Is Quail Hunting Self-Regulatory? Northern Bobwhite and Scaled Quail Abundance and Quail Hunting in Texas

open access: yesQuail, 2017
Wildlife managers often maintain that quail hunting is self-regulatory because they assume hunters spend fewer days hunting, and bag fewer quail per day, when hunting is "poor," while hunting more frequently, and bagging more quail per day, when hunting ...

An elastic segment of the whisker shaft enables coding of the whisking phase via whisker torsion in rats and mice

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
An elastic segment was found in the basal part of the whisker shaft in rats and mice. Application of force to the whisker bulb of isolated follicles caused bending and twisting of this segment. Active whisker movements deform this segment, causing whisker shaft deflection and selective activation of mechanoreceptors at different phases of whisking ...

Potential Effects of Global Warming on Quail Populations

open access: yesQuail, 2017
Populations of scaled quail (Callipepla squamata) and northern bobwhites (Colinus virginianus) have declined in North America coincident with global wanning. We speculate on a cause-effect relation between global wamiing and quail declines.

Patterns of interspecific variation in labial microarchitecture among anthropoid primates and the evolution of the hominin lips

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Comparative histological and semi‐automated image analysis of primate lips: Masson's trichrome‐stained sagittal sections were segmented to quantify the connective tissue, adipose, and muscular components, enabling interspecific comparisons of labial architecture.

Growth Performance, Serum Biochemical Profile, Oxidative Status, and Fertility Traits in Male Japanese Quail Fed on Ginger (Zingiber officinale, Roscoe) Essential Oil

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine International, 2018
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of ginger (Zingiber officinale, Rosc.) essential oil on growth performance, serum biochemical profile, oxidative stress, and histological structure of testes and fertility traits in Japanese quail (Coturnix ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Basic Characterization of Japanese Quail Peritoneal Macrophages Induced by Thioglycollate

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2004
This paper describes the morphology, phagocytic capacity, and response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of peritoneal macrophages (Mφ) from Japanese quail, following induction by thioglycollate.

Radial capacity and hemodynamics evaluation in vitro and implantable feasibility validation in vivo of thinner bioresorbable polymer vascular stents

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A series of in vitro experiments, numerical simulations and in vivo experiments were conducted to jointly evaluate the effects of different thicknesses of bioabsorbable polymer vascular stents on their radial capacity, hemodynamics and in vivo outcomes.
