Seasonal Variations in the Foraging Strategies of Plateau Pikas (Ochotona curzoniae) [PDF]

Animals
This study investigates the foraging habits and dietary niche characteristics of plateau pikas (Ochotona curzoniae) by analyzing differences between the cold and warm seasons using stable isotope analysis of carbon and nitrogen in liver, muscle, and fur organs. The results indicated that in the cold season, the plant species incorporated into different

Microhabitat use by plateau pikas: living on the edge [PDF]

Journal of Mammalogy, 2019
AbstractMammals rely on habitat resources for survival and reproduction. We studied microhabitats used by plateau pikas (Ochotona curzoniae) of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Microhabitat features used by pikas include sedge meadows that provide forage, burrows that provide safety from predators and cover for nests, degraded open-dirt patches, and edges ...

Agromyces badenianii sp. nov., isolated from plateau pika (Ochotona curzoniae)

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2020
Two aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, catalase-positive, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterial strains, designated MF30-AT and MF845, were isolated from the intestinal contents of plateau pika collected from the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. Optimal growth of these two strains was observed under aerobic conditions at pH 7.0 and 28 °C. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of
