Selfish or altruistic? An analysis of alarm call function in wild capuchin monkeys, Cebus apella nigritus [PDF]

, 2008
Alarm calls facilitate some antipredatory benefits of group living but may endanger the caller by attracting the predator's attention. A number of hypotheses invoking kin selection and individual selection have been proposed to explain how such behaviour

Determining the timeline of gonadal and genital differentiation in male and female equine fetuses allows for early detection and intervention in malformations

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Sexual differentiation in the equine fetus involves coordinated morphogenetic processes that shape both the gonads and the genital ducts. Although the formation of testes and ovaries has been relatively well documented, the temporal dynamics and morphometric patterns of the mesonephric (Wolffian) and paramesonephric (Müllerian) ducts remain ...
