open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2012
BACKGROUND Surgical ovarian wedge resection was the first established treatment for women with anovulatory polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) but was largely abandoned both due to the risk of postsurgical adhesions and the introduction of medical ovulation

Bimodal nesting season in Karoo dwarf tortoises (Chersobius boulengeri)

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Tortoises in arid, unpredictable regions may use a bet‐hedging strategy of regularly laying small clutches regardless of actual environmental conditions, so that some hatchlings will emerge when conditions are favourable. Karoo dwarf tortoises (Chersobius boulengeri) are endangered in their arid, unpredictable range in South Africa, yet studies of ...

Evidence for a postreproductive phase in female false killer whales Pseudorca crassidens [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
A substantial period of life after reproduction ends, known as postreproductive lifespan (PRLS), is at odds with classical life history theory. Prolonged PRLS has been confirmed in only two non-human mammals, both odontocete cetaceans. We investigate the evidence for PRLS in a third species, the false killer whale, Pseudorca crassidens, using a ...

Sex ratio and spatial distribution of Cycas panzhihuaensis in Sichuan Panzhihua cycad National Nature Reserve

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
The sex ratio of the endemic gymnosperm Cycas panzhihuaensis is determined by the potential sex‐determining gene MADS‐Y. The study examined the sex dimorphism and spatial distribution of male and female individuals. The genotypic sex ratio of the C. panzhihuaensis population is balanced. Additionally, there is a significant clustering effect in spatial
