Factors Affecting Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus Urophasianus) Survival and Movement in South-Central Utah [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Wildlife Diseases, 2021
To better understand the potential avian diseases in Greater Sage-grouse ( Centrocercus urophasianus ) in the Great Basin in Nevada, US, we collected 31 blood samples March-April 2014 and tested for antibodies to eight viruses and two bacteria. Specifically, sera were tested for antibodies to avian leukosis virus type A, B, and J (ALV-A, ALV-B, and ALV-

Experimental chronic noise is related to elevated fecal corticosteroid metabolites in lekking male greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS One, 2012
There is increasing evidence that individuals in many species avoid areas exposed to chronic anthropogenic noise, but the impact of noise on those who remain in these habitats is unclear.

A flexible approach for assessing functional landscape connectivity, with application to greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS One, 2013
Connectivity of animal populations is an increasingly prominent concern in fragmented landscapes, yet existing methodological and conceptual approaches implicitly assume the presence of, or need for, discrete corridors. We tested this assumption by developing a flexible conceptual approach that does not assume, but allows for, the presence of discrete ...

Fighting isn’t sexy in lekking Greater Sage-grouse ( Centrocercus urophasianus ) [PDF]

open access: goldWildlife Biology, 2022
Sage grouse Centrocercus urophasianus have been translocated in at least seven states and one Canadian province, but little published information documents the success of these attempts. Historical and recent efforts at translocations are reviewed, their success evaluated and recommendations ...

Territoriality and non-random mating in sage grouse, Centrocercus urophasianus

open access: bronzeAnimal Behaviour Monographs, 1973
Section I. Previous work has indicated that sage grouse Centrocercus wophasianus practice extreme polygyny (Simon 1940; Scott 1942; Patterson 1952; Lumsden 1968). The behavioural interactions that regulate this mating system have remained unclear, as the males' behaviour suggests both territoriality and dominance hierarchy. Section II.

Movements of female Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus during incubation recess [PDF]

open access: hybridIbis, 2018
We combined GPS data‐loggers, VHF transmitters and DVR video‐monitoring to measure fine‐scale movement patterns during daily incubation recesses by female Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus, a species with uniparental incubation that has experienced widespread population decline and distributional contraction.

Low neutral genetic diversity in isolated Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations in northwest Wyoming [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Condor, 2014
Habitat loss is well recognized as an immediate threat to biodiversity. Depending on the dispersal capabilities of the species, increased habitat fragmentation often results in reduced functional connectivity and gene flow followed by population decline and a higher likelihood of eventual extinction.

Isolation and characterization of microsatellite loci in Greater Sage‐Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) [PDF]

open access: bronzeMolecular Ecology Notes, 2003
AbstractPrimers for five polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed for Greater Sage‐Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) using an enrichment/detection protocol. The high level of polymorphism (nine to 33 alleles) suggests that these loci will be applicable for investigating mating systems and paternity analysis as well as population genetics.
