Genomic status of the Eurasian curlew Numenius arquata : estimating Essential Biodiversity Variables and selection signals for a declining migratory bird

The paper analyzes genomic data from Eurasian curlews to assess genetic diversity, population structure, and selection signals in declining populations.

Influence of mowing timing on the breeding success of an endangered ground-nesting migratory bird, Whinchat (Saxicola rubetra)

The paper examines how mowing timing affects Whinchat breeding success in Ireland, finding that while early mowing impacts productivity, other factors also influence reproductive outcomes.

Inbreeding or outbreeding depression? How to manage an endangered and locally adapted population of red grouse Lagopus scotica

This study shows that Irish red grouse have higher inbreeding and genetic divergence from British populations, suggesting local adaptation and potential risks from translocations.
