Genomic consequences of isolation and inbreeding in an island dingo population

This study analyzes whole-genome sequences of dingoes on an isolated island to assess the genomic impacts of inbreeding and small population size, finding elevated long runs of homozygosity and evidence of purging deleterious mutations.

Genomic signatures of bottleneck and founder effects in dingoes

This study examines genomic signatures of bottleneck and founder effects in dingoes by comparing their whole-genome diversity to other canines, finding lower diversity and higher deleterious mutations in dingoes.
