DataSheet2_Differential Expression of Metabolism-Related Genes in Plateau Pika (Ochotona curzoniae) at Different Altitudes on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau.zip

open access: yes, 2022
According to life history theory, animals living in extreme environments have evolved specific behavioral and physiological strategies for survival. However, the genetic mechanisms underpinning these strategies are unclear.

Herbivorous mammals adjust their feeding patterns according to the abundance of available diet to adapt to the effects of grassland degradation

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
The degradation of grasslands on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau has severely impacted the region’s ecology and productivity, subsequently affecting the dietary niche of the region’s herbivores.

Effects of Qinghai-Tibetan Railway on the Genetic Differentiation of Plateau Pika (Ochotona curzoniae) Based on Cytochrome b Sequences

open access: yes, 2012
Plateau pika (Ochotonidae: Ochotona curzoniae) is widespread in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). It is endemic to QTP and restricted to high altitude area, ranging from 3,000 to 5,200 m above sea level. In this study, I examined the genetic structure of O.

Preference for ground cover when selecting burrow entrances in plateau pikas

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Burrow‐dwelling animals such as the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) often seek sturdy entrances for their burrows, which can reduce the need for frequent maintenance.

Tissue Specific Expression of Plateau Pikas (Ochotona curzoniae   ) HIF-1α mRNA Under Normal Oxygen

open access: yes, 2004
Hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1),which is a transcription factor composed of HIF-1α and arylhydocarbon nuclear receptor translocator (ARNT),plays an important role in the signal transduction of cell response to hypoxia.Plateau pikas (Ochotona ...

高原鼠兔对极端低氧环境的生理、行为和分子生物学适应研究进展

open access: yes野生动物学报, 2022
从生理学、行为学及分子生物学等方面对高原鼠兔(Ochotona curzoniae)的低氧适应机制进行阐述,发现高原鼠兔血液与血红蛋白的结合、释放氧的能力较高,这对低氧时体内氧的传递是有利的;肺小动脉壁变薄,这有利于在低氧条件下进行气体交换,使更多的氧进入肺部,同时高原鼠兔的右心室重量低于常氧环境中的大鼠。这就最大限度防止了高原鼠兔在低氧环境中出现右心室衰竭。行为学研究主要集中在其繁殖行为方面,分子生物学研究主要集中在其血管生成、能量代谢和携氧蛋白的携氧能力方面。

Opposite companion effect on flight initiation distance in sympatric species: plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) and white-rumped snowfinch (Montifringilla taczanowskii)

open access: yes, 2015
There are many factors influencing prey’s risk perception and escape decision during predator-prey encounters. The distance at which animals move away from perceived danger (often quantified as flight initiation distance [FID]) has been used by ...
