference-free SNP discovery for the Eurasian beaver from restriction site-associated DNA paired-end data.
Helen Senn,Rob Ogden,Timothee Cezard,Karim Gharbi,Zamin Iqbal,Eric N. Johnson,Nick Kamps-Hughes,Frank Rosell,Ross McEwing +8 more
TL;DR: This study used restriction site–associated DNA (RAD) sequencing to discover SNP markers suitable for population genetic and parentage analysis with the aim of using them for monitoring the reintroduction of the Eurasian beaver (Castor fibre) to Scotland.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study generates genome‐wide single nucleotide polymorphism data from a geographically and taxonomically representative set of manta and devil ray samples to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships and evaluate species boundaries under the general lineage concept, and uncover substantial incomplete lineage sorting indicating that rapid speciation together with standing variation in ancestral populations has driven phylogenetic uncertainty within Mobulidae.
