Abstract Illegal wildlife trade (IWT) is one of the largest global illegal activities, and it negatively affects biodiversity and sustainable development worldwide. DNA barcoding coupled with high‐throughput sequencing (i.e., metabarcoding) is useful in identifying taxa affected by IWT and has been used routinely for decades.

A recognition method of Ancient Yi character based on deep learning(一种基于深度学习的古彝文识别方法)
作为世界六大古文字之一的古彝文记录了几千年来人类的发展历史。通过对古彝文的识别能够将这些珍贵文献资料转换为电子文档,便于保存和传播。由于历史发展、区域限制等原因,针对古彝文识别的研究鲜有成果。本文将当前新颖的深度学习技术应用于古老的文字识别。在四层卷积神经网络(convolutional neural network,CNN) 基础上扩展出5 个模型,然后利用Alpha-Beta 散度作为惩罚项,对5 个模型的输出神经元重新进行自编码,接着用2 个全连接层完成特征压缩,最后在softmax ...

Hobbyist preferences for pet freshwater turtles
Abstract The burgeoning pet trade is a primary threat to wild freshwater turtles worldwide. Although the risks from commercial exploitation of turtles have been discussed widely, there is little empirical research on preferences for pet turtles from a hobbyists’ perspective.

双垂鹤鸵(Casuarius casuarius)是一种单态性鸟,从外观形态上很难准确区分其性别,对人工配对、繁殖和饲养造成了极大阻碍。本实验选取RASEF基因作为靶基因,利用其同源序列进行引物设计,对3只已知性别和11只未知性别鹤鸵进行PCR扩增和测序,根据RASEF基因序列中的SNP位点判断鹤鸵的性别。结果发现,在3个已知个体中,雄性个体扩增序列的第119、157和162位的基因型分别为纯合子G/G、T/T和C/C,雌性个体中则呈现杂合位点G/A、T/G、C/T。通过对11个未知性别鹤鸵进行鉴定 ...

Automating the analysis of public saliency and attitudes toward biodiversity from digital media
Abstract Measuring public attitudes toward wildlife provides crucial insights into human relationships with nature and helps monitor progress toward Global Biodiversity Framework targets. Yet, conducting such assessments at a global scale presents challenges.

This research reveals the functional stability of mixed species foraging flocks (MSF) and their foraging height change with different taxonomic differences along the elevational gradient at Knuckles Montane Reserve, Sri Lanka. This offers new insights into how MSFs sustain with the elevational gradients supporting the altitudinal shifting species ...
