Effects of In Vivo Exposure to Roundup® on Immune System of Caiman latirostris. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of Roundup® (RU, glyphosate-based formulation) on some parameters of the immune system and growth of Caiman latirostris. Seventy-two caimans (20-day-old) from Proyecto Yacaré (Gob. Santa Fe/MUPCN) were used.

Evaluating growth in Macrospondylus bollensis (Crocodylomorpha, Teleosauroidea) in the Toarcian Posidonia Shale, Germany

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 5, September/October 2023., 2023
Abstract The study of how organisms grow is a fundamental aspect of palaeontology. Growth in teleosauroids is poorly understood and little studied, especially in an ontogenetic sense. We investigate growth rates of the most common and abundant teleosauroid, Macrospondylus bollensis, in which a large sample of multiple body sizes is available from the ...

Cross-species microsatellite amplification in South American Caimans (Caiman spp and Paleosuchus palpebrosus)

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2006
Microsatellite DNA markers have been used to assess genetic diversity and to study ecological behavioral characteristics in animals. Although these markers are powerful tools, their development is labor intensive and costly.
