Estimating the point spread function of motion-blurred images of the Ochotona Curzoniae

2013 6th International Congress on Image and Signal Processing (CISP), 2013
Ochotona curzoniae is one of the main creature calamities in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. With the development of advanced biological recognition technologies, a new scientific method is provided for the Ochotona curzoniae's research using the automatic identification system.

Dietary niche of Ochotona curzoniae in alpine meadows based on stable isotope analysis.

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology
Understanding the dietary niche characteristics of Ochotona curzoniae across different population densities is of great significance for correctly recognizing its function and position in grasslands and scientifically evaluating their harmfulness. Using Bayesian stable isotope mass balance mixing model, we analyzed the dietary habits and ecological ...

Male reproductive success in plateau pikas (Ochotona curzoniae): A microsatellite analysis

Mammalian Biology, 2009
In many social species, competition and cooperation between group members may lead to a large variance in reproductive success among individuals, especially for adult male. From April to August 2002, we studied the adult male reproductive success of plateau pikas in Haibei Alpine Meadow Ecosystem Research Station, Chinese Academy of Science, using ...

Isolation and characterization of 13 microsatellite loci in the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae)

Conservation Genetics, 2008
High quality jumping microsatellite libraries of the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) were constructed; 231 out of the 288 clones contained microsatellite repeat motif and 120 pairs of primers were designed accordingly. Polymorphism was assessed for 48 individuals. Only 13 microsatellite loci were polymorphic with high polymorphism information content

Functional regulation of testosterone underlying state transition in seasonal spermatogenesis of Plateau Pika (Ochotona curzoniae)

Journal of Mammalogy
Seasonal reproduction is an adaptive strategy that benefits the survival and growth of offspring. However, the regulatory mechanisms affecting spermatogenesis in male seasonal breeders are not well understood.

Adlercreutzia wanghongyangiae sp. nov., and Adlercreutzia shanghongiae sp. nov., two new members of the genus Adlercreutzia isolated from plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae).

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
Four anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, non-sporulating rod-shaped bacterial strains (R7T, R21, R22 and R25T) were isolated from the intestinal contents of plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) collected from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, PR China. The

Mitochondrial genome analysis of Ochotona curzoniae and implication of cytochrome c oxidase in hypoxic adaptation

Mitochondrion, 2008
Pikas originated in Asia and are small lagomorphs native to cold climates. The plateau pika, Ochotona curzoniae is a keystone species on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and an ideal animal model for hypoxic adaptation studies. Altered mitochondrial function, especially cytochrome c oxidase activity, is an important factor in modulation of energy generation ...

Gut microbiome and antibiotic resistance genes in plateau model animal (Ochotona curzoniae) exhibit a relative stability under cold stress.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) carried by gut pathogens may pose a threat to the host and ecological environment. However, few studies focus on the effects of cold stress on intestinal bacteria and ARGs in plateau animals. Here, we used 16S rRNA gene

Life history of the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) in alpine meadows of the Tibetan Plateau

Mammalian Biology, 2013
The life history of a species is a result of natural selection and reflects how the species is adapted to its environment. Knowledge of life history is crucial for further ecological studies and conservation management. This paper presents aspects of the life history of the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae), a small mammal native to alpine meadows of ...

Modeling dispersal of the plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae) using a cellular automata model

Ecological Modelling, 2007
The plateau pika is a keystone species of the Qinghai-Xizang plateau. We ought to intensify the inspection and management about its population dynamics in order to bring it to appropriate spatio-temporal distribution, play the role of keystone species, and do not destroy the alpine grasslands.
