The fusion of these different domains into a single comprehensive theory in 19th century biology was a historically and culturally interdependent process, thus examining genetic prehistory should unravel these entanglements.

The results show that E. kiang mitochondrial DNA is 16,634 bp long, and predicted to encode all the 37 genes that are typical for vertebrates.

Unlike Denisovan molars, which display archaic characteristics not found in modern humans, the only morphologically informative Denisovan postcranial bone identified to date is suggested here to be plesiomorphic and shared between Denisovans and modern humans.

Donkey genomes provide new insights into domestication and selection for coat color
- BiologyNature communications
- 2020
The genetic basis of coat color is investigated and it is shown that the non-Dun phenotype is caused by a 1 bp deletion downstream of the TBX3 gene, which decreases the expression of this gene and its inhibitory effect on pigment deposition.
Donkey genome and insight into the imprinting of fast karyotype evolution

The donkey, like the horse, is a promising model for exploring karyotypic instability and expanded miRNA families and five newly discovered miRNA target genes involved in meiosis may be associated with fast karyotype evolution.

This study places the extinct European wild ass, E. hydruntinus, into its phylogenetic context within the Asiatic wild asses and reveals recent mitochondrial introgression between populations currently regarded as separate species.
Speciation with gene flow in equids despite extensive chromosomal plasticity
- BiologyProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences

These findings challenge the claim that the accumulation of chromosomal rearrangements drive complete reproductive isolation, and promote equids as a fundamental model for understanding the interplay between chromosomal structure, gene flow, and, ultimately, speciation.
Domestication of the donkey: Timing, processes, and indicators
- Environmental ScienceProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
- 2008
Morphological similarities to wild ass show that, despite their use as beasts of burden, donkeys were still undergoing considerable phenotypic change during the early Dynastic period in Egypt, consistent with recent studies of other domestic animals that suggest that the process of domestication is slower and less linear than previously thought.
