The Role of Somatic Cell Synchronization in Nuclear Transfer and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Wild Felids. [PDF]

Zoo Biol
Cell cycle and cells subjected to synchronization in G0/G1. ABSTRACT Human interference reduces wild felid populations. Somatic cell nuclear transfer and the use of induced pluripotent stem cells are potential conservation strategies. To improve the efficiency of these strategies, it is essential to establish adequate protocols for the synchronization ...

Ecological modeling, biogeography, and phenotypic analyses setting the tiger cats' hyperdimensional niches reveal a new species. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Recently, the tiger-cat species complex was split into Leopardus tigrinus and Leopardus guttulus, along with other proposed schemes. We performed a detailed analysis integrating ecological modeling, biogeography, and phenotype of the four originally ...

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

Ecol 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 ...

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

Transbound 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 ...

Cytogenetic analyses of ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) and tigrinus (Leopardus tigrinus) oocytes collected after ovarian stimulation

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Research and Animal Science, 2009
Este estudo representa a primeira avaliação da maturação nuclear de oócitos por análise citogenética realizada em duas espécies de felídeos brasileiros ameaçados de extinção: L. pardalis (n=5) e L. tigrinus (n=4). Os animais foram submetidos à estimulação ovariana alternada com eCG-hCG e pFSH-pLH a cada quatro meses pelo período de dois anos ...

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

Global 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 ...

Photographic documentation of melanism in bobcats (Lynx rufus) in the Greater Everglades. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We report the rare observations of melanistic bobcats in their natural environment within the Greater Everglades Ecosystem. We also discuss the factors that could support melanistic phenotypes within this subtropical environment. Abstract We document the presence of bobcats (Lynx rufus) that demonstrate melanism in the Greater Everglades.
