Newly evolved highly repeated DNA sequences ofTupaia glis (Tupaiidae, Scandentia)

Human Evolution, 1995
We have studied highly repeated DNA sequences ofTupaia glis (Tupaiidae, Scandentia) with restriction endonucleases and Southern blotting techniques. Five highly repeated DNA fragments have been isolated fromT. glis and hybridized with genomic DNAs (cleaved by different restriction enzymes) of several non-human primate species and one insectivore (E ...

Coccidia (Apicomplexa: Eimeriidae) in the Primates and the Scandentia

International Journal of Primatology, 1999
The coccidia (protistan phylum Apicomplexa Levine, 1970) comprise a large group of obligate intracellular parasites commonly found in all classes of vertebrate hosts and in some invertebrates. This review focuses on the largest family in this group, Eimeriidae Minchin, 1903, because its members are among the most prevalent and specious of all parasite ...

The Sublingua and Tongue of Tupaia (Scandentia, Mammalia): A Scanning Electron Microscope Study

Folia Primatologica, 1993
The surface morphology of the tongue and the sublingua in Tupαiα belαngeri was examined both under the dissection microscope and with the scanning electron microscope. Shape and structural differentiation of the sublingua and the anterior ventral part of the tongue are described.

On the Treeshrew Skull (Mammalia, Placentalia, Scandentia)

Annals of Carnegie Museum, 2011
ABSTRACT Skull anatomy other than the ear region of the pen-tailed treeshrew, Ptilocercus lowii Gray, 1848 (Ptilocercidae), is described and illustrated in detail based on 11 specimens from the Carnegie Museum of Natural History and the United States National Museum.

Checklist of scandents and pholidots (Mammalia: Scandentia and Pholidota) of South Asia

Zoos' Print Journal, 2004
Blyth (1863), Jerdon, (1874), Sterndale (1884) and Blanford (1891) include accounts on scandents and pholidots of the Indian subcontinent. Although the order Scandentia has been subjected to numerous taxonomic changes (Lyon, 1913; Ellerman & Morrison-Scott, 1951; Dene et al., 1958; Campbell, 1966, 1974; Elliot, 1971; Goodman, 1975; McKenna, 1975 ...

Molecular Cytogenetic Studies in Strepsirrhine Primates, Dermoptera and Scandentia

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2012
Since the first chromosome painting study between human and strepsirrhine primates was performed in 1996, nearly 30 species in Strepsirrhini, Dermoptera and Scandentia have been analyzed by cross-species chromosome painting. Here, the contribution of chromosome painting data to our understanding of primate genome organization, chromosome evolution and ...

Distribution of Interstitial Telomeric Sequences in Primates and the Pygmy Tree Shrew (Scandentia)

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2017
It has been hypothesized that interstitial telomeric sequences (ITSs), i.e., repeated telomeric DNA sequences found at intrachromosomal sites in many vertebrates, could be correlated to chromosomal rearrangements and plasticity. To test this hypothesis, we hybridized a telomeric PNA probe through FISH on representative species of 2 primate infraorders,

Morphogenesis of megamitochondria in the retinal cone inner segments of Tupaia belangeri (Scandentia)

Cell and Tissue Research, 1996
The morphogenesis of the megamitochondria in the retinal cones of prenatal, young postnatal and adult tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri) was studied by transmission electron microscopy and three-dimensional reconstruction techniques. The initial assembly of the supranuclear cone mitochondria and their subsequent migration towards the developing inner ...

Functional morphology of the forelimb of Tupaiids (Mammalia, Scandentia) and its phylogenetic implications

Journal of Morphology, 2002
AbstractIn this study, the forelimb of 12 species of tupaiids was analyzed functionally and compared to that of other archontan mammals. Several differences that relate to differential substrate use were found in the forelimb morphology of tupaiids. These differences included shape of the scapula, length and orientation of the coracoid process, size of

Molecular phylogeny of treeshrews (Mammalia: Scandentia) and the timescale of diversification in Southeast Asia

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2011
Resolving the phylogeny of treeshrews (Order Scandentia) has historically proven difficult, in large part because of access to specimens and samples from critical taxa. We used "antique" DNA methods with non-destructive sampling of museum specimens to complete taxon sampling for the 20 currently recognized treeshrew species and to estimate their ...
