Comparison of Three Sympatric Desert Lizards: Digestive Tract Structure, Digestive Enzyme Activities, Gut Microbiota, and Metabolites

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...

Parasites at the Summit: Unexpected Geographic Distribution of the Blood Parasite Lineage Found in the Endangered Giant Lizard of Tenerife

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We combined microscopic screening and molecular phylogenetic analyses to characterize blood parasites infecting Gallotia intermedia from the coastal cliffs of Montaña de Guaza and to place these infections in a broader biogeographic context. We detected apicomplexan parasites of the genus Karyolysus infecting 53.6% of G.

Phylogenetic Reconstruction of Lung Evolution in Extant Squamata

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
The Squamata group exhibits remarkable diversity in lung structure. However, a comprehensive understanding of how this variation evolved within the clade is still lacking. To reconstruct the evolutionary history of lungs of living squamates, we conducted comparative phylogenetic analyses using categorized lung traits, such as lung type, respiratory ...
