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 ...

An evaluation of platforms for processing camera‐trap data using artificial intelligence
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, Page 459-477, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Camera traps have quickly transformed the way in which many ecologists study the distribution of wildlife species, their activity patterns and interactions among members of the same ecological community. Although they provide a cost‐effective method for monitoring multiple species over large spatial and temporal scales, the time required to ...

Wildlife hosts for OIE-Listed diseases: considerations regarding global wildlife trade and host-pathogen relationships. [PDF]
Vet Med Sci, 2017 The expanding international wildlife trade, combined with a lack of surveillance for key animal diseases in most countries, represents a potential pathway for transboundary disease movement. We reviewed peer‐reviewed literature for reports of 73 OIE‐Listed terrestrial animal diseases in wild animals and found 528 possible wild animal hosts using our ...

Aligning conservation and public health goals to tackle unsustainable trade of mammals
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 4, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 Abstract Unsustainable wildlife trade is a major driver of biodiversity loss and an important public health threat. Yet, effective wildlife trade regulation is currently at odds with food security and economic incentives provided by this global, multibillion‐dollar industry.

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 870-883, June 2021., 2021 Abstract Megadams are among the key modern drivers of habitat and biodiversity loss in emerging economies. The Balbina Hydroelectric Dam of Central Brazilian Amazonia inundated 312,900 ha of primary forests and created approximately 3500 variable‐sized islands that still harbor vertebrate populations after nearly 3 decades after isolation. We estimated

Austral Ecology, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2025.We found rich and compositionally different assemblages of medium and large‐sized mammals in protected areas on the southern edge of Amazon. However, both have high rates of mammal defaunation. We argue that anthropogenic threats in the Amazon Arc of Deforestation are eroding large ungulate populations, especially peccaries.
