And third, genetic evidence has linked the modern Malagasy with people living in eastern Indonesia as well as farther off in Melanesia and Oceania.

再次，基因证据已证明现代的马达加斯加人与东印尼人以及相距更遥远的美拉尼西亚人和生活在大洋洲的人都是有联系的。

On Saturday, the Pope made an impassioned plea to Madagascans to protect their island against deforestation.

周六，教皇慷慨激昂地呼吁马达加斯加人保护他们的岛屿，减少森林砍伐。

This moth is not a ordinary insect, at least if you believe the people of Madagascar.

这种飞蛾可不是普通昆虫起码在马达加斯加人看来不是。

He drew this conclusion, just published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society, by sampling the DNA of 266 Malagasy people and comparing it with existing samples from 2,745 Indonesians.

Cox博士最近在刊《皇家会进展》（Proceedings of the Royal Society ）发表的文章中对266名马达加斯加人进行DNA抽样，同现有的2745名印尼人的DNA样品进行了比对，得出了以上结论。

Most likely, then, the first Malagasy were accidental castaways, news of whose adventure never made it back home.

那么，首批马达加斯加人也很可能是因船只失事而意外漂流到该岛的，而这批人后来也没办法回到家乡。

Dr Cox and his colleagues were therefore able to make a statistical comparison of Indonesian and Malagasy mitochondrial genomes knowing that any changes which had occurred since they separated would be the result of rare mutations.

Cox博士和他的同事们因此能进行印尼人和马达加斯加人线粒体基因组的数据比对，从而推断出原本相同的线粒体DNA天各一方后发生的任何遗传变化都是源于一些罕见的基因突变。

We trademarked stem aloe to really indicate what it's doing, but of 65 species of aloe, it's the only one that was used in Madagascar to develop an indigenous product there by the Malagasy people used for centuries.

我们为茎用芦荟申请了商标， 以真正表明它的功效。在65种芦荟中， 只有这一种被马达加斯加的马达加斯加人用于几个世纪的传统产品开发中。
