The paper rebuts a critique by showing that re-analyzed data supports the original findings that the transmissible cancer in Tasmanian devils has transitioned to endemism.

This study examines how a transmissible cancer in Tasmanian devils affected breeding strategies and survival, finding no continued increase in precocial breeding or inbreeding depression.

This paper detects RMV and novel tobamoviruses in Australia using metatranscriptomic sequencing of animal gut content, revealing new viral threats to horticultural systems.

The paper examines spatial niche separation between invasive feral cats and native western quolls in South Australia, finding they occupy distinct habitats with cats preferring grasslands and quolls avoiding areas with high cat density.

This study tests how reducing European rabbit populations affects feral cat activity using camera surveys in South Australia, finding that only warren destruction significantly altered cat detections.

The paper generates a chromosome-scale reference genome for the eastern quoll and identifies genomic signatures of historical decline and pelage color evolution.

The paper introduces Tasman-PCR, a PCR-based assay that distinguishes between DFT1 and DFT2 in Tasmanian devils with high sensitivity and specificity.
