ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

Development of a reliable PCR‐based protocol for molecular sexing of king vultures Sarcoramphus papa
The king vulture Sarcoramphus papa is a large Neotropical scavenger that lacks external sexual dimorphism, complicating demographic, ecological, and conservation studies. Reliable sex identification is therefore essential, particularly for wild and managed populations. In this study, we assessed and optimized a PCR‐based molecular sexing protocol for S.
