Analysis of the MUC1 Gene and its Polymorphism in Capra hircus [PDF]

Journal of Dairy Science, 2004
The objective of our study was to demonstrate the existence of a repetitive region in the goat MUC1 gene and to develop a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) protocol to analyze its polymorphism in different breeds. Using 2 primers derived from the bovine MUC1 sequence, a PCR fragment was obtained and cloned. The sequence analysis shows that the repetitive

DNA metabarcoding reveals wolf dietary patterns in the northern Alps and Jura Mountains

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Understanding predator–prey interactions is crucial for wildlife management and human–wildlife coexistence, particularly in multi‐use landscapes such as western Europe. As wolves Canis lupus recolonize their former habitats, knowledge of their diet is essential for conservation, management and public acceptance.

Contrasting properties of predation and scavenging networks governed by megaherbivores in an African savannah

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 9, Page 1656-1671, September 2026.
For the first time, predation and scavenging networks are directly compared within a single ecosystem. Using an 8‐year dataset of African mammals, including megaherbivores, this study reveals distinct structural rules and body mass constraints, providing a scalable framework for studying consumer–resource dynamics and ecosystem function.

Behavioural state identification from ultra‐high‐frequency movement data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2713-2728, September 2026.
Abstract The hidden Markov model (HMM) is a central framework for identifying behavioural state changes from animal movement data. In this context, movement is typically represented as a sequence of observed metrics, such as step length and turning angle distributions, generated by an unobserved behavioural state process.

Myths, Furphies and Red Herrings Associated With Dingo Ecology and Management

Ecological Management &Restoration, Volume 27, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Variability in the inferential strength or reliability of different scientific studies creates uncertainty in the status of knowledge on a given subject, giving rise to multiple myths, furphies and red herrings in scientific discourse. This is particularly true in the case of dingo ecology and management in Australia, which exemplifies common ...

Morphological measurements and body indices for Cuban Creole goats and their crossbreds

Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2011
In this work, linear body measures were taken and production indices calculated for 100 Cuban Creole goats and 100 crossbred goats in order to aid in the characterization of animal genetic resources in Cuba. Low variation was found for all indices of the
