This paper proposes and tests sedaDNA sampling workflows for archaeologists to minimize surface contamination and improve data reliability.

The paper examines age-related DNA methylation changes on sex chromosomes in two avian species, finding significant decreases on the female-specific W chromosome and species-specific patterns on the Z chromosome.

The paper examines DNA methylation patterns in avian species, finding that dosage compensation is not achieved through methylation on the Z chromosome but rather through other mechanisms, with implications for sexual conflict resolution.

The paper estimates genome mutation rates in baleen whales using pedigrees, finding rates similar to primates and revising population size estimates and cancer rate explanations.
