Mining museums for historical DNA: advances and challenges in museomics

Christopher J. Raxworthy et al.

Summary: Historical DNA obtained from museum and herbarium specimens provides new insights into organisms' evolutionary history, such as documenting genetic erosion and extinction, discovering unknown species, resolving evolutionary relationships, studying epigenetic effects, and determining origins of infectious diseases. However, the development of best practices in isolating, processing, and analyzing historical DNA remains underexplored due to the diversity of specimen preparation types and collecting histories.

Deforestation and bird habitat loss in Colombia

Pablo Jose Negret et al.

Summary: The study found that forest-dependent bird habitats in Colombia have significantly decreased, with nearly 90% of species losing some habitat and some projected to lose at least half of their historical habitat by 2040. This has important implications for tropical forest ecosystems and ecosystem service provision.

Two high-quality de novo genomes from single ethanol-preserved specimens of tiny metazoans (Collembola)

Clement Schneider et al.

Summary: The novel ultra-low input protocol allows for high-quality genome sequencing from single specimens of minute, field-preserved metazoans, providing a new approach for biodiversity research. The genomes of two submillimeter Collembola species were successfully sequenced, demonstrating the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.

How to Make a Rodent Giant: Genomic Basis and Tradeoffs of Gigantism in the Capybara, the World's Largest Rodent

Santiago Herrera-Alvarez et al.

Summary: The evolution of gigantism is constrained by two tradeoffs: reduced efficiency of purifying selection due to negative correlation between body size and population size, and increased risk of cancer due to higher number of cells and cell proliferation. Comparative genomic analysis in capybaras revealed signatures of an intragenomic conflict where selection on genes and pathways related to cancer played a role in the evolution of gigantism.
