Subtypes of Blastocystis in Tibetan Antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii).

Research in Veterinary Science
Blastocystis is a protist that is distributed in the gut tract of humans and animals. However, the reports about Blastocystis infection in Tibetan antelope are scarce. We collected 173 Tibetan antelope feces samples from Xinjiang, Qinghai and Xizang, and

Recovered Tibetan antelope at risk again

Science, 2019
Rates of environmental destruction are greater today than at any previous point in human history (1). This loss of valued species, ecosystems, and landscapes triggers strong grief respons es in people with an emotional attachment to nature (2).

Georgenia faecalis sp. nov. isolated from the faeces of Tibetan antelope

Journal of Microbiology, 2020
Two aerobic, Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, non-sporulating coccoid strains, designated ZLJ0423T and ZLJ0321, were isolated from the faeces of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii). Their optimal temperature, NaCl concentration and pH for growth were 28°C, 0.5% (w/v) NaCl and pH 7.5, respectively.

Responses of Tibetan antelope population to environment changes during the Holocene

Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology
Tibetan antelope (Chiru, Pantholops hodgsonii), an endemic species of the Tibet Plateau, inhabits the open alpine and desert steppe areas ranging 3250 to 5500 m altitude. In the past decades, the antelope population has been significantly affected by human activities, including massive illegal hunting, followed by strict protection policies and ...

Observations on the Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsoni)

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 1991
Abstract Tibetan antelope or chiru (Pantholops hodgsoni) favor flat to rolling terrain at 4000–5000 m, an elevation where vegetation is scant and patchy. The species still ranges over ∼800 000 km2 of the Tibetan Plateau, and about half of this area remains devoid of people.

Nocardioides dongkuii sp. nov. and Nocardioides lijunqiniae sp. nov., isolated from faeces of Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) and leaves of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), respectively, on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2021
In the present study, four bacterial strains, two (S-713T and 406) isolated from faecal samples of Tibetan antelopes and the other two (S-531T and 1598) from leaves of dandelion collected on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of PR China, were analysed using a ...

A new risk for the recovered Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii): Co-exposure of microplastics with organophosphates in their habitats.

Journal of Hazardous Materials
Emerging contaminants (ECs), particularly microplastics (MPs) and organophosphate esters (OPEs), poses a new potential threat to the recovered Tibetan antelope on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP).

Molecular Prevalence of Cyclospora spp. in Tibetan Antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) in China.

Foodborne pathogens and disease
Cyclospora spp. is a globally distributed foodborne intestinal parasite with potential zoonotic risk. The Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii), an iconic wildlife species in China, is classified as a national first-class protected animal.

Group size effects on foraging and vigilance in migratory Tibetan antelope

Behavioural Processes, 2007
Large group sizes have been hypothesized to decrease predation risk and increase food competition. We investigated group size effects on vigilance and foraging behaviour during the migratory period in female Tibetan antelope Pantholops hodgsoni, in the Kekexili Nature Reserve of Qinghai Province, China.
