  • A genomic exploration of the early evolution of extant cats and their sabre-toothed relatives
    Westbury, Michael V.; Barnett, Ross; Sandoval Velasco, Marcela; Gower, Graham; Garrett Vieira, Filipe; Manuel Montero, Marc de, 1991-; Hansen, Anders J.; Yamaguchi, Nobuyuki; Werdelin, Lars; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Gilbert, M Thomas; Lorenzen, Eline D. (F1000 Research, 2021)
    Background: The evolutionary relationships of Felidae during their Early–Middle Miocene radiation is contentious. Although the early common ancestors have been subsumed under the grade-group Pseudaelurus, this group is ...
  • Genomic adaptations and evolutionary history of the extinct scimitar-toothed cat, Homotherium latidens
    Barnett, Ross; de Manuel, Marc; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Gilbert, M Thomas (Elsevier, 2020)
    Homotherium was a genus of large-bodied scimitar-toothed cats, morphologically distinct from any extant felid species, that went extinct at the end of the Pleistocene [1-4]. They possessed large, saber-form serrated canine ...
  • The Genomic Footprints of the Fall and Recovery of the Crested Ibis
    Feng, Shaohong; Fang, Qi; Barnett, Ross; Li, Cai; Han, Sojung; Kuhlwilm, Martin; Zhou, Long; Pan, Hailin; Deng, Yuan; Chen, Guangji; Gamauf, Anita; Woog, Friederike; Prys-Jones, Robert; Marquès i Bonet, Tomàs, 1975-; Gilbert, M Thomas; Zhang, Guojie (Elsevier, 2019)
    Human-induced environmental change and habitat fragmentation pose major threats to biodiversity and require active conservation efforts to mitigate their consequences. Genetic rescue through translocation and the introduction ...
