The complete mitochondrial genome sequences of the two sister species, Scandinavian willow ptarmigan Lagopus lagopus and Icelandic rock ptarmigan Lagopus muta, were characterized using next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome for willow ptarmigan was ...

There is a growing interest for the possibility of using peripheral blood cells (including platelets) as markers for mitochondrial function in less accessible tissues. Only a few studies have examined the correlation between respiration in blood and ...

The complex climatic and geological history of Southeast Asia has shaped this region’s high biodiversity. In particular, sea level fluctuations associated with repeated glacial cycles during the Pleistocene both facilitated, and limited, connectivity ...
