Excited to share our study on and with Picuris Pueblo! It’s a true honor to have worked alongside the community. Combining oral history and genomics, we show a long-standing continuity in the US Southwest and challenge ideas of pre-Columbian population collapse. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

De Cashan et al. utilize 37 historic and 25 modern koala genomes to show a clear decline in genome-wide heterozygosity over time, and loss of mitochondrial haplotypes. This loss of genetic diversity may compromise the species' resilience. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/molb... #evobio #koala #extinction

In this comment piece with James Fellows Yates and Christina Warinner (@christinawarinner.bsky.social), we highlight the mounting problems with data archiving and metadata reporting in ancient DNA research. The field cannot afford to keep neglecting this issue. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

🐟 Now at #IZAZ2024: Teodora Mladenović presents groundbreaking work on sturgeon identification using #ZooMS. These endangered ancient fish have been crucial in European history, but their archaeological remains are notoriously hard to identify to species level.

I believe the september issue of Molecular Biology and Evolution @MolBioEvol will be a very interesting and revealing one. Not only did @EnRose89 make this beautiful cover but she is also first author on the study about the loss of population diversity in black rhinoceros.

I really hope this is true, as it will be a cool and novel source of DNA. However, with the current data I am not convinced and fear more that this is a repeat like previous unsupported claims. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-38191-w
