A tale of two African mongooses (Carnivora: Herpestidae): differing genetic diversity and geographical structure across a continent
Phylogeographies of African mammals reveal patterns that correlate with Pleistocene environmental fluctuations and geographical barriers, which may affect species differently according to their habitat preferences and dispersal capabilities. The marsh mongoose Atilax paludinosus, a widely distributed African carnivoran, is a good model to compare with other African mammals. Here, we... -

Of mice and (Viking?) men: phylogeography of British and Irish house mice
The west European subspecies of house mouse (Mus musculus domesticus) has gained much of its current widespread distribution through commensalism with humans. This means that the phylogeography of M. m. domesticus should reflect patterns of human movements. We studied restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and DNA sequence variations in mouse... -

Where does the tiger come from? – A robust, molecular technique for simultaneous identification of endangered species and subspecies
The Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) monitors the international trade in endangered animal and plant species; a high profile example is the tiger, Panthera tigris. We report on the application of a SNaPshot multiplex technique to simultaneously identify tiger species and...Kitpipit, Thitika ; Tobe, Shanan S ; Kitchener, Andrew C ; Gill, Peter ; Linacre, Adrian

The development and validation of a single SNaPshot multiplex for tiger species and subspecies identification — Implications for forensic purposes
The tiger (Panthera tigris) is currently listed on Appendix I of the Convention on the International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora; this affords it the highest level of international protection. To aid in the investigation of alleged illegal trade in tiger body parts and derivatives, molecular...Kitpipit, Thitika ; Tobe, Shanan S ; Kitchener, Andrew C ; Gill, Peter ; Linacre, Adrian
