Genotyping of Capreolus pygargus fossil DNA from Denisova cave reveals phylogenetic relationships between ancient and modern populations. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The extant roe deer (Capreolus Gray, 1821) includes two species: the European roe deer (C. capreolus) and the Siberian roe deer (C. pygargus) that are distinguished by morphological and karyotypical differences. The Siberian roe deer occupies

Morphological abnormalities in the testes and epididymides of roe deer that affect spermatogenesis [PDF]
In the wild fauna of the Amur region there has been a decrease in the population of Siberian roe deer in recent years. Abnormalities associated with loss of reproductive quality affect the number of animals.

Transcription of a protein-coding gene on B chromosomes of the Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus). [PDF]
Most eukaryotic species represent stable karyotypes with a particular diploid number. B chromosomes are additional to standard karyotypes and may vary in size, number and morphology even between cells of the same individual. For many years it was generally believed that B chromosomes found in some plant, animal and fungi species lacked active genes ...

Large herbivores are particularly susceptible to changes in quantity and quality of forage resources, in turn constraining populations of large and threatened carnivores. Key prey species for Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) and leopards (P.

Abstract The Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus) is distributed throughout the continental Asia. Nowadays in eastern Europe there have been detected individuals of C. capreolus with mtDNA of C. pygargus but the origin of this introgression is not clear as there have been not many data available concerning the phylogenetic pattern of the ...

Living on the edge : Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) density in the margins of Its geographical range [PDF]
Over the last decades roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) populations have increased in number and distribution throughout Europe. Such increases have profound impacts on ecosystems, both positive and negative.

Pan‐European phylogeography of the European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus)
To provide the most comprehensive picture of species phylogeny and phylogeography of European roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), we analyzed mtDNA control region (610 bp) of 1469 samples of roe deer from Central and Eastern Europe and included into the ...

Habitat Selection and Risk of Predation: Re-colonization by Lynx had Limited Impact on Habitat Selection by Roe Deer [PDF]
Risk of predation is an evolutionary force that affects behaviors of virtually all animals. In this study, we examined how habitat selection by roe deer was affected by risk of predation by Eurasian lynx - the main predator of roe deer in Scandinavia ...

Ungulates’ Behavioral Responses to Humans as an Apex Predator in a Hunting-Prohibited Area of China
Large mammals can perceive humans as predators and therefore adjust their behavior to achieve coexistence with humans. However, lack of research at sites with low hunting intensity limits our understanding of how behavioral responses of animals adapt to ...

The seasonal migrations of a Siberian Roe deer population
The results of long-term studies on the ecology of a migratory population of Siberian roe deer (Capreolus pygargus Pall.) inhabiting the Amur Region are presented. In September, at the first frosts and 1 to 1.5 months before permanent snow cover forms, most individuals migrate 100-200 km from their summer territories to winter quarters.
