Stressful Body Temperatures as a Maternal Effect on Lizard Reproduction [0.03%]
母体效应与蜥蜴繁殖之间的关联:压力体温的影响
Anthony L Gilbert,Sydney M Wayne,Mike C Norris et al.
Anthony L Gilbert et al.
AbstractUnderstanding the relationship between the environment parents experience during reproduction and the environment embryos experience in the nest is essential for determining the intergenerational responses of populations to novel en...
Island Living Indirectly Affects Hair Glucocorticoid Levels in a Small Mammal [0.03%]
海岛生活间接影响小型哺乳动物毛发皮质醇水平
Nathan D Stewart,Joshua K R Tabh,Gabriela F Mastromonaco et al.
Nathan D Stewart et al.
AbstractIsland vertebrates that are small on the mainland tend to be larger and exhibit tamer behavior than their mainland conspecifics-a combined set of characteristics known as "island syndrome." Such island-specific traits are often attr...
Evolutionary Loss of Male-Specific Coloration Is Associated with the Loss of Androgen Receptor Expression in Skin of Sceloporus Lizards [0.03%]
雄性特异性色彩的表型演化与Sceloporus蜥蜴皮肤中雄激素受体表达的丢失相关联
Christopher D Robinson,Matthew R Milnes,Ian T Clifton et al.
Christopher D Robinson et al.
AbstractHormones can induce trait development in one species yet have no effect on the same trait in a closely related species, but the mechanisms underlying these differences are unclear. Here, we compare two closely related lizard species...
Experimental Evolution of a Mammalian Holobiont? Genetic and Maternal Effects on the Cecal Microbiome in Bank Voles Selectively Bred for Herbivorous Capability [0.03%]
实验进化的哺乳动物生态圈吗?在黄鼠中选择培育出草食性的遗传和母体因素对盲肠微生物群的影响
Małgorzata M Lipowska,Edyta T Sadowska,Kevin D Kohl et al.
Małgorzata M Lipowska et al.
AbstractMammalian herbivory represents a complex adaptation requiring evolutionary changes across all levels of biological organization, from molecules to morphology to behavior. Explaining the evolution of such complex traits represents a ...
Developmental Thermal Conditioning Regulates Oxidative State and Beak Coloration in Response to Thermal Stressors in Adulthood [0.03%]
发育热条件调节氧化状态和喙颜色以响应成年期的热应激反应
Alexander J Hoffman,John W Finger Jr,Andreas N Kavazis et al.
Alexander J Hoffman et al.
AbstractAt certain intensities and durations, environmental stressors during development can result in changes in physiology that prepare organisms for future stressful conditions. Such plasticity can allow organisms to maintain good condit...
Mesocosm Studies Suggest Climate Change May Release Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) Larvae from Cold Inhibition and Enable Year-Round Development in a Desert City [0.03%]
中等宇宙研究表明气候变迁可能使按蚊(Aedes aegypti) larvae脱离寒冷抑制并能在沙漠城市全年发育成长
Trevor P Fox,Yash P Raka,Kirk Smith et al.
Trevor P Fox et al.
AbstractGlobal warming trends, human-assisted transport, and urbanization have allowed poleward expansion of many tropical vector species, but the specific mechanisms responsible for thermal mediation of range changes and ecological success...
The Influence of Environmental Conditions and Coinfection by Blood-Feeding Parasites on Red Blood Cell Physiology of an Ectothermic Host [0.03%]
环境条件和血液寄生虫共感染对变温宿主红血球生理的影响
Katherine L Slack,Jordy Groffen,William A Hopkins
Katherine L Slack
AbstractVector-borne blood parasites cause myriad sublethal effects and can even be deadly to endotherms, but far less is known about their impacts on ectothermic hosts. Moreover, the pathologies documented in endotherms are generally linke...
Relationships between Spatial Biology and Physiological Ecology in the Gopher Tortoise, Gopherus polyphemus [0.03%]
龟体空间生物学及生理生态学之间的关系研究——以鳞甲棱皮陆龟(Gopherus polyphemus)为例
William E Stiffler,Michael L Hilton,George L Heinrich et al.
William E Stiffler et al.
AbstractThe overlap between spatial and physiological ecology is generally understudied, yet both fields are fundamentally related in assessing how individuals balance limited resources. Herein, we quantified the relationships between spati...
Social Environment Alters the Duration of Rapid Yolk Deposition in Eggs of Domestic Hens [0.03%]
社会环境改变家鸡产卵中蛋黄快速沉积的持续时间
Carsen R Dean,Gabriela Siqueira Martins,Kristen J Navara
Carsen R Dean
AbstractThe social environment can drive female birds to alter their investment in reproduction in the form of greater incubation behavior, more parental care, and greater allocation of physiological mediators to yolks. However, less is kno...
Muscle-Tendon Unit Properties in Mice Bred for High Levels of Voluntary Running: Novel Physiologies, Coadaptation, Trade-Offs, and Multiple Solutions in the Evolution of Endurance Running [0.03%]
高自愿性跑步水平的小鼠的肌腱单元属性:耐力跑步进化中的新生理学,协同适应,权衡和多种解决方案
Alberto A Castro,Allyn Nguyen,Saad Ahmed et al.
Alberto A Castro et al.
AbstractMuscle-tendon unit (MTU) morphology and physiology are likely major determinants of locomotor performance and therefore Darwinian fitness. However, the relationships between underlying traits, performance, and fitness are complicate...
