Radiation of tribosphenic mammals during the early Late Cretaceous (Turonian) of North America
(2017-12)
Tribosphenic mammals from the medial Cretaceous (encompassing the Cenomanian to the Campanian (~98–80 Ma)) are rare elements of the fauna, typically recovered via bulk sampling and underwater screen washing. Southern Utah ...
Molecular basis of ecdysteroid mediated limb regeneration in the fiddler crab, Uca pugilator
(2014-05)
Regeneration is a biological phenomenon that provides an organism the ability to recapitulate part of embryonic development as an adult. The capacity to regenerate is not limited to any particular group of animals; however, ...
Status and ecology of Sotalia fluviatilis in the Cayos Miskito Reserve, Nicaragua.
(1999)
In March through May of 1996--98 we conducted research in the Cayos Miskito Reserve, Nicaragua to assess the status, ecology and distribution of Sotalia fluviatilis, a dolphin known from southern Brazil to Honduras. Surveys ...
An analysis of the activation of the adipogenic differentiation pathway in the bone marrow stroma by members of the nuclear hormone receptor family.
(1997)
The bone marrow stroma is composed of a diverse array of cell types that have unique functions. Of the different types, the adipocyte is the most abundant. It is not clear what purpose adipocytes serve in the bone marrow. ...
Estimating bird/bat fatality rates and using stable-hydrogen isotopes to assess hoary bat migratory patterns associated with a wind-energy facility in western Oklahoma
(2013)
Offsetting a portion of the energy deficit of the United States with emission-free, renewable energy is driving a rapid increase in the number of wind-power installations across the country. Although wind energy has ...
Synaptic depression and its relation to behavioral habituation within anterior piriform cortex.
(2004)
The onset, time course, and extent of LOT synaptic depression during both in vitro electrical and in vivo odorant stimulation methods were similar. Similar to the odor specificity of cortical odor adaptation in vivo, there ...
Genotype x environment interactions in Drosophila melanogaster /
(1983)
Chapter II. Conditional Polygenic Effects in the Sternopleural Bristle System of Drosophila Melanogaster. II. Polygene Mapping. The intrachromosomal architecture of third chromosomes isolated from lines of Drosophila ...
Conservation of Neotropical Parrots: Population Responses to Forest Cover Change and Trade Pressure and a Tool to Predict Sensitivity to Deforestation
(2022-05-13)
The avian order Psittaciformes (parrots) is one the most at-risk group of birds in the world because of the combination of deforestation and overexploitation for wildlife trade. Studies to better understand and quantify ...
Aversive learning effect on odor coding in rat's piriform cortex
(2011)
Olfaction, a sense for detecting and discriminating chemical molecules in the environment, is critical for animal survival, reproduction and other adaptive behaviors. The olfactory system is organized in three major stations ...
INSIGHTS FROM LAMPREY INTO DEVELOPMENT AND EVOLUTION OF GLIA AND CRANIAL SENSORY GANGLIA
(2018-05-11)
During evolution, animal nervous systems have become increasingly complex. This complexity is based on the cumulative diversity of neural cells and the emergence of new nervous system structures. Among animals, vertebrates ...
