Effect of locomotor preference on the evolution of mitochondrial genes in Bovidae [PDF]
Scientific ReportsLocomotor preferences and habitat types may drive animal evolution. In this study, we speculated that locomotor preference and habitat type may have diverse influences on Bovidae mitochondrial genes. We used selection pressure and statistical analysis to

Host Phylogeny Shapes Gut Microbiota and Predicted Functions in Captive Artiodactyls [PDF]
MicroorganismsHost phylogeny can imprint the gut microbiota, but it is often masked by diet and environment. Leveraging the standardized husbandry of a zoological collection, we profiled fecal microbiota from 55 captive artiodactyls representing 12 species in Bovidae,

Molecular Diversity of the Casein Gene Cluster in Bovidae: Insights from SNP Microarray Analysis [PDF]
AnimalsThe casein gene cluster spans 250 to 350 kb across mammalian species and is flanked by non-coding DNA with largely unknown functions. These regions likely harbor elements regulating the expression of the 4 casein genes.

A mid-miocene age for the Slanci formation near Belgrade (Serbia), based on a record of the primitive antelope Eotragus cf. Clavatus from Višnjica [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2007 In a borhole at Veliko Selo near Belgrade in the Miocene lacustrine sediments Slanci, which are locally known as the Slanačka Serija, a mammal tooth was found. The age of these deposits is under discussion.
