Whole Genome Analysis of the Red-Crowned Crane Provides Insight into Avian Longevity. [PDF]
Mol Cells, 2020 The red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis) is an endangered, large-bodied crane native to East Asia. It is a traditional symbol of longevity and its long lifespan has been confirmed both in captivity and in the wild. Lifespan in birds is known to be positively correlated with body size and negatively correlated with metabolic rate, though the genetic ...

Red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis) prefers postharvest reed beds during winter period in Yancheng National Nature Reserve [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Reed beds represent an important habitat for the survival of birds by providing favorable foraging and reproduction conditions. Reed management, as a traditional agricultural activity, primarily includes water level control and vegetation removal by ...

Vertebral formula in red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis) and hooded crane (Grus monacha). [PDF]
J Vet Med Sci, 2014 Red-crowned cranes (Grus japonensis) are distributed separately in the east Eurasian Continent (continental population) and in Hokkaido, Japan (island population). The island population is sedentary in eastern Hokkaido and has increased from a very small number of cranes to over 1,300, thus giving rise to the problem of poor genetic diversity.

Possible Shifts in the Genetic Diversity of Red-crowned Cranes (Grus japonensis) in Hokkaido, Japan: Indications of Continental Gene Flow [PDF]
AnimalsRed-crowned cranes (Grus japonensis) consist of two distinct groups: the continental population and the island population. The island population, localized in Hokkaido, Japan, exhibits very low genetic diversity due to its rapid recovery from the brink ...

Effects of captivity and artificial breeding on microbiota in feces of the red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis). [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2016 AbstractReintroduction of the threatened red-crowned crane has been unsuccessful. Although gut microbiota correlates with host health, there is little information on gut microbiota of cranes under different conservation strategies. The study examined effects of captivity, artificial breeding and life stage on gut microbiota of red-crown cranes. The gut
