Development of short-target primers for species identification in biological studies of Carnivora. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2023
Abstract Noninvasive genetic sampling greatly facilitates studies on the genetics, ecology, and conservation of threatened species. Species identification is often a prerequisite for noninvasive sampling‐based biological studies. Due to the low quantity and quality of genomic DNA from noninvasive samples, high‐performance short‐target PCR primers are ...

Population density and genetic diversity are positively correlated in wild felids globally

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 10, Page 1858-1869, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Insights into the biological and evolutionary traits of species, and their ability to cope with global changes, can be gained by studying genetic diversity within species. A cornerstone hypothesis in evolutionary and conservation biology suggests that genetic diversity decreases with decreasing population size, however, population size is ...

Novel Alpha-, Beta-, and Gammaherpesviruses in Neotropical Carnivores of Brazil. [PDF]

open access: yesTransbound Emerg Dis
The knowledge regarding infectious agents affecting wildlife is crucial for species’ conservation. We hypothesized that herpesviruses are present in wild Neotropical carnivores. Herein, we used DNA polymerase and glycoprotein B broad‐spectrum PCRs to molecularly survey the presence of herpesviruses in spleen and/or lung samples of 53 wild Neotropical ...

Mesopredators in forest edges 森林边缘地带的中级捕食者

open access: yesWildlife Letters, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 107-118, September 2023., 2023
A key Asian mesopredator (leopards cats) is positively associated with forest edges and oil palm plantations. Abstract Fragments and edges account for most remaining forest habitats globally. Apex predators and megaherbivores often decline in these degraded habitats while smaller generalist omnivores can persist or thrive in forest edges, especially if

Understanding carnivore interactions in a cold arid trans‐Himalayan landscape: What drives co‐existence patterns within predator guild along varying resource gradients?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
The study looks at the competitive dynamics of the red fox, a native mesopredator, and free‐ranging dog, an introduced mesopredator, as well as their interactions with the region's top carnivores, the snow leopard and the Himalayan wolf, in northern India's trans‐Himalayan landscape.
