Symmetry-Breaking Stabilities in Carapace Curvature on Testudo (Reptilia, Testudinidae)
Animals, 2022 The aim of this research was to contribute to the study of the doming geometry of Testudo carapace as an unstable point of equilibrium when animals are overturned.

Acta Herpetologica, 2007 Sexes in Chelonia display marked differences. Sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is important in evolutionary biology. Different sexual strategies result in species specific selection. Biometric variation in male and female tortoises of two species is studied.

Evaluation of gv26 electrical acupuncture stimulation on anesthetic recovery time of spur-thighed tortoise (testudo graeca) [PDF]
Kafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2023 Recovery time from anesthesia can be extended in reptiles, consequently patients undergoing general anesthesia, require prolonged monitoring period which increases the probability of postoperative complications.

Basic and Applied Herpetology, 2022 Due to phenotypic plasticity and sex-biased selective pressures, intraspecific variation in tortoise morphology is usually assessed by studying sexual dimorphism. However, inferences may differ based on the choice of shell size measurements for analyses.

Amphibia-Reptilia, 2023 A previous study on the feeding habits of Moorish tortoises in west-central Morocco suggests that these animals are selective herbivores, but the nutritional consequences have not been examined.
