Biological clocks as age estimation markers in animals: a systematic review and meta‐analysis
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 1972-2011, December 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Various biological attributes associated with individual fitness in animals change predictably over the lifespan of an organism. Therefore, the study of animal ecology and the work of conservationists frequently relies upon the ability to assign animals to functionally relevant age classes to model population fitness.

Aging Cell, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023 To identify molecular clues of anti‐immunosenescence, we compare three long‐lived mammals versus the short‐lived mammal, mouse, in splenic immune cells at single‐cell resolution. We detect higher splenic B:T cell ratio and higher free iron level in mice, while higher expression levels of iron homeostasis‐related genes in long‐lived species.

Methods to study adult hippocampal neurogenesis in humans and across the phylogeny
Hippocampus, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 271-306, April 2023., 2023 Abstract The hippocampus hosts the continuous addition of new neurons throughout life—a phenomenon named adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN). Here we revisit the occurrence of AHN in more than 110 mammalian species, including humans, and discuss the further validation of these data by single‐cell RNAseq and other alternative techniques. In this regard,

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2000 The karyotypes of Phyllostomus discolor and P. hastatus from Eastern Amazonia were studied by G-, C-, G/C sequential and Ag-NOR techniques. Both species presented 2n = 32, with the autosome complement composed of 30 bi-armed in P.

Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 6, Page 2039-2056, December 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT Environmental variability poses a range of challenges to foraging animals trying to meet their energetic needs. Where food patches are unpredictable but shareable, animals can use social information to locate patches more efficiently or reliably. However, resource unpredictability can be heterogeneous and complex.

Optionality in animal communication: a novel framework for examining the evolution of arbitrariness
Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 6, Page 2057-2075, December 2022., 2022 ABSTRACT A critical feature of language is that the form of words need not bear any perceptual similarity to their function – these relationships can be ‘arbitrary’. The capacity to process these arbitrary form–function associations facilitates the enormous expressive power of language. However, the evolutionary roots of our capacity for arbitrariness,

Mutual mother‐pup acoustic identification in Asian particolored bats
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022 This is the first use of two‐choice acoustic signal playback experiments to confirm that pups can recognize their mothers by echolocation calls. The results provide behavioral evidence for bidirectional recognition of acoustic signals between mothers and infants in frequency‐modulated type bats.
