(2005) and Liu (1999) documented that the two species never coexist on a hill in overlapped regions due to strong competition, an intriguing phenomenon was observed that the two species were mixed together based on recent years' field observation in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (Ma et al. 2013; ...
could potentially be transmitted between housed animals, wild fauna, and humans. Regular analyses of the animals and implementation and follow-up of health programs would minimise transmission risks between housed animals, wild fauna, and humans.Abstract We have conducted a 10-year-long coprological...
We initiated a playback experiment within 2 min at a site after we heard the bubbling call of a female cuckoo ≤ 50 m away. We set up a loudspeaker (model: JBL Xtreme 40 W; volume was ca. 90 dB at 1 m distance measured by Voltcraft SL-100 sound meter by Conrad GmbH, Kalchreu...
longitudinal fashion, using flow cytometry-based assessment of the leukemic clone. As shown in Fig.2b–f, we observed occasional Richter syndrome in TC and TCP mice, but not in TCA mice. Richter transformation was characterized in these animals by the occurrence of large blastoid cells in the ...
The results suggest that in the wild, these species benefit from increased perceived safety in larger groups, regardless of the species making up that group. No effect was noted in the zoo because of a reduced need for animals to show heightened vigilance to the...

The estimate given by the within-sire regression method was generally the least accurate, its standard error being up to twice that of the overall genetic trend (sire + dam). With the same number of tested animals, esti- mation of genetic trend through the planned use of reference sires or...
Finally, some phototrophic species are actually mixed trophic and alternatively behave as consumers [71]. Further research is needed to more comprehensively categorize and understand the relationships between protists in different functional groups. 5. Conclusions In this study, we compared protist ...
The Mankyung River estuary is located on the central portion of the west coast of Korea (Figure1). The estuary is shallow and wellmixed, with semidiurnal tides that occur over a range of about 6 m. Annual rainfall in the area isca.1,371 mm, mainly occurring during the summer rainy seas...
No hybrid individuals were detected in the sampled animals within the multispecies enclosure in Bandia Reserve, Senegal. The parameters of genetic polymorphism indicated much lower genetic diversity in Western Derby elands compared to Cape elands. On the other hand, the coefficient of inbreeding was...
