The ribonuclease from an extinct bovid ruminant March 1990
The sequence of the ribonuclease from the ancestor of swamp buffalo, river buffalo, and ox, corresponding approximately to Pachyporrux lutidem, an extinct ruminant known from the fossil record, has been reconstructed using the rule of ‘maximum parsimony’. This protein and two sequences that may have been intermediates in the evolution of modern ribonuclease have been constructed in the laborato...
متن کاملMolecular phylogeny and evolution of the extinct bovid Myotragus balearicus.
Myotragus balearicus was a dwarf artiodactyl endemic to the Eastern Balearic Islands, where it evolved in isolation for more than 5 million years before becoming extinct between 3640 and 2135 cal BC (calibrated years BC). Numerous unusual apomorphies obscure the relationship between Myotragus and the extant Caprinae. Therefore, genetic data for this species would significantly contribute to the...

متن کاملMoa Tracks: an Unrecognised Legacy from an Extinct Bird?
Since the dramatic announcement by Owen (1842), after examining the shaft of a moa femur, that "there had existed and perhaps still exists in New Zealand a race of struthious birds of larger and more colossal size than the ostrich or any known species", our knowledge of the moa has advanced considerably. Investigations can be classified broadly into three groups. First was the indiscriminate co...
متن کاملThe New Zealand Thrush: An Extinct Oriole
The New Zealand Thrush, or Piopio, is an extinct passerine that was endemic to New Zealand. It has often been placed in its own family (Turnagridae), unresolved relative to other passerines, but affinities with thrushes, Australaian magpies, manucodes, whistlers, birds-of-paradise and bowerbirds has been suggested based on morphological data. An affinity with the bowerbirds was also indicated i...
