  • Reduced genetic diversity and accumulation of numerous potentially deleterious mutations may have precipitated woolly mammoth population extinction through alteration of important functions in development, reproduction, and olfaction.

    “The resulting reduced genetic diversity and the accumulation of numerous potentially deleterious mutations may have precipitated the population's extinction through the alteration of important functions in development, reproduction, and olfaction [17][18][19] .”

    From Ancient DNA analysis (2021) · cites this paper as [17]

    The Introduction reports an excess of putatively detrimental mutations in the pre-extinction Wrangel Island mammoth, and the Discussion says this variation may have limited survival. The Results identify affected developmental genes and olfactory receptors; the Discussion links urinary proteins to mate choice in elephants. But the paper does not establish that altered development, reproduction, or olfaction precipitated the mammoth population’s extinction, and it notes that some olfactory losses may have been nonessential or favored by island conditions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
