Comparative Population Genetic Structure of the Endangered Southern Brown Bandicoot, Isoodon obesulus, in Fragmented Landscapes of Southern Australia
Genetic connectivity is a key factor for maintaining the persistence of populations in fragmented landscapes. In highly modified landscapes such us peri-urban areas, organisms' dispersal among fragmented habitat patches can be reduced due to the surrounding matrix, leading to subsequent decreased gene flow and increased potential extinction risk in isolated sub-populations. However, few studies...
متن کاملGenetic population structure of the Greater Bilby Macrotis lagotis, a marsupial in decline.
The Greater Bilby has shown a rapid decline in range during this century and now occupies only a small isolated area in south-western Queensland (QLD) and a larger, but mostly low-density area in the north-western deserts of the Northern Territory (NT) and Western Australia (WA). We have examined variation in the control region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and at nine microsatellite loci in ord...
متن کاملGenomic characterization of a novel virus found in papillomatous lesions from a southern brown bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus) in Western Australia.
The genome of a novel virus, tentatively named bandicoot papillomatosis carcinomatosis virus type 2 (BPCV2), obtained from multicentric papillomatous lesions from an adult male southern brown bandicoot (Isoodon obesulus) was sequenced in its entirety. BPCV2 had a circular double-stranded DNA genome consisting of 7277 bp and open reading frames encoding putative L1 and L2 structural proteins and...
متن کاملNon-invasive evaluation of physiological stress hormone responses in a captive population of the greater bilby Macrotis lagotis
Captive breeding programs are increasingly being used as a management option for threatened mammals. The greater bilby Macrotis lagotis, for example, is a vulnerable species which is maintained in captivity at several facilities in Australia. Non-invasive evaluation of stress hormones (cortisol in mammals) via excretory metabolites can be used to monitor physiological stress responses of captiv...
متن کاملA new Eimeria species parasitic in Isoodon obesulus (Marsupialia: Peramelidae) in Western Australia.
Feces from southern brown bandicoots, Isoodon obesulus, inhabiting the Perth metropolitan area were examined using fecal flotation and light microscopy, and were frequently found to contain oocysts (10/24; 42%). To enable formal description of the proposed new Eimeria species, i.e., Eimeria quenda n. sp., fecal oocysts from 1 juvenile male I. obesulus were allowed to sporulate in 2% potassium d...
