Statistical structure of lateral connections in the primary visual cortex [PDF]
The statistical structure of the visual world offers many useful clues for understanding how biological visual systems may understand natural scenes. One particularly important early process in visual object recognition is that of grouping together edges

Beyond Geography: Climatic Gradients Shape Reeves's Muntjac Population Structure in Taiwan
North–south population split in Reeves's muntjac revealed by genome‐wide SNPs. Parallel divergence patterns across mammals in Taiwan suggest shared environmental drivers. Demographic modeling supports historical isolation and asymmetric gene flow.

Abstract While roads have well‐documented effects on wildlife movement, the impact of smaller non‐vehicle recreational trails typical of urban preserves is less thoroughly understood, particularly for small mammals. We used mark–recapture to identify movement of deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) across three broad (>2.5 m) recreational trails in small

Abstract Plant carnivory evolved through gene co‐option and whole genome duplications (WGDs) over millions of years in at least 13 independent flowering plant lineages, but its genetic mechanisms remain largely unknown. To elucidate these mechanisms in Sarraceniaceae, we sequenced and assembled the Sarracenia purpurea genome and conducted a comparative

Plasma volume, cell volume, total blood volume and F factor in the tree shrew.
In this study, the physiological values of volumes of plasma, cells, total blood and the F blood factors were identified in 24 adult tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri; 12 male and 12 female; average BW of 123.9±19.19 g).

Fungal Keratitis in Tree Shrews
A tree shrew model of fungal keratitis was established by injecting Fusarium solani into the corneal stroma, to investigate the role of miR-204-3p and KRT16 in fungal keratitis.

On the Relation Between Receptive Field Structure and Stimulus Selectivity in the Tree Shrew Primary Visual Cortex [PDF]
There are notable differences in functional properties of primary visual cortex (V1) neurons among mammalian species, particularly those concerning the occurrence of simple and complex cells and the generation of orientation selectivity. Here, we present

Mitochondrial simple sequenze repeats and 12s – rRNA gene reveal two distinct lineages of Crocidura russula (Mammalia, Sorcidae) [PDF]
A short segment (135 bp) of the control region and a partial sequence (394 bp) of the 12S-rRNA gene in the mitochondrial DNA of Crocidura russula were analyzed in order to test a previous hypothesis regarding the presence of a gene flow disruption in

Contextualising primate origins - an ecomorphological framework [PDF]
Ecomorphology - the characterisation of the adaptive relationship between an organism's morphology and its ecological role - has long been central to theories of the origin and early evolution of the primate order.

Body mass, Thermogenesis and energy metabolism in Tupaia belangeri during cold acclimation [PDF]
In order to study the relationship between energy strategies and environmental temperature, basal metabolic rate (BMR), nonshivering thermogenesis (NST), the total protein contents, mitochondrial protein contents, state and state respiratory ability ...
