Biomic specialization and speciation rates in ruminants (Cetartiodactyla, Mammalia): a test of the resource-use hypothesis at the global scale. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The resource-use hypothesis proposed by E.S. Vrba predicts that specialist species have higher speciation and extinction rates than generalists because they are more susceptible to environmental changes and vicariance.

Single domain antibody: Development and application in biotechnology and biopharma
Immunological Reviews, Volume 328, Issue 1, Page 98-112, November 2024.Summary Heavy‐chain antibodies (HCAbs) are a unique type of antibodies devoid of light chains, and comprised of two heavy chains‐only that recognize their cognate antigen by virtue of a single variable domain also referred to as VHH, single domain antibody (sdAb), or nanobody (Nb).

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008 Background Specialised leaf-eating is almost universally regarded as the ancestral state of all ruminants, yet little evidence can be cited in support of this assumption, apart from the fact that all early ruminants had low crowned cheek teeth.

Palaeontology, Volume 67, Issue 4, July/August 2024.Abstract Mammals exhibit ecology‐related diversity in long bone morphology, revealing an ample spectrum of adaptations both within and between clades. Their occupation of unique ecological niches in postcranial morphology is thought to have occurred at different chronological phases in relation to abiotic factors such as climate and biotic interactions

Sexual maturity and shape development in cranial appendages of extant ruminants
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Morphological disparity arises through changes in the ontogeny of structures; however, a major challenge of studying the effect of development on shape is the difficulty of collecting time series of data for large numbers of taxa.

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 4, Page 1559-1593, April 2024.Abstract The complex constructions of land vertebrate skulls have inspired a number of functional analyses. In the present study, we provide a basic view on skull biomechanics and offer a framework for more general observations using advanced modeling approaches in the future.

Species Delimitation in the Genus Moschus (Ruminantia: Moschidae) and Its High-Plateau Origin.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The authenticity of controversial species is a significant challenge for systematic biologists. Moschidae is a small family of musk deer in the Artiodactyla, composing only one genus, Moschus.

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 3, Page 677-689, March 2024.Abstract The intracranial arterial vascularization of the Saimaa ringed seals (Pusa hispida saimensis; Nordquist, 1899) and Baltic ringed seals (Pusa hispida botnica; Gmelin, 1788) disclosed patterns of anatomical architecture comparable to that of other pinniped species.
