The morphology of the oval window in Paranthropus robustus compared to humans and other modern primates

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The oval window (OW) is an opening connecting the inner and middle ear. Its area has been shown to consistently scale with body mass (BM) in primates, and has been used alongside semi‐circular canal (SCC) size to differentiate Homo sapiens and fossil hominins, including Paranthropus robustus.

“Visiting scientist effect”? Exploring the impact of time‐lags in the digitization of 2D landmark data

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Measurement error (ME) in geometric morphometrics has been the subject of countless articles, but none specific to the effect of time lags on landmark digitization error. Yet, especially for visiting scientists working on museum collections, it is not uncommon to collect data in multiple rounds, with interruptions of weeks or years. To explore

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Solid‐state fermentation pro‐enzymes supplementation benefits growth performance, health, and intestinal microbiota of broiler chickens fed wheat‐based diet

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Wheat as a kind of diet material can be used for broiler production. However, due to non‐starch polysaccharides (NSP) in wheat, wheat may lead to lower growth performance and worth health. This experiment used solid‐state fermentation pro‐enzymes (SFP enzymes) to reverse the negative effect of wheat.

Viral metagenomic analysis reveals potential biological hazards in non‐human primates in a zoo

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
The investigation identifies the presence of Encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), Baboon endogenous virus (BAV), Human endogenous retrovirus (HERV), and Baboon endogenous virus (BaEV) in non‐human primates (NHPs) at the Zoo, indicating potential zoonotic threats.
