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.

TL;DR: The red fox genome is sequenced and assembled and a subset of foxes from the tame, aggressive and conventional farm-bred populations are re-sequenced to identify genomic regions associated with the response to selection for behaviour.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: By sequencing both its genome and gut metagenome, the authors provide a holistic view of the evolutionary adaptations that underlie this unusual diet, highlighting the value of a holistic study of both the host and its microbiota when attempting to decipher adaptations underlying radical dietary lifestyles.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is identified that genetic inbreeding and loss-of-function genes in the crested ibis may all constitute genetic susceptibility to other factors including long-term climate change, over-hunting, and agrochemical overuse.

TL;DR: A potential heterogametic sex chromosome is identified in the female arowana karyotype, suggesting that the sex is determined by a ZW/ZZ sex chromosomal system, and differential gene expression among three varieties provides insights into the genetic basis of colour variation.
