Broad snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) growth under different rearing densities
Abstract The effect of density on growth in body mass (BM) and total length (TL) of Caiman latirostris hatchlings raised in small pens (area 0.36 m2), for 3 months, was investigated. Twelve animals from each of three clutches were randomly distributed (1, 2 or 3 individuals) to two replicates at low rearing density (LRD: 0.12 m2/individual), medium ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Nasal soft‐tissue anatomy of Triceratops and other horned dinosaurs
Abstract Although ceratopsid dinosaurs possess a characteristically hypertrophied narial region, soft‐tissue anatomy associated with such a skeletal structure and their biological significance remain poorly understood. The present study provides the first comprehensive hypothesis on the soft‐tissue anatomy in the ceratopsid rostrum based on the Extant ...

Abstract The Late Triassic–Early Jurassic fissures of the Bristol Channel area (southwest England and south Wales) are renowned for their diverse vertebrate faunas. These assemblages have yielded an array of predominantly small‐bodied forms that are crucial to our understanding of the early evolution of several major tetrapod clades.

Woody breast compromises meat quality leading to reduced consumer appeal. Although its causes are unclear, improvements observed with certain dietary supplements suggest that gut health may influence woody breast development. Ribonucleotide reductase subunit RRM2 is vital for mitochondrial function and gastrointestinal integrity, and alteration in its ...

Levantamento de ninhos de jacarés em savanas inundáveis, Brasil. [PDF]
As planícies de inundação ocorrem no Brasil e em outras áreas na América do Sul. Algumas dessas são imensas, como é o caso do Pantanal, do "cerrado" no Estado de Rondônia e das Ilhas do Bananal, mas a maioria se espalha entre mosaicos ao longo de rios ...

Selenomethionine can ameliorate arachidonic acid‐induced colonic injury through synergistic mechanisms, including alleviating inflammatory responses, improving barrier integrity, enhancing antioxidant capacity by upregulating selenoprotein expression, selectively regulating AA metabolism to reduce pro‐inflammatory oxylipins and promote the production ...
