Aposematism in mammals

Evolution, 2021
Aposematic coloration is traditionally considered to signal unpalatability or toxicity. In mammals, most research has focused on just one form of defense, namely, noxious anal secretions, and its black-and-white advertisement as exemplified by skunks.

The Melanocytes of Mammals

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1960
Melanocytes may be regarded as unicellular, pigment-secreting glands, largely though not entirely confined to the epidermis, of which they are a constant though often un-recognized cellular component. Their numerical incidence, and their branching form, with numerous dichotomizing processes, are such as to form a reticular system within the epidermis ...

Mesozoic Mammals and the Polyphyletic Origin of Mammals

Evolution, 1959
This is, in one way, a poor time to review the iViesozoic mammals and the origin of mammals. Discoveries and studies announced but not yet published fully, if at all, are extraordinarily rich and important. They include: late Cretaceous mammals from Wyoming (McKenna and associates at the University of California) ; Triassic mammals or very advanced ...

Magnetoreception in Mammals

2014
Abstract In comparison to birds, magnetoreception in mammals has been understudied. This negligence has historical and methodological causes. We summarize the paradigms that have been applied in the study of magnetoreception in mammals. We also provide an overview of mammalian taxa in which magnetoreception has been studied and indicate potential ...

Venomous mammals

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 1992
It is not widely appreciated that mammals can be venomous in the manner of snakes and lizards. However, it was first demonstrated scientifically 50 years ago in the case of the American short-tailed shrew. Subsequently, similar evidence has been obtained from European shrews and the Haitian solenodon, but research in this area has been almost ...

The life of mammals

ACM SIGGRAPH 2003 video review on Animation theater program: part 2 - Volume 146, 2003
"The Life of Mammals" presents a fascinating and complete insight into this incredible group of animals. 422 Ltd. produced the content graphics for this vast project, allowing the viewer to witness amazing scenes, impossible to film. The aim was to produce subtle, realistic visuals that were unobtrusive yet have a definite stylistic quality.

Microsporidiosis in mammals

Microbes and Infection, 2000
Microsporidia are small, single-celled, obligately intracellular parasites that have caused significant agricultural losses and interference with biomedical research. Interest in the microsporidia is growing, as these organisms are recognized as agents of opportunistic infections in persons with AIDS and in organ transplant recipients. Microsporidiosis

Magnetoreception in Mammals

2020
In comparison to birds, magnetoreception in mammals has been understudied. This negligence has historical and methodological causes. Paradigms that have been applied in the study of magnetoreception in mammals (particularly, and among others, spontaneous or conditioned nest-building assay, magnetic alignment, maze studies and direction choice tests ...

The Rise of Mammals

ACS Synthetic Biology, 2014
Mammalian synthetic biology represents a vibrant and growing technical discipline. As this nascent field matures, technologies for engineering sophisticated mammalian cell functions are enabling the development of novel therapies that address unmet medical needs. These transformative capabilities are likely to impact clinical practice in ways that have

Monogamy in Mammals

The Quarterly Review of Biology, 1977
This review considers the behavioral, ecological, and reproductive characteristics of mammals exhibiting monogamy, i.e., mating exclusivity. From a discussion of the life histories of selected species of monogamous primates, carnivores, rodents and ungulates, several trends emerge. Two forms of monogamy occur, Type I, facultative, and Type II, obligate.
