The impact of gnawing byMicrocavia australison the survival ofGeoffroea decorticansplants was studied in the Monte Desert of Argentina. Sampled plants (N=105) were selected randomly from two different colonies ofM. australis. For each plant sampled the following properties were measured: the diameter of the trunk at ground level; the distance to the ...

Genetic structure of southern populations of Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris (Rodentia: Caviidae)
Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2023Abstract The capybara (Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris) is a large semi-aquatic rodent with a broad distribution across South America. Although it is a relatively common and well-known species, there are few studies on its evolutionary history. Consequently, we decided to investigate the genetic diversity, population structure, and demographic

Development of yolk sac inversion in Galea spixii and Cavia porcellus (Rodentia, Caviidae)
Placenta, 2012Caviomorph development includes an inverted yolk sac. Since principle processes are not understood, we investigated its differentiation in Galea and re-examined material from the guinea pig. Galea showed the typical caviomorph conditions in blastocyst development and the nature of the definitive yolk sac, formed of the visceral layer that became ...

Changing Only Slowly: The Role of Phylogenetic Niche Conservatism in Caviidae (Rodentia) Speciation
Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2020The dynamics of species diversification have attracted significant scientific attention in recent decades. Many lineages tend to maintain their niche characteristics over evolutionary time, a phenomenon known as phylogenetic niche conservatism (NC), which can slow the processes of ecological speciation by diversification selection.

Whole mitochondrial genome sequence for an osteoarthritis model of Guinea pig (Caviidae; Cavia )
Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014Animal models played an important role in osteoarthritis studies. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the Guinea pig was reported for the first time. The total length of the mitogenome was 16,797 bp. It contained the typical structure, including two ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes and one non-coding ...

Journal of Parasitology, 2010
Anoplocephalid cestodes have a worldwide distribution, but relatively few species are known from South American rodents. By examining the collections of the Harold W. Manter Laboratory of Parasitology and the United States National Parasite Collection, 6 new species of Monoecocestus Beddard, 1914, are described, along with a redescription of ...

Abstract The genus Galea Meyen, 1833 includes at least five species of terrestrial, diurnal and herbivorous cavies that occupy grasslands and rocky scrub areas at both high and low elevations in South America. According to the available molecular and morphological data, Galea comes Thomas, 1919 is restricted to highland areas above 2000 ...
