Urbanization and food transition in the Brazilian Amazon: From wild to domesticated meat
Abstract Urbanization is expected to influence food transitions, resulting in a shift from wild foods to more domesticated foods. Concomitantly, food insecurity and urban demand for natural resources, including wildlife, are expected to increase overall, even when the per capita consumption is expected to decrease.

Transferrin polymorphism in Amazon turtle (Podocnemis expansa) stocks [PDF]
The transferrin gene locus (Tf) was investigated in five populations of the Amazon turtle (Podocnemis expansa) sampled from five geographical areas in the Amazon region. This locus was polymorphic, showing three genotypes (Tfa Tfa, Tfa Tfb and Tfb Tfb), presumably encoded by two co-dominant alleles, Tfa and Tfb.

This study presents the first genomic identification and characterization of ZW sex chromosomes in two soft‐shelled turtle species through genome assembly and resequencing. We reveal the structural organization of ZW chromosomes, identifying both pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) and differentiated regions.
