      Only five species of the once-diverse Rhinocerotidae remain, making the reconstruction of their evolutionary history a challenge to biologists since Darwin. We sequenced genomes from five rhinoceros species (three extinct ...
    • Genomic Consequences of Fragmentation in the Endangered Fennoscandian Arctic Fox (Vulpes lagopus) 

      Cockerill, Christopher A.; Hasselgren, Malin; Dussex, Nicolas; Dalén, Love; von Seth, Johanna; Angerbjörn, Anders; Wallén, Johan F.; Landa, Arild; Eide, Nina Elisabeth; Flagstad, Øystein; Ehrich, Dorothee; Sokolov, Aleksandr; Sokolova, Natalya; Norén, Karin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Accelerating climate change is causing severe habitat fragmentation in the Arctic, threatening the persistence of many cold-adapted species. The Scandinavian arctic fox (V. lagopus) is highly fragmented, with a once ...
    • Genomic insights into the conservation status of the world’s last remaining Sumatran rhinoceros populations 

      von Seth, Johanna; Dussex, Nicolas; Díez-del-Molino, David; van der Valk, Tom; Kutschera, Verena E.; Kierczak, Marcin; Steiner, Cynthia C.; Liu, Shanlin; Gilbert, Marcus Thomas Pius; Sinding, Mikkel-Holger S.; Prost, Stefan; Guschanski, Katerina; Nathan, Senthilvel K. S. S.; Brace, Selina; Chan, Yvonne L.; Wheat, Christopher W.; Skoglund, Pontus; Ryder, Oliver A.; Goossens, Benoit; Götherström, Anders; Dalén, Love (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Small populations are often exposed to high inbreeding and mutational load that can increase the risk of extinction. The Sumatran rhinoceros was widespread in Southeast Asia, but is now restricted to small and isolated ...
