Temporal loss of genome-wide and immunogenetic diversity in a near-extinct parrot

2024-11-10

Abstract excerpt

Loss of genetic diversity threatens a species' adaptive potential and long-term resilience. Predicted to be extinct by 2038, the orange-bellied parrot (Neophema chrysogaster) is a Critically Endangered migratory bird threatened by numerous viral, bacterial and fungal diseases. The species has undergone multiple population crashes, reaching a low of three wild-born females and 13 males in 2016 and is now represente...
