Heteroplasmy in the mitochondrial D-loop region in Turkish domestic pigeon breeds<i> (Columba</i><i> livia</i><i> domestica)</i> obfuscates their phylogeny
Biray, Bengisu; Peksen, Cigdem Akin; Bilgin, Cemal Can (2025-01-01)
Columba livia domestica, the domesticated version of the rock pigeon, has long accompanied people for various purposes or activities for thousands of years. Nowadays, pigeon breeding is mostly done as a hobby and it is est...
The first complete genome of the extinct European wild ass (Equus hemionus hydruntinus)
Özkan, Mustafa; et. al. (2024-07-01)
We present palaeogenomes of three morphologically unidentified Anatolian equids dating to the first millennium BCE, sequenced to a coverage of 0.6–6.4×. Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes of the Anatolian individuals clustered w...
