The genome sequence of the northern bat, Eptesicus nilssonii (Keyserling & Blasius, 1839) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2023
We present a genome assembly from an individual Eptesicus nilssonii (the northern bat; Chordata; Mammalia; Chiroptera; Vespertilionidae), derived from the placental tissue of a pregnancy that resulted a male pup.

Recent expansion and adaptive evolution of the carcinoembryonic antigen family in bats of the Yangochiroptera subgroup

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Expansions of gene families are predictive for ongoing genetic adaptation to environmental cues. We describe such an expansion of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) gene family in certain bat families.

Rickettsiae in the common pipistrelle Pipistrellus pipistrellus (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) and the bat soft tick Argas vespertilionis (Ixodida: Argasidae)

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Increasing molecular evidence supports that bats and/or their ectoparasites may harbor vector-borne bacteria, such as bartonellae and borreliae. However, the simultaneous occurrence of rickettsiae in bats and bat ticks has been poorly studied.

Myotis chiloensis(Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) [PDF]

Mammalian Species, 2015
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Myotis chiloensis (Waterhouse, 1838), the Chilean myotis, is found only in Argentina and Chile, where it is the most common bat species in the southern part of Chile. It is a small insectivorous bat and differs from other members of the genus because of its darker pelage.
