COMPLETE MITOCHONDRIAL GENOMES PROVIDE CURRENT REFINED PHYLOGENOMIC HYPOTHESES FOR RELATIONSHIPS AMONG TEN HIRUNDO SPECIES

Complete mitochondrial genomes provide current refined phylogenomic hypotheses for relationships among ten Hirundo species

Hirundo is the most species-rich genus of the passerine swallow family (Hirundinidae) and has a cosmopolitan distribution.Here we report the complete, annotated mitochondrial genomes for 25 individuals from 10 of the 14 extant Hirundo species; these include representatives from four eeboo coupons subspecies of the barn swallow, H.rustica.Mitogenome

Enhancing TreeMMoSys with a high-precision strain gauge to measure the wind-induced response of trees down to the ground

Measuring tree response to wind loads is fundamental for the process-based analysis of wind-tree interactions.Comprehensive knowledge of wind-tree interactions enables the further development of decision support tools available for estimating the probability of wind damage to trees.The assessment of critical wind socksmith santa cruz loads that lea
