A pilot study on isolation of microsatellite DNA in the Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaeorientalis)

open access: yes, 2008
To the aim of developing specific microsatellite markers for the endangered Yangtze finless porpoise Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaeorientalis 72 microsatellite DNA sequences were isolated using an improved FIASCO (Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences ...

Herpes-like Virus Infection in Yangtze Finless Porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides): Pathology, Ultrastructure and Molecular Analysis

open access: yes, 2012
A moribund juvenile Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides) with skin lesions and ulceration was found in Dongting Lake, China. Pathologic examination, electron microscopy, and polymerase chain reaction of liver tissue revealed widely ...

Mitigating the effect of shipping on freshwater megafauna: the case study of the Yangtze finless porpoise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Shipping has increasingly become a major threat to cetaceans due to its direct effect (e.g. ship strikes) and indirect effects (e.g. noise and habitat displacement).

Yangtze Finless Porpoise Optimization Algorithm

open access: yes
To address the problems of existing swarm intelligence optimization algorithms, such as limited search information structure, reliance on mean statistics for group collaboration, and susceptibility to premature convergence, this paper proposes a novel swarm intelligence optimization method—the Yangtze Finless Porpoise Optimization Algorithm.

The population of finless porpoise in the middle and lower reaches of Yangtze River

open access: yes, 1993
Based upon the data of ecological surveys of finless porpoise, Neophocaena phocaenoides, in the middle and lower reaches of the yangtze River and specimens collected in recent years, the current state of the porpoise was analysed and evaluated.

Vocalization Pattern and Echolocation Signal Characteristics of Yangtze Finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis) in Captivity

open access: yesFishes
The Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena asiaeorientalis asiaeorientalis, YFP) possesses the ability to detect distance through echolocation signals, and its sonar signal signature is adjusted to detect different targets.

Characterization of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha gene in the sperm whale, beluga whale, and Yangtze finless porpoise

open access: yes, 2015
Cetaceans have evolved many behavioral and biological adaptations to allow them to survive in aquatic environments. Because of diving and breath-holding behaviors, cetaceans experience wide fluctuations in oxygen tension.

Origin of the double- and multi-pulse structure of echolocation signals in Yangtze finless porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaeorientialis)

open access: yes, 2005
The signals of dolphins and porpoises often exhibit a multi-pulse structure. Here, echolocation signal recordings were made from four geometrically distinct positions of seven Yangtze finless porpoises temporarily housed in a relatively small, enclosed ...

Investigating the impact of two submerged sills on the physical habitat of Yangtze finless porpoise in Hechangzhou reach, China

open access: yes, 2020
As Chinese economy booms during recent decades, river management attains more investment, and is required to develop more rapidly for flood defense as well as facilitating navigation, which brings a lot of changes and threat to most of aquatics ...
