Evolution of litter size in hystricomorph rodents
, 2023 The suborder Hystricomorpha is an ideal model group for the study of rodent life-history evolution due to its wide distribution, great diversity of inhabited ecosystems and social systems. By tracking several factors, it was possible to determine the key

The myoglobin of rodents Proechimys guairae (casiragua) and Mus musculus (house mouse) [PDF]
, 1985 The amino acid sequences of the myoglobins of two rodents, the casiragua and the house mouse, have been determined. The myoglobin of casiragua differs from that of viscacha (another hystricomorph) at 6 positions. Mouse myoglobin differs from that of mole-

Plant dispersal across the tropical Atlantic by wind and sea currents [PDF]
, 2004 This review brings together evidence on the monophyly and ages of angiosperm lineages ranging across the tropical Atlantic with data on the direction, strength, and speed of sea currents and wind jets across that ocean. Mainly for pragmatic reasons (data

Theriogenology, 2017 In mammals, the embryonic and fetal development of a species has evolved to maximize neonatal survival. In this study, we use a sample of 132 embryos/fetuses of wild lowland paca (Cuniculus paca), obtained over a period of 15 years through collaborative methods with local hunters in the Amazon to describe the intrauterine development of external and ...

Resting postures in terrestrial mammalian herbivores
, 2019 For ruminants and arboreal herbivores (sloths and colobine monkeys), an influence of digestive physiology on resting postures has been postulated that is linked to the interplay of digestive anatomy and the gravity vector.

ULTRASTRUCTURE OF THE HEAD OF CTENOMYS MAULINUS SPERMATOZOON WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE NUCLEUS
, 1982 The spermatozoa of the neotropical hystricomorph rodent C. maulinus [tuco tuco] were examined cytochemically and under the transmission electron microscope. The head is flattened dorsoventrally.
