A compendium of chromatin interaction maps in the Giant Panda genome. [PDF]

open access: yesCommun Biol
Elucidating transcriptional regulatory mechanisms within tissues is essential for both physiological and pathological studies of giant panda. Here, we generate transcriptomic profiles and construct 3D genome maps for nine giant panda tissues.

First detection and molecular identification of Babesia sp. from the giant panda, Ailuropoda melanoleuca, in China

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Parasitic infections are among the important causes of death of giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) that hamper their survival in the wild.

Gut microbiota composition and metabolomic profiles of wild and captive Chinese monals (Lophophorus lhuysii)

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2020
Background The Chinese monal (Lophophorus lhuysii) is an endangered bird species, with a wild population restricted to the mountains in southwest China, and only one known captive population in the world.

Contrasting Vaginal Bacterial Communities Between Estrus and Non-estrus of Giant Pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Bacterial infection and imbalance of bacterial community in the genitourinary system of giant panda could affect the reproductive health. In severe cases, it can also lead to abortion.

The mitochondrial genome of the giant panda tick Haemaphysalis flava (Acari, Ixodidae) from Southwest China

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The tick Haemaphysalis flava (Acari, Ixodidae) is an obligatory blood-feeding ectoparasite of the giant panda and is also a vector for transmission of pathogenic microorganisms.

Possible Effects of Early Maternal Separation on the Gut Microbiota of Captive Adult Giant Pandas

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Maternal deprivation (MD) in early life induces dysbiosis in the host gut microbiota, which is a key determinant of abnormal behavior in stress model individuals.

Giant Pandas Are Macronutritional Carnivores [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Giant pandas are unusual in belonging to a primarily carnivorous clade and yet being extremely specialized herbivores that feed almost exclusively on highly fibrous bamboo [1]. Paradoxically, they appear inconsistently adapted to their plant diet, bearing a mix of herbivore and carnivore traits.

Fecal Metabolomics Reveals the Foraging Strategies of Giant Pandas for Different Parts of Bamboo

open access: yesAnimals, 2023
Climate change-induced food shortages pose major threats to wildlife conservation, and the exclusive reliance of giant pandas on bamboo makes them particularly vulnerable.

Intestinal acetic acid regulates the synthesis of sex pheromones in captive giant pandas

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
As a typical solitary animal, adult giant pandas rely on chemical signals (sex pheromones) to transmit reproductive information during oestrous. Although researchers have confirmed that the gut microbiota is related to the emission and reception of sex ...

Combined urine metabolomics and 16S rDNA sequencing analyses reveals physiological mechanism underlying decline in natural mating behavior of captive giant pandas

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The decline in natural mating behavior is the primary reason underlying in the poor population growth of captive giant pandas. However, the influencing factors and underlying mechanisms remain unclear to data. It is speculated that the decline in natural
