This paper presents genomic resources for pangolins, including reference genomes and orthologous gene databases, to aid in conservation and forensic efforts.

This study identifies a mutation in SLC2A11B as the genetic basis for pearl iris color in domestic pigeons, linking it to domestication and evolutionary changes in avian pigmentation.
