A homotetrameric hemoglobin expressed in alveolar epithelial cells increases blood oxygenation in high-altitude plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae)

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
Summary: The plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) is native to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In this study, the gene that encodes a heme-binding protein in the pulmonary surfactant (PS) of the pika is identified. The protein is a homotetrameric hemoglobin (δ4)

Integrating Niche Dimensions to Advance the Ecological Study of the Americas' Smallest Cat: The Guigna in Argentine Patagonia

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We present our findings from the first multi‐annual survey of guigna in Argentine Patagonia. We found that habitat use for guignas was negatively affected by the presence of co‐predators and open vegetation; conversely, it was positively affected by the occurrence of thick forests and the presence of potential prey.

A Comparison of the Gut Microbiome of Two Sympatric Macropods Along an Urbanisation Gradient in Tasmania

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Our study is the first to explore how macropod gut flora vary across levels of urbanisation, exploring the faecal microbiomes of the red‐bellied pademelon (Thylogale billardierii) and the red‐necked wallaby (Notamacropus rufogriseus rufogriseus). There is some evidence of urbanisation's impacts on the macropod microbiome, although there appear to be ...
