Historical Demography and Species Distribution Models Shed Light on Speciation in Primates of Northeast India. [PDF]
Ecol EvolNortheast India's diverse geography has created numerous niches, promoting species evolution, with past climate change playing a significant role in primate speciation. Using climate modeling and genomic data, we studied the demographic history of nine primate species, revealing that climate fluctuations during the Pliocene and Pleistocene influenced ...

A localized PCR inhibitor in a porcelain crab suggests a protective role. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 A number of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) inhibitors have been identified from biological and environmental samples. By and large, such substances are treated as random nuisances and contaminants with alternate functions; their inhibitory effects on DNA replication being a coincidental property of their molecular structure.

Construction and characterization of EST libraries from the porcelain crab, Petrolisthes cinctipes [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2006 The thermal phenotype of an organism (heat and cold tolerance, thermal range, and thermal plasticity) is an essential feature of how the organism performs across thermal environments and in response to thermal stress. Porcelain crabs are of interest in addressing questions of thermal phenotype because of their high species diversity and the large ...

Hair-trigger autotomy in porcelain crabs is a highly effective escape strategy [PDF]
Behavioral Ecology, 2002 The benefits of autotomy, the voluntary shedding of limbs, have been adequately demonstrated in vertebrates but are poorly studied in invertebrates. We provide strong experimental evidence for an antipredatory benefit to autotomy in two porcelain crabs (Petrolisthes cinctipes and P. manimaculis).

Behavioural and respiratory response of the shallow-water hermit crab Pagurus cuanensis to hydrostatic pressure and temperature [PDF]
, 2010 The evolutionary history of the Anomura has long been controversially discussed. One aspect that has received little attention is the dissimilarity in physiological tolerances of the related families Paguridae and Lithodidae to environmental conditions ...
