Genomic consequences of colonisation, migration and genetic drift in barn owl insular populations of the eastern Mediterranean

A. P. Machado, A. Topaloudis, T. Cumer, E. Lavanchy, V. Bontzorlos, R. Ceccherelli, M. Charter, N. Kassinis, P. Lymberakis, F. Manzia, A.-L. Ducrest, M. Dupasquier, N. Guex, A. Roulin, J. Goudet

This study uses whole genome sequences of barn owls to analyze genetic diversity and inbreeding in insular populations, showing distinct demographic histories between Crete and Cyprus.

Unexpected post-glacial colonisation route explains the white colour of barn owls (Tyto alba) from the British Isles

A. P. Machado, T. Cumer, C. Iseli, E. Beaudoing, A.-L. Ducrest, M. Dupasquier, N. Guex, K. Dichmann, R. Lourenco, J. Lusby, H.-D. Martens, L. Prevost, D. Ramsden, A. Roulin, J. Goudet

The paper shows barn owls in the British Isles inherited white coloration from an Iberian refugium via an unexpected post-glacial route, not through Doggerland.

Expression of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptor genes co-vary with a stress-related colour signal in barn owls

P. Beziers, A.-L. Ducrest, L. M. San-Jose, C. Simon, A. Roulin

The paper examines the relationship between glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptor gene expression and melanin-based coloration in barn owl nestlings, finding lower receptor expression in individuals with larger black feather spots.
