Genome-Wide Insights into Intraspecific Taxonomy and Genetic Diversity of Argali (Ovis ammon)

Estimating abundance of mountain ungulates incorporating imperfect detection: argali Ovis ammon in the Gobi Desert, Mongolia

Incentives toward conservation of argali Ovis ammon: A case study of trophy hunting in Western China

We investigated management of wildlife, vation at the local level, thus undermining the intended incentive system. Because local wildlife protection habitat, and the hunting programme in Aksai County, Gansu Province, People’s Republic of China, during oBcials have been denied both funding and authority to deal with threats to the wildlife, the programme’s contri1997–2000. Argali Ovis ammon is t...

Draft genome of the Marco Polo Sheep (Ovis ammon polii)

Background The Marco Polo Sheep (Ovis ammon polii), a subspecies of argali (Ovis ammon) that is distributed mainly in the Pamir Mountains, provides a mammalian model to study high altitude adaptation mechanisms. Due to over-hunting and subsistence poaching, as well as competition with livestock and habitat loss, O. ammon has been categorized as an endangered species on several lists. It can hav...

phylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran

in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...

Insights into the genetic history of Green-legged Partridgelike fowl: mtDNA and genome-wide SNP analysis

The Green-legged Partridgelike (GP) fowl, an old native Polish breed, is characterised by reseda green-coloured shanks rather than yellow, white, slate or black commonly observed across most domestic breeds of chicken. Here, we investigate the origin, genetic relationships and structure of the GP fowl using mtDNA D-loop sequencing and genome-wide SNP analysis. Genome-wide association analysis b...
