Hypopigmentation in mantled howler monkeys Alouatta palliata (gray 1849): First documented cases of whole-body leucism in South America. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2022
Hypopigmentation in vertebrates is the result of genetic impoverishment and it is associated with isolated populations and environmental stressors. In mantled howler monkeys Alouatta palliata (Gray 1849) there are records of hypopigmentation in Mexico and Costa Rica but this is the first documented record of whole‐body leucism in South America in a ...

Chromosomal Inversion Associated With Diet Differences in Common Quails Sharing Wintering Grounds. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
A large chromosomal inversion in common quails (Coturnix coturnix) is associated with phenotypic traits. In a wintering population in southern Spain, we found all three karyotypes coexisting but showing differences in migratory behavior and diet, as exemplified by the isotopic signature.

Epidemiological observations on pastern dermatitis in young horses and evaluation of essential fatty acid spot‐on applications with or without phytosphingosine as prophylactic treatment

open access: yesVeterinary Dermatology, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 221-e62, June 2022., 2022
Background Equine pastern dermatitis (EPD) is a common multifactorial clinical syndrome in horses. Treatment can be difficult; pathogenesis and triggering factors cannot always be determined. Objectives To assess risk factors for developing EPD in a large group of horses kept under the same conditions and to analyse whether or not a spot‐on containing ...

The genomics and physiology of abiotic stressors associated with global elevational gradients in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary Phenotypic and genomic diversity in Arabidopsis thaliana may be associated with adaptation along its wide elevational range, but it is unclear whether elevational clines are consistent among different mountain ranges. We took a multi‐regional view of selection associated with elevation.
