Bats as instructive animal models for studying longevity and aging. [PDF]

Ann N Y Acad Sci
Every organism's lifespan depends on the balance of protective and regenerative versus degenerative processes. Bats (Chiroptera) live far longer than is predicted by their small body size. Recent studies explore mechanisms underlying their longevity and have raised the question of how their aging compares to that of equally long‐lived primates.

An updated synthesis of and outstanding questions in the olfactory and vomeronasal systems in bats: Genetics asks questions only anatomy can answer

The Anatomical Record, Volume 306, Issue 11, Page 2765-2780, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The extensive diversity observed in bat nasal chemosensory systems has been well‐documented at the histological level. Understanding how this diversity evolved and developing hypotheses as to why particular patterns exist require a phylogenetic perspective, which was first outlined in the work of anatomist Kunwar Bhatnagar.

Bat responses to climate change: a systematic review

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 19-33, February 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Understanding how species respond to climate change is key to informing vulnerability assessments and designing effective conservation strategies, yet research efforts on wildlife responses to climate change fail to deliver a representative overview due to inherent biases.

Identifying the causes and consequences of assembly gaps using a multiplatform genome assembly of a bird‐of‐paradise

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 263-286, January 2021., 2021
Abstract Genome assemblies are currently being produced at an impressive rate by consortia and individual laboratories. The low costs and increasing efficiency of sequencing technologies now enable assembling genomes at unprecedented quality and contiguity.

Cryptic hybridization between the ancient lineages of Natterer's bat (Myotis nattereri)

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 13, July 2024.
Abstract Studying hybrid zones that form between morphologically cryptic taxa offers valuable insights into the mechanisms of cryptic speciation and the evolution of reproductive barriers. Although hybrid zones have long been the focus of evolutionary studies, the awareness of cryptic hybrid zones increased recently due to rapidly growing evidence of ...
