Advancing Genetic Stock Identification of Leatherback Turtles From Foraging Grounds in the Southwest Atlantic: Insights From Nuclear DNA (nDNA) Analysis. [PDF]
Genetic Stock Identification (GSI) of 78 stranded or incidentally caught leatherbacks from feeding grounds off the coasts of Argentina and Uruguay was genotyped with 15 microsatellite markers. Assignment analysis results indicated that 92% of leatherbacks in this region originated from Ghana and Gabon, with smaller contributions from the Northwest ...

Landscape Genomics and Evolutionary History of <i>Megamelus scutellaris</i>, a Biocontrol Agent of the Invasive Water Hyacinth (<i>Pontederia crassipes</i>). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Understanding the evolutionary history of biological control agents in their native ranges is crucial for improving their selection, establishment, and performance across environmentally diverse regions. Phytophagous insects that specialize on aquatic plants offer particularly valuable models, as their evolutionary trajectories may be shaped ...

Holding a wing horizontal: Roles for muscles of the pectoral girdle other than the main two flight muscles. [PDF]
This report explores which muscles of the pectoral girdle are employed to allow birds to hold their wings horizontally with a level aerofoil surface during a glide. Abstract Whilst many birds glide briefly with wings held horizontally, some species maintain this posture for extended periods during soaring.

Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...
