In recent decades, human activities along the Chinese coast have been increasing because of rapid economic growth3. As a result, the water quality along China's coast has been progressively deteriorating4,5. The Chinese white dolphin populations, historically distributed in nearshore waters south of...
African American (AA) was defined as ⩾ 90% for the combination of African and European ancestry, and also o 3% Asian and Native American ancestry. Individuals who self-identify as Latino or Hispanic (LA) in the United States may have predominately European ancestry and may have relatively ...
Notable is that only two European countries are on the list and that the US hosts so many more large hotels than any other country, including Asian countries with much larger populations. Largest Hotels in Europe For large hotels in European countries and cities, we have separate top lists, c...

but they additionally include mixtures with other ancestral populations (Supplementary Fig.11). TheseK-cluster mixtures appear to be consistent with the multiple edges underlying this larger lineage in the NeighborNet analysis. In other words, they are likely indicative of differential inheritance of ge...

in high-light microhabitats,AAlikely leads to successful colonisation of suitable sites via seed dispersal by brown lemurs. A study simulating plant population dynamics over 1000 years suggested that quantitative seed dispersal by an animal species into safe sites can maintain plant populations despite ...
