Influence of nearby environment on recreational bycatch of sea turtles at fishing piers in the eastern Gulf of Mexico

Endangered Species Research, 2023
Incidental bycatch of sea turtles from recreational fisheries is generally undocumented globally. At Gulf of Mexico fishing piers in the USA, bycatch is a source of injury and potential mortality of sea turtles.

First detailed morphological description of the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) caught from the Yellow Sea of Korea

Journal of Ecology and Environment, 2014
To date, no study has reported detailed morphological characteristics of Korean sea turtles. Due to the lack of such basic information on Korean sea turtles, further related studies have been difficult in South Korea.

Expression of human mutant cyclin dependent kinase 4, Cyclin D and telomerase extends the life span but does not immortalize fibroblasts derived from loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) [PDF]

, 2021
Conservation of the genetic resources of endangered animals is crucial for future generations. The loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) is a critically endangered species, because of human hunting, hybridisation with other sea turtle species, and ...

Surface microbiota of Mediterranean loggerhead sea turtles unraveled by 16S and 18S amplicon sequencing

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
The loggerhead sea turtle is considered a keystone species with a major ecological role in Mediterranean marine environment. As is the case with other wild reptiles, their outer microbiome is rarely studied.

Epibionts Reflect Spatial and Foraging Ecology of Gulf of Mexico Loggerhead Turtles (Caretta caretta)

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Sea turtles are exposed to numerous threats during migrations to their foraging grounds and at those locations. Therefore, information on sea turtle foraging and spatial ecology can guide conservation initiatives, yet it is difficult to directly observe ...

Male production in green sea turtles under a feminizing climate: A validated model of sex ratios with temperature-dependent sex determination. [PDF]

J Anim Ecol
This study introduces validated methods to predict sex ratios in wild Green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) nests. It quantifies beach‐scale temperature heterogeneity, incorporates clutch‐level variation in thermal sensitivity and models temperature effects across the thermosensitive period, demonstrating how temporal temperature dynamics and spatial ...

Gastrointestinal helminth community of loggerhead sea turtle Caretta caretta in the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2012
We analysed the intestinal helminth community of 70 loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta with a curved carapace length ranging from 25 to 85.4 cm, recovered dead in neritic foraging habitats in the Adriatic Sea in 1995 to 2004. The overall prevalence of infection was high (70.0%), with a mean abundance of 36.8 helminth parasites per turtle.

Basin-wide estimates of loggerhead turtle abundance in the Mediterranean Sea derived from line transect surveys

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Loggerhead turtles are a globally vulnerable species of marine turtle. Broad-scale patterns of distribution and abundance can provide regional managers a tool to effectively conserve and manage this species at basin and sub-basin scales.
