Evaluating Bayesian stable isotope mixing models of wild animal diet and the effects of trophic discrimination factors and informative priors

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 139-149, January 2020., 2020
Abstract Ecologists quantify animal diets using direct and indirect methods, including analysis of faeces, pellets, prey items and gut contents. For stable isotope analyses of diet, Bayesian stable isotope mixing models (BSIMMs) are increasingly used to infer the relative importance of food sources to consumers.

Historical Review and Notes on Small Mammals (Mammalia: Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha, Rodentia) in Korea

Animal Systematics, Evolution and Diversity, 2014
A taxonomic study of small mammals (Erinaceomorpha, Soricomorpha and Rodentia) was conducted in order to find out the scientific names which have been used in Korea. The synonymy of each species and taxonomical research was reviewed and confirmed in this

Divergent lineage of a novel hantavirus in the banana pipistrelle (Neoromicia nanus) in Côte d'Ivoire

Virology Journal, 2012
Recently identified hantaviruses harbored by shrews and moles (order Soricomorpha) suggest that other mammals having shared ancestry may serve as reservoirs. To investigate this possibility, archival tissues from 213 insectivorous bats (order Chiroptera)

Recent evolutions of natural foci of leptospirosis and small mammal communities (rodentia, insectivora) in the Republic of Moldova

One Health & Risk Management, 2021
Introduction. Leptospirosis is a zoonosis caused by microorganisms of the genus Leptospira with a global spread. The main reservoir of leptospires are the small mammals, which survive after infection, spreading the causative agent in the environment with
