A Genome-wide Perspective On The Evolutionary History Of Enigmatic Wolf-like Canids
June 30, 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

Extinct Beringian Wolf Morphotype Found In The Continental U.s. Has Implications For Wolf Migration And Evolution
June 30, 2019
Pleistocene diversity was much higher than today, for example there were three distinct wolf morphotypes (dire, gray, Beringian) in North America versus one today (gray). Previous fossil evidence suggested that these three groups overlapped ecologically, but split the landscape geographically. … read more
