Molecular Phylogeny of Deer (Cervidae: Artiodactyla)

Russian Journal of Genetics, 2005
Sequences of mitochondrial genes 12S and 16S rRNA (2 445 bp) and the region of the nuclear beta-spectrin gene (828 bp) were analyzed in members of the family Cervidae and in other artiodactyls. Several molecular synapomorphies characteristic both of Cervidae and musk deer have been found.

Structure and evolution of artiodactyla haptoglobins

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1978
1. Artiodactyla haptoglobins (Hps), goat, sheep and cattle (family Bovidae), and pig (family Suidae) were structurally characterized. 2. The polymeric Hp systems of goat, sheep and cattle were similar to the polymeric human Hp system, while the monomeric system of pig was more comparable to the monomeric human form. 3.

Dentition of Gobiohyus and a Reevaluation of the Helohyidae (Artiodactyla)

Journal of Mammalogy, 1977
The late Eocene bunodont artiodactyl Gobiohyus is reevaluated on the basis of new dental material and contains three species— G. orientalis, G. pressidens , and G. robustus. Gobiohyus yuanchuensis Young (1937) is reassigned as ? Indohyus yuanchuensis.

A Molecular Supertree of the Artiodactyla

2004
Despite the size of the order and the conservation importance of many of its members, no complete species-level phylogeny of extant artiodactyls (sensu stricto) exists. Matrix Representation with Parsimony, which has been used already in reconstructions of primate and carnivore phylogeny, was used to build a supertree of the order.

Haemoglobins and erythrocyte sickling in the artiodactyla: A survey

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1977
Abstract 1. 1. A survey of the distribution and conditions causing in vitro erythrocyte sickling has been carried out on 104 animals representing 32 species of the Order Artiodactyla. 2. 2. Sickling was observed in 9 out of 13 species of deer and in a goat and mouflon. 3. 3.

The entotympanic in late fetal artiodactyla (Mammalia)

Journal of Morphology, 2013
ABSTRACTThe entotympanic is a neomorphic component of the bulla tympanica of placental mammals. Ontogenetically, its rostral component seems to be derived from the tubal cartilage, whereas its caudal component is normally connected with the sheath of the tympanohyal; the present study indicates additional sources of the caudal entotympanic.

Prediction of body weight of fossil Artiodactyla

Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1983
Many dimensions of the postcranial skeleton of ruminant artiodactyls scale closely with body weight and are therefore potentially useful as predictors of body weight in fossil species. Using 45 dimensions of the skeleton a series of predictive equations was generated based on the scaling relationships of the family Bovidae.

Prevalence of Ossicones in Giraffidae (Artiodactyla, Mammalia)

Journal of Mammalogy, 1988
Geraads (1986) suggested that extinct Giraffidae differed from the two extant species in having no true ossicones. True ossicones are epiphyseal growths. Geraads (1986) suggested that all extinct Giraffidae have horns which are, by contrast, apophyseal extensions of the frontal bone.
