Forage Species and Nutrition Among Reintroduced Banteng (<i>Bos javanicus</i> d'Alton, 1823) in Salakphra Wildlife Sanctuary and Khao Kiew-Khao Chompoo Wildlife Sanctuary, Thailand. [PDF]
Dietary management is an important factor affecting the health and survival of critically endangered wildlife. The natural habitat showed a significant seasonal difference which was also higher than in introduced habitat. Reintroduced banteng exhibit dietary flexibility and adaptability to different natural habitats.

Comparative genetic analysis of the 45S rDNA intergenic spacers from three Saccharum species. [PDF]
The 45S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) units are separated by an intergenic spacer (IGS) containing the signals for transcription and processing of rRNAs. For the first time, we sequenced and analyzed the entire IGS region from three original species within the ...
