The paper estimates de novo mutation rates in Panthera and Neofelis species using pedigrees, finding rates between 0.5 and 1.4e-08 per generation per base pair.

The paper uses whole-genome sequencing of historical and recent lion populations to show population fragmentation and genetic diversity loss in East Africa over the past century.

This study uses genomic data to identify six species within Guerlinguetus tree squirrels, revealing recent speciation influenced by geographic barriers and gene flow in the Amazon.

The paper provides genomic resources for Asian and African savannah elephants to aid conservation and health research through genome sequencing, mutation rate estimation, demographic reconstruction, and a capture assay for genotyping.

This paper develops epigenetic clocks for African and Asian elephants using DNA methylation data to estimate age and identify age-related CpGs and their associated genes.

This study estimates population size and density of African forest elephants in southwestern Gabon using genetic capture-recapture and analyzes social structure through network analysis, finding lower population estimates than previously reported.
