Relationships of Cetacea (Artiodactyla) Among Mammals: Increased Taxon Sampling Alters Interpretations of Key Fossils and Character Evolution

PLoS ONE, 2009
BackgroundIntegration of diverse data (molecules, fossils) provides the most robust test of the phylogeny of cetaceans. Positioning key fossils is critical for reconstructing the character change from life on land to life in the water.Methodology ...

Increasing seroprevalence of Japanese encephalitis virus in even-toed hoofed mammals (Artiodactyla species) associated with an upsurge of human cases in South Korea

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
: Objectives: The annual incidence of Japanese encephalitis (JE) has increased markedly in South Korea since 2010. We hypothesized that this increase was associated with higher frequencies of JE virus in animals.

Limb bone scaling in hopping macropods and quadrupedal artiodactyls [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2018
Bone adaptation is modulated by the timing, direction, rate and magnitude of mechanical loads. To investigate whether frequent slow, or infrequent fast, gaits could dominate bone adaptation to load, we compared scaling of the limb bones from two ...

Within-group spatial position in Saiga tatarica (Bovidae) in the Stepnoi State Nature Sanctuary, Astrakhan Region, Russia

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2023
In group-living animals, the social structure and organisation play a significant role in survival and reproduction. Understanding the social aspects of animal lives in the wild may be crucially important for effective conservation of threatened species.

Cranial arterial patterns of the alpaca (Camelidae: Vicugna pacos) [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2017
Artiodactyl cranial arterial patterns deviate significantly from the standard mammalian pattern, most notably in the possession of a structure called the carotid rete (CR)—a subdural arterial meshwork that is housed within the cavernous venous sinus ...

High-Altitude Drives the Convergent Evolution of Alpha Diversity and Indicator Microbiota in the Gut Microbiomes of Ungulates

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Convergent evolution is an important sector of evolutionary biology. High-altitude environments are one of the extreme environments for animals, especially in the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, driving the inquiry of whether, under broader phylogeny, high ...

Approach of molecular technique to identify Artiodactyls based on mitochondrial D-loop polymorphism [PDF]

مجله بیوتکنولوژی کشاورزی, 2015
In recent year species of Artiodactyla have suffered rather decrease in populations as result of poaching. In many cases detecting the organs and tissues obtained from arrested poachers is not possible visually therefore it makes difficult to affirm the ...

Genomic representation predicts an asymptotic host adaptation of bat coronaviruses using deep learning

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionCoronaviruses (CoVs) are naturally found in bats and can occasionally cause infection and transmission in humans and other mammals. Our study aimed to build a deep learning (DL) method to predict the adaptation of bat CoVs to other mammals ...
