Genetic Sexing of the African Penguin, <i>Spheniscus demersus</i> Using Noninvasive Guano and Molted Feather Samples. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study developed a noninvasive method for the DNA extraction and PCR‐based genetic sexing of S. demersus using guano and molted feather samples. Two primer sets (CHD1F/R & 2550F/2718R) were used that target sex‐specific length polymorphisms in the CHD1‐Z and CHD1‐W genes on the CHD1 sex chromosomes. Using methods optimized for the extraction of DNA

Microplastics in Seabird Feces from Coastal Areas of Central Chile

Animals, 2023
Pollution from plastic waste thrown into the ocean affects all levels of the food chain. Marine species of birds are affected by plastic particles of different sizes, especially the mesoplastics (1 to 10 mm) found in their digestive tract, which mainly ...

Sound Guides Object Size Choices in African Penguins Through Pitch-Size Association. [PDF]

Ann N Y Acad Sci
African penguins use auditory pitch to guide visual size choices. When hearing high‐pitched sounds, they preferentially approach and gaze at smaller objects, and when hearing low‐pitched sounds, they preferentially approach and gaze at larger ones.

Avian Pox in Magellanic Penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2012
Avian pox is an enveloped double-stranded DNA virus that is mechanically transmitted via arthropod vectors or mucosal membrane contact with infectious particles or birds. Magellanic Penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus) from two colonies (Punta Tombo and Cabo Dos Bahías) in Argentina showed sporadic, nonepidemic signs of avian pox during five and two of ...

Four novel Picornaviruses detected in Magellanic Penguins ( Spheniscus magellanicus ) in Chile [PDF]

Virology, 2020
Abstract Members of the Picornaviridae comprise a significant burden on the poultry industry, causing diseases such as gastroenteritis and hepatitis. However, with the advent of metagenomics, a number of picornaviruses have now been revealed in apparently healthy wild birds. In this
