Climate and refugial origin influence the mitochondrial lineage distribution of weasels (Mustela nivalis) in a phylogeographic suture zone
Overarching trends can be seen in European mammalian phylogeography, yet it is clear that species responded differently depending on adaptations to past environments. We built upon previous work on the phylogeography of weasels (Mustela nivalis) in Europe by using well-preserved museum specimens from a proposed phylogeographic suture zone. The complete...McDevitt, A D ; Zub, K ; Kawalko, Agato ; Oliver, M K ; Herman, Jeremy S …

Osteoarthritis of the temporo-mandibular joint in free-living Soay sheep on St Kilda
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative disease of synovial joints with the potential to cause pathology and welfare issues in both domestic and wild ruminants. Previous work has identified OA of the elbow joint in domestic sheep, but the prevalence of OA of the jaw and in particular the temporomandibular...Stojak, J ; McDevitt, A D ; Herman, Jeremy S ; Searle, Jeremy B ; Wojcik, J M
