Integrating habitat and population dynamics to uncover dispersal-driven persistence in a reintroduced Crested Ibis metapopulation

Current Zoology
Metapopulation theory explains species persistence through dispersal-linked populations. This study links theory and conservation to predict reintroduction success in human-altered landscapes. Using the Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon) as a model system,

Why the crested ibis declined in the middle twentieth century

Biodiversity and Conservation, 2009
The crested ibis (Nipponia nippon) had declined severely from a common species to only two pairs in last century. To analyze the declining process, we established a GIS database with historical occurrences of the crested ibis based on published literatures, and layers of environmental factors such as elevation, wetland, and human activities.

Effects of Rearing Methods on the Reproduction of Reintroduced Crested Ibis Nipponia nippon on Sado Island, Japan

Ornithological science, 2022
An increasing number of reintroduction programs have been set up in recent years in an attempt to reintroduce once extinct species to their indigenous ranges and create self-sustaining populations.

[Research on the genetic polymorphism in crested ibis by RMAPD].

Yi chuan = Hereditas, 2009
The genetic polymorphism of Yangxian artificially reared 43 crested ibises (Nipponia nippon) was firstly investigated by RMAPD (random microsatellite amplify polymorphic DNA) marker. The results showed that RMAPD was more stable and polymorphic than RAPD. 2147 bands were amplified by 12 pairs of primers,of which 93 bands had polymorphisms.

The impact of predation on population dynamics of the Crested Ibis in the Qinling Mountains, Shaanxi, central China

Restoration Ecology, 2022
Predation is one of the most important extrinsic factors acting upon animal populations and is a strong selective force in the evolution of form and function.

Post‐release dispersal and breeding site suitability of reintroduced populations of the Crested Ibis in Shaanxi Province, China

Restoration Ecology, 2021
Post‐release dispersal of reintroduced animals refers to the process of successful colonization and failed settlement. To ensure the establishment and persistence of a reintroduced population, the impacts of different factors on the post‐release ...

PREVALENCE OF A SEPTICEMIA DISEASE IN THE CRESTED IBIS (NIPPONIA NIPPON) IN CHINA

Avian Diseases Digest, 2007
This study investigated six cases of septicemia in young crested ibises (Nipponia nippon). These birds all died with similar clinical signs, including sudden death, anorexia, diarrhea, and lameness. Immediately after death, the birds were necropsied; a blood sample was taken from heart and tissues were sampled from liver, lung, spleen, peritoneal mucus,

Molecular Cloning and Biochemical Analysis of Tyrosinase from the Crested Ibis in China

Biochemical Genetics, 2012
The crested ibis, one of the most endangered birds in the world, could benefit from research into its genetic diversity as a tool for conservation in the future. Tyrosinase is thought to play a major role in the production of common yellow to black melanins in birds.
