Studying the genome of the marsupial mole
January 4, 2025 5:09 PM Subscribe
Marsupial moles are perhaps Australia's most bizarre mammals. Known as "itjaritjari" to the Indigenous Aṉangu people and featuring prominently in their tales, the marsupial mole is rarely observed, making any sighting a rare event. Now a team led by Dr. Stephen Frankenberg and Professor Andrew Pask, has begun to unearth some of the marsupial mole's deepest evolutionary secrets by studying its genome for the first time.
Is this the final print version of the paper? Even the SRA links don't work which usually means the data is submitted, but not publicly released yet.

The Science editors should not have allowed this to be published without the support data.
