Geographic patterns of skull variation in two species of cavies of the genus Microcavia (Rodentia, caviidae) [PDF]

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
We study the geographical variation of the skull in the cavies Microcavia australis and M. maenas and its association with environmental variables. We tested four hypotheses previously proposed to explain the geographic patterns of morphological variation i) heat conservation; ii) heat dissipation; iii) primary productivity and iv) seasonality. We used

CT anatomy of the lungs, bronchi and trachea in the Mature Guinea pig (cavia porcellus)

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 1179-1193, May 2023., 2023
According to studies on guinea pigs, the right and left have the volume, and the heart is located between them on the midline without a tendency to the left. It seems that one of the reasons for the reluctance of the heart to the left and its placement on the midline in the guinea pig is that the volume of the two lungs is equal.

Pitfalls of using sequence databases for heterologous expression studies – a technical review

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 601, Issue 9, Page 1611-1623, 1 May 2023., 2023
Abstract figure legend Projects involving heterologous gene expression are often characterised by similar steps. Initially, database research (A) is necessary to retrieve information of full or partial sequences of a gene of interest. A multitude of genome assemblies are annotated and deposited in public databases or are available for refined search ...

Mapping and monitoring tick (Acari, Ixodida) distribution, seasonality, and host associations in the United Kingdom between 2017 and 2020

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 152-163, March 2023., 2023
The risk of tick‐borne disease is linked to the distribution, seasonal activity and host associations of vector species, all of which can be informed by surveillance and citizen science The Tick Surveillance Scheme (established since 2005) in the United Kingdom monitors distribution changes in Ixodes ricinus and other native or imported vector species ...
