Bats increased foraging activity at experimental prey patches near hibernacula

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, 2023
Emerging infectious diseases in wildlife can threaten vulnerable host populations. Actions targeting habitat improvements to aid population resilience and recovery may be beneficial long‐term strategies, yet testing the efficacy of such strategies before

Regional recaptures of bats (Chiroptera, Vespertilionidae) ringed in Eastern Ukraine

open access: yesZoodiversity, 2020
Bats are volant and highly mobile mammals that could cover up to 2000 km seasonally (one-way migration). But the level of mobility among different roosts sites in a breeding season, and among breeding areas and hibernation sites is poorly studied.

Mammalian eDNA on herbaceous vegetation? Validating a qPCR assay for detection of an endangered rodent

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2022
Vegetation is an underutilized medium for environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling. eDNA methods leveraging water as a substrate exclude application to many terrestrial species.

Revisiting $$B\rightarrow K^{(*)} \nu {\bar{\nu }}$$ B → K ( ∗ ) ν ν ¯ decays in the Standard Model and beyond

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
In this letter we revisit the Standard Model predictions for $${\mathcal {B}}(B\rightarrow K^{(*)}\nu {\bar{\nu }})$$ B ( B → K ( ∗ ) ν ν ¯ ) and discuss the opportunities that open up when combining its partial decay rate with that of $$B\rightarrow K^{(

Filoviruses and bats [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Australia, 2017
While Reston and Lloviu viruses have never been associated with human disease, the other filoviruses cause outbreaks of hemorrhagic fever characterised by person-to-person transmission and high case fatality ratios. Cumulative evidence suggests that bats are the most likely reservoir hosts of the filoviruses. Ecological investigations following Marburg

Bat flight [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2015
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Bats are unique among extant flying animals, as they have compliant wings and an echolocation sensory system that distinguish them from birds and insects. Flying in the dark, guided by echolocation, has influenced the aerodynamics of bat flight perhaps more than previously realized and resulted in a ...

Venipuncture in bats [PDF]

open access: yesLab Animal, 2010
Though not as common as small rodents in laboratory settings, bats are being increasingly used in research studies. Knowledge of proper blood sampling techniques is essential for care and management of bats.

Making a bat: The developmental basis of bat evolution [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2020
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Abstract Bats are incredibly diverse, both morphologically and taxonomically. Bats are the only mammalian group to have achieved powered flight, an adaptation that is hypothesized to have allowed them to colonize various and diverse ecological niches.
