Implications of past and present genetic connectivity for management of the saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) [PDF]
Effective management of protected species requires information on appropriate evolutionary and geographic population boundaries and knowledge of how the physical environment and life‐history traits combine to shape the population structure and ...

New records of Hepatozoon and Oswaldofilaria from saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) in Australia [PDF]
Diseases affecting wild Australian saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) are rarely reported due to the difficulty in capturing animals and obtaining samples. In this investigation, we identified two haemoparasites (Hepatozoon and a filarial nematode)

A genetic linkage map for the saltwater crocodile (
Background Genome elucidation is now in high gear for many organisms, and whilst genetic maps have been developed for a broad array of species, surprisingly, no such maps exist for a crocodilian, or indeed any other non-avian member of the Class Reptilia.

Spatial Ecology of Estuarine Crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) Nesting in a Fragmented Landscape [PDF]
The role that oil palm plays in the Lower Kinabatangan region of Eastern Sabah is of considerable scientific and conservation interest, providing a model habitat for many tropical regions as they become increasingly fragmented.

Behaviours of farmed saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) housed individually or in groups [PDF]
Saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) are farmed in Australia primarily for their skins and meat. Commercially, they are raised in group pens as hatchlings and grower crocodiles and then moved to unitised (individual) pens for the final finishing ...

Crocodylus porosus: a potential source of anticancer molecules. [PDF]
Cancer remains a global threat resulting in significant morbidity and mortality despite advances in therapeutic interventions, suggesting urgency for identification of anticancer agents. Crocodiles thrive in polluted habitat, feed on germ-infested meat, are exposed to carcinogenic heavy metals, are the very few species to survive the catastrophic ...

Crocodylus porosus Sera a Potential Source to Identify Novel Epigenetic Targets: In Silico Analysis [PDF]
We have previously found that sera from Crocodylus porosus contain anticancer agents and the treatment of MCF7 cells with this serum resulted in the differential expression of 51 genes.

Digital dissection and three-dimensional interactive models of limb musculature in the Australian estuarine crocodile (Crocodylus porosus). [PDF]
Digital dissection is a relatively new technique that has enabled scientists to gain a better understanding of vertebrate anatomy. It can be used to rapidly disseminate detailed, three-dimensional information in an easily accessible manner that reduces ...

Understanding the structure and blemishes of Australian farmed saltwater crocodile (Crocodylus porosus) leather [PDF]
Australian saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) are farmed to harvest their belly skin to produce high quality leather products. This is the first descriptive study to explore the structure of leather across different finishes; incrust, matte and ...
