Stages and duration of the seminiferous epithelium cycle in the bat Sturnira lilium

Journal of Anatomy, 2013
AbstractKnowledge of the stages that compose the seminiferous epithelium cycle (SEC) and determination of the duration of spermatogenic processes are fundamental for the accurate quantification of the dynamics of spermatogenesis. The aim of this study was to characterize the stages that compose the SEC of the bat Sturnira lilium, including evaluation ...

Coronavirus Detection in Bats Captured on the Deforestation Arc of Mato Grosso, Brazil

Zoonoses and Public Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronaviruses (CoV) are RNA viruses associated with enteric and respiratory diseases and known for their emergence potential in humans and other mammals. CoVs originate from zoonotic transmission, in which bats are natural reservoirs. Previous studies suggest that CoV diversity is positively correlated with bat diversity, whereas anthropogenic

Scientific statement on the coverage of bats by the current pesticide risk assessment for birds and mammals

EFSA Journal, Volume 17, Issue 7, July 2019., 2019
Abstract Bats are an important group of mammals, frequently foraging in farmland and potentially exposed to pesticides. This statement considers whether the current risk assessment performed for birds and ground dwelling mammals exposed to pesticides is also protective of bats. Three main issues were addressed. Firstly, whether bats are toxicologically
