Thanks @genomebiolevol.bsky.social for collating some of the media articles about our recent study!
The recent article on wholly rhino ancient genomics by Guðjónsdóttir, @jcchacond.bsky.social et al. has received plenty of attention in the media. ⬇️ Check below the thread below for some great coverage on this story.
Researchers recover a woolly rhino genome from inside a frozen wolf's stomach. The work marks the first time an Ice Age animal’s complete genome has been recovered from tissue preserved inside another ancient animal. New study from @cpgsthlm.bsky.social www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...

Such a fun project to be part of! 🦏🧬
Guðjónsdóttir, @jcchacond.bsky.social et al. sequenced the genome of a >14kya old woolly rhino from muscle found inside a permafrost-preserved wolf's stomach. Demographic inference suggests a rapid extinction for the woolly rhino. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gbe/evaf239 #genome #evolution #aDNA

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Our research, published today in Science, reveals remarkable concordance between human and dog genomes through time, highlighting how deeply intertwined our evolutionary histories have been over the past 11,000 years. 🔗 Read the full paper here: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Genomic evidence for the Holocene codispersal of dogs and humans across Eastern Eurasia
As the first domestic species, dogs likely dispersed with different cultural groups during the Late Pleistocene and Holocene. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed 73 ancient dog genomes, including 17 ...

Incase you missed it - our recent paper in @pnas.org on Norwegian lemming genomics!
Genetic sequencing dates the split between Siberian and Norwegian lemmings at around 35,000 years ago, shortly before the Last Glacial Maximum—making Norwegian lemmings among the planet’s youngest mammal species. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...
