A COMPUTERIZED WILD TURKEY HABITAT EVALUATION SYSTEM

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1980
An economical, user‐oriented computer system for delineating areas of differing habitat suitability for wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) is presented. A linear additive model is used to add computer maps of seven key habitat criteria.

Assessment of the morphological development of the caecal tonsil in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
The post hatch (PH) development of the caecal tonsil in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) was studied from day (D) 1 post-hatch to D 140. The tonsils appeared as nodular structure on the surface of the proximal part of the caecal base.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN WINTER CENSUS AND SPRING HARVEST OF WILD TURKEYS IN NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1985
: Michigan developed a method to census wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) in winter as a basis for distributing hunters by area during spring hunts. The relationships between spring harvest and the winter census counts were analyzed for 1982, 1983, and ...

Ocular morphology and morphometry of the great egret (Ardea alba): A comprehensive anatomical description

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is widely distributed, yet knowledge of its ocular morphology remains limited. This study described the morphometry and morphology of the eyeball and its accessory glands in six specimens using radiography, morphometry, light and scanning electron microscopy, and 3D scanning.

Single-Step Methodology for Genomic Evaluation in Turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Genomic information can contribute significantly to the increase in accuracy of genetic predictions compared to using pedigree relationships alone. The main objective of this study was to compare the prediction ability of pedigree-based best linear unbiased prediction (PBLUP) and single-step genomic BLUP (ssGBLUP) models.

Research Note: Quantifying corticosterone in turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) feathers using ELISA. [PDF]

open access: yesPoult Sci, 2020
The measurement of corticosterone in feathers is an appealing tool for assessing glucocorticoids in wild and domestic bird species. Feather corticosterone measurements can be performed noninvasively and can provide a means for comparing glucocorticoid ...

From muscle fibres to muscle gears: how dynamic fascicle orientation and shape change impact skeletal muscle function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle architectural design strongly affects force‐generating capacity and excursion range, and its functional importance to animal and human movement is well founded. Traditionally, this ‘structure–function relation’ has been inferred from architecture measurements with muscles at rest (from anatomical dissections or medical imaging ...

Efficacy of deterrents in minimizing nontarget species consumption of bait used for attracting wild pigs (Sus scrofa)

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Evaluated repellents were effective at deterring white‐tailed deer from consuming wild pig bait piles without deterring wild pig bait consumption, although the deterrents were not effective for other nontarget wildlife. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa) are an invasive species that cause environmental and agricultural damage.
