Proteomic Sex Estimation From Embedded Tooth Enamel

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Teeth hold insights into childhood diet, health and demography—including chromosomal sex. Proteomic analysis can detect peptide biomarkers from amelogenin genes encoded on X and Y chromosomes, allowing sex estimation. Embedding resins, necessary for thin sectioning teeth, can damage analytical systems, preventing proteomic analysis. We present

Is Gillnet Prey Subsidizing Ontogenetic Diet Shifts and Early Weaning in Common Coastal Bottlenose Dolphins From the Southwestern Gulf of Mexico?

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artisanal gillnet fisheries can concentrate prey and provide incidental food subsidies to marine predators, but their effects on early‐life foraging behavior and demography remain poorly resolved. The Alvarado bottlenose dolphin population that lives off the coast of Veracruz, Mexico, is well known for having chronic, frequent, and recurring ...

Continuing Osteological Research with Fairmont State University’s Human Skeletal Collection

Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science
Human skeletal remains have been used at some point by most institutions involved in natural science education, though many real remains are slowly being replaced in classroom use by plastic models. Unfortunately, most antique teaching skeletons still in collections today were obtained during an ethically gray era, resulting in a lack of documentation ...

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

A deeper look into the diversity of suckermouth catfishes (Mochockidae: Chiloglanis Peters 1868) of southern Africa, with the description of four new species

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Suckermouth catfishes of the genus Chiloglanis Peters 1868 are small and predominantly rheophilic fishes endemic to Africa. This genus is quite diverse, with over 70 species distributed across most river systems on the continent, except for the Cape Fold ecoregion and most of northern Africa.
