Assessing genetic structuring for endangered "Chelonia mydas" (Testudines: Cheloniidae) in southwest Cuba using microsatellites

open access: yesRevista de Investigaciones Marinas, 2023
Understanding the population genetic structure of the species is essential for determining the possible management units (UM) and their conservation and/or sustainable exploitation with it.

Predicting the effects of climate change on sea turtle nesting habitat in Florida [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rising global temperatures threaten the survival of many plant and animal species. Having already risen at an unprecedented rate in the past century, temperatures are predicted to rise between 0.3 and 7.5C in North America over the next 100 years ...

Indirect effects of fast‐growing urban development on wildlife in a coastal protected area of Costa Rica

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We studied the effects of urban growth on wildlife near Parque Nacional Marino las Baulas, Costa Rica. Since 1991, buildings increased 1007%, mainly in the buffer zone. We identified eight native species extracting garbage from containers, with raccoons (Procyon lotor) comprising most detections (84%), and four other species being potential sea turtle ...

Global phylogeography and evolution of chelonid fibropapilloma-associated herpesvirus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A global phylogeny for chelonid fibropapilloma-associated herpesvirus (CFPHV), the most likely aetiological agent of fibropapillomatosis (FP) in sea turtles, was inferred, using dated sequences, through Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo analysis and used

Individualised niches in a variable environment—Consequences for environmental change responses

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1188-1203, April 2026.
Abstract Intraspecific trait variation (ITV) can be important for population performance in a variable and changing environment because individuals with different traits have different fitness responses. Furthermore, there are three mechanisms via which individuals can interact with their environment to potentially improve fitness: niche conformance ...

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 3, Page 260-320, March 2026.
Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...
