Genes (Basel) . 2023 Mar; 14(3). PMID: 36981014
The critically endangered western gorillas () are divided into two subspecies: the western lowland () and the Cross River () gorilla. Given the difficulty in sampling wild great ape populations...

Stadele V, Arandjelovic M, Nixon S, Bergl R, Bradley B, Breuer T, et al.
Am J Primatol . 2022 Jan; 84(3):e23363. PMID: 35041228
Studies of the evolutionary relationships among gorilla populations using autosomal and mitochondrial sequences suggest that male-mediated gene flow may have been important in the past, but data on the Y-chromosomal...

Murthy S, OBrien K, Agbor A, Angedakin S, Arandjelovic M, Ayimisin E, et al.
Virus Evol . 2019 Aug; 5(2):vez015. PMID: 31384482
Herpesviruses are thought to have evolved in very close association with their hosts. This is notably the case for cytomegaloviruses (CMVs; genus ) infecting primates, which exhibit a strong signal...

Leeds A, Lukas K, Kendall C, Slavin M, Ross E, Robbins M, et al.
Am J Primatol . 2017 May; 79(8). PMID: 28519898
Films, as part of a larger environmental education program, have the potential to influence the knowledge and attitudes of viewers. However, to date, no evaluations have been published reporting the...

Hans J, Bergl R, Vigilant L
Immunogenetics . 2017 Mar; 69(5):303-323. PMID: 28332079
Comparisons of MHC gene content and diversity among closely related species can provide insights into the evolutionary mechanisms shaping immune system variation. After chimpanzees and bonobos, gorillas are humans' closest...

Madinda N, Ehlers B, Wertheim J, Akoua-Koffi C, Bergl R, Boesch C, et al.
J Virol . 2016 Jul; 90(19):8531-41. PMID: 27440885
Unlabelled: It has long been hypothesized that polyomaviruses (PyV; family Polyomaviridae) codiverged with their animal hosts. In contrast, recent analyses suggested that codivergence may only marginally influence the evolution of...

Hans J, Haubner A, Arandjelovic M, Bergl R, Funfstuck T, Gray M, et al.
Am J Primatol . 2015 Aug; 77(11):1193-206. PMID: 26283172
Genes encoded by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are crucial for the recognition and presentation of antigens to the immune system. In contrast to their closest relatives, chimpanzees and humans,...

Arandjelovic M, Bergl R, Ikfuingei R, Jameson C, Parker M, Vigilant L
R Soc Open Sci . 2015 Jun; 2(2):140423. PMID: 26064602
Population estimates using genetic capture-recapture methods from non-invasively collected wildlife samples are more accurate and precise than those obtained from traditional methods when detection and resampling rates are high. Recently,...

Hasenjager M, Bergl R
Zoo Biol . 2015 Apr; 34(3):201-10. PMID: 25919392
Repetitive movement patterns are commonly observed in zoo elephants. The extent to which these behaviors constitute a welfare concern varies, as their expression ranges from stereotypies to potentially beneficial anticipatory...

Human adenoviruses (HAdV; species HAdV-A to -G) are highly prevalent in the human population, and represent an important cause of morbidity and, to a lesser extent, mortality. Recent studies have...
