Northern Coyote/Coywolf Taxonomy and Admixture: A Meta-Analysis
June 28, 2019
A flurry of recent papers have attempted to taxonomically characterise eastern canids, mainly grey wolves Canis lupus, eastern wolves Canis lycaon or Canis lupus lycaon and northeastern coyotes or coywolves Canis latrans, Canis latrans var. or Canis latrans x C. … read more

A Genome-wide Perspective On The Evolutionary History Of Enigmatic Wolf-like Canids
June 28, 2019
High-throughput genotyping technologies developed for model species can potentially increase the resolution of demographic history and ancestry in wild relatives. We use a SNP genotyping microarray developed for the domestic dog to assay variation in over 48K loci in wolf-like … read more

Coyotes in Wolves Clothing
June 28, 2019
We report on three presumed wolf pups captured in Michigan’s northern Lower Peninsula, potentially representing the first documented case of wolf reproduction in the Lower Peninsula since wolves were extirpated there a century ago. The pups, two females and one … read more

Two Decades Of Non-invasive Genetic Monitoring Of The Grey Wolves Recolonizing The Alps Support Very Limited Dog Introgression
June 28, 2019
Potential hybridization between wolves and dogs has fueled the sensitive conservation and political debate underlying the recovery of the grey wolf throughout Europe. Here we provide the first genetic analysis of wolf-dog admixture in an area entirely recolonized, the northwestern … read more
