Genetic population structure of the critically endangered stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus) in the Black Sea basin: Implications for conservation

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 12, Page 1926-1939, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus) is a species of great conservation concern throughout its range. Over the past century, it has experienced a dramatic decline in abundance and distribution in the Black Sea basin. Information regarding the genetic structure of the species is very limited in the region, despite its crucial importance for ...

Antler tine homologies and cervid systematics: A review of past and present controversies with special emphasis on Elaphurus davidianus

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 306, Issue 1, Page 5-28, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Antlers are the most conspicuous trait of cervids and have been used in the past to establish a classification of their fossil and living representatives. Since the availability of molecular data, morphological characters have generally become less important for phylogenetic reconstructions.

Exploratory search during directed navigation in C. elegans and Drosophila larva

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Many organisms—from bacteria to nematodes to insect larvae—navigate their environments by biasing random movements. In these organisms, navigation in isotropic environments can be characterized as an essentially diffusive and undirected process.

The elusive scleral cartilages: Comparative anatomy and development in teleosts and avians

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract The sclera of all vertebrate eyes is comprised of connective tissue, with some organisms developing cartilage within this tissue. A review of the cartilages that have been described in the vertebrate sclera and their anatomical relationships is discussed together with their potential homology.
