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 ...

POTENTIAL HISTORY: READING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FROM INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGES*
History and Theory, Volume 62, Issue 1, Page 3-29, March 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Until the beginning of the twentieth century, history, as a core concept of the political project of modernity, was highly concerned with the future. The many crimes, genocides, and wars perpetuated in the name of historical progress eventually caused unavoidable fractures in the way Western philosophies of history have understood change over ...

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 ...

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.

Palaeontology, Volume 65, Issue 1, January/February 2022., 2022 Abstract The Middle Jurassic witnessed the early diversification of mammal groups, including the stem‐mammalian clade, Docodonta. Recent discoveries in China indicate docodontans exhibited ecomorphological diversity akin to small‐bodied mammals living >100 million years later, in the Cenozoic.

Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2425-2445, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Granivorous rodents have been traditionally regarded as antagonistic seed predators. Agoutis (Dasyprocta spp.), however, have also been recognized as mutualistic dispersers of plants because of their role as scatter‐hoarders of seeds, especially for large‐seeded species.

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 1991 Fez-se o registro, pela primeira vez, do isolamento de Leishmania (V.) lainsoni de um mamífero silvestre, o roedor Agouti paca (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae), no Estado do Pará, Brasil. As amostras do parasita foram isoladas da pele, aparentemente íntegra, de

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

Primer reporte de albinismo en Dasyprocta fuliginosa (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae)
Mammalia aequatorialis, 2021 We documented the first case of albinism for Dasyprocta fuliginosa, based on an individual that we recorded near San Pablo de Kantensiya, in the province of Sucumbíos, Ecuador. In this report, we also include information on the perspective with regards to this finding of the Siekopai indigenous people, ancestral inhabitants of the sector.
