Skeletal ontogeny of the caudal complex in Caspian kutum, Rutilus kutum (Kamensky, 1901) (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) during early development [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2019
Study of skeletal ontogeny during early development is crucial in a successful larviculture. In this study, ontogeny of the caudal complex skeleton in Caspian kutum, Rutilus kutum, was studied from hatching up to 50-day post hatching (dph).

Effects of Caudal Autotomy on the Locomotor Performance of Micrablepharus Atticolus (Squamata, Gymnophthalmidae)

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Caudal autotomy is a striking adaptation used by many lizard species to evade predators. Most studies to date indicate that caudal autotomy impairs lizard locomotor performance. Surprisingly, some species bearing the longest tails show negligible impacts

How Common Are Lesions on the Tails of Sauropods? Two New Pathologies in Titanosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Argentine Patagonia

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Studies of the paleopathology of the vertebrae provide an interesting, oblique approach to their paleobiology and even paleoethology. They tell us about possible ethological causes such as accidental blows with objects, social interactions within a group,

Telling tails [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
The N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor is one of three major classes of receptors for glutamate, the principle excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It plays a key role in learning and in the formation of memories by acting as a “coincidence detector” that initiates changes in synaptic strength that lead to the ...

Variable-speed tail rotors for helicopters with variable-speed main rotors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Variable tail rotor speed is investigated as a method for reducing tail rotor power, and improving helicopter performance. A helicopter model able to predict the main rotor and tail rotor powers is presented, and the flight test data of the UH-60A ...

Intermediate Tail Dependence: A Review and Some New Results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The concept of intermediate tail dependence is useful if one wants to quantify the degree of positive dependence in the tails when there is no strong evidence of presence of the usual tail dependence. We first review existing studies on intermediate tail

Live Imaging of Heart Injury in Larval Zebrafish Reveals a Multi-Stage Model of Neutrophil and Macrophage Migration

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Neutrophils and macrophages are crucial effectors and modulators of repair and regeneration following myocardial infarction, but they cannot be easily observed in vivo in mammalian models.

An investigation into the effectiveness of compressed straw blocks in reducing abnormal behaviour in growing pigs

open access: yesAnimal, 2019
The provision of manipulable material to pigs is a legal requirement to ensure their good welfare. Loose straw is edible, chewable, investigable and manipulable, and has been proven to be effective in reducing abnormal behaviour.

Phage Adsorption to Gram-Positive Bacteria

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The phage life cycle is a multi-stage process initiated by the recognition and attachment of the virus to its bacterial host. This adsorption step depends on the specific interaction between bacterial structures acting as receptors and viral proteins ...
