Interspecies nuclear transfer of Tibetan antelope using caprine oocyte as recipient

Molecular Reproduction and Development, 2006
AbstractInterspecies nuclear transfer is an invalulable tool for studying nucleus–cytoplasm interactions; and at the same time, it provides a possible alternative to clone endangered animals whose oocytes are difficult to obtain. In the present study, we investigated the possibility of cloning Tibetan antelope embryos using abattoir‐derived caprine ...

Evolutionary Analysis of Hypoderma Pantholopsum in Tibetan Antelopes on the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

Acta Parasitologica
Hypoderma pantholopsum is a parasite that parasitizes Tibetan antelopes (Pantholops hodgsonii). This study aims was to reveal the genetic diversity within H. pantholopsum and contribute to the protection of Tibetan antelope.H. pantholopsum was subjected to mitochondrial genome sequencing, annotation, and phylogenetic analysis. PhyloSuite and BEAST were

[Comparisons of endocrine hormones levels between Tibetan antelope and Tibetan sheep].

Sheng li xue bao : [Acta physiologica Sinica], 2013
The Tibetan antelope, a prototype mammal, has developed a unique adaptation to extreme high altitude-associated hypoxia. To investigate the role of the endocrine system in adaptation to high altitude in the Tibetan antelope, comparisons of endocrine hormones levels between Tibetan antelope (n = 9) and Tibetan sheep (n = 10) were performed.

Measures to Protect the Tibetan Antelope Under the CITES Framework

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007
The unique and beautiful Tibetan antelope, or chiru, is in imminent danger of extinction from illegal hunting. At current rates of hunting, the species may be extinct in the wild within two years. The chiru is hunted for its underfur, which is used to make a very fine wool called "shahtoosh." The problem is international: Chiru are hunted in China and ...

Spatial ecology and distribution of the Tibetan antelope and other sympatric ungulates in a cold Himalayan desert

Mammalia (Paris)
The Tibetan antelope chiru (Pantholops hodgsonii), a highly specialized ungulate endemic to the Tibetan Plateau, exhibits a unique seasonal migration of a male-dominated population to the cold, arid Changchenmo Valley in eastern Ladakh, India, raising ...

The roles of calving migration and climate change in the formation of the weak genetic structure in the Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii).

Integrative Zoology, 2019
Geographical barriers and distance can reduce gene exchange among animals, resulting in genetic divergence of geographically isolated populations. The Tibetan antelope (Pantholops hodgsonii) has a geographical range of approximately 1600 km across the ...

Tibetan Antelope and Shahtoosh Shawl: A Brief History

2018
Shahtoosh shawl production in Kashmir has a long history. Various historical, political and social factors have influenced the present state of the shawl industry, now on the verge of decline due to the international ban on shahtoosh. While scientific knowledge traces the source of shahtoosh as the Tibetan antelope, the skilled craftspeople in Kashmir ...
