To examine phylogenetic relationships within the Asian lineage of voles (Microtus) belonging to subgenus Alexandromys, mitochondrial cytochrome b gene (cytb) was sequenced for its representatives, and results were compared with cytogenetic, morphological, paleontological data. In all trees inferred from maximum likelihood, parsimony, Bayesian analyses, clade is subdivided into highly supported Alexandromys s.s. moderately Pallasiinus lineages. Four subclades are recovered Alexandromys: (1)...
In addition to encoding referential information and about the sender's motivation, mammalian alarm calls may encode other attributes of sender, providing potential for recognition among kin, mates, neighbors. Here, we examined 96 speckled ground squirrels (Spermophilus suslicus), 100 yellow fulvus) 85 yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris) determine whether their differed between species in ability caller's sex, age, identity. Alarm were elicited by approaching individually identified...
Zoo and wildlife management faces a problem with bird sexing, as many taxa have indiscernible gender differences in size coloration. Problematic groups are geese, cranes, rails, raptors, owls, parrots, doves, auks, shearwaters some passerines. Commonly accepted invasive sexing techniques based on genetics, laparoscopy, morphometric cloacal inspection, all needed capturing handling. Capturing subsequent manipulations may be inapplicable for free-ranging birds, whereas distant voice-based is...
In most species, acoustical cues are crucial for mother-offspring recognition. Studies of a few species ungulates showed that potential individual recognition may differ between nasal and oral contact calls. Vocalizations 28 hinds 31 calves farmed Iberian red deer (Cervus elaphus hispanicus) were examined with discriminant function analyses (DFA) to determine whether acoustic structure their calls encodes information about the caller's identity. Contact elicited by brief separation...
Apart from the alerting function of alarm calls, selection may favor cues that help individuals to distinguish between reliable and unreliable callers. However, this mechanism for selective response real false alarms act only if individual characteristics call are stable at least some time. Here we test implicit assumption caller's reliability hypothesis, studying individuality calls in a colony free-living, individually marked speckled ground squirrels (Spermophilus suslicus). We recorded...
Although individuality in alarm calls has been reported for many ground-dwelling sciurids, the degree to which vocal identity encoded is stable with time studied only a single sciurid species. Thus, no comparable data are available. We examined retention of keys individual after hibernation natural colony yellow ground squirrels (Spermophilus fulvus), long-lived, obligate-hibernating rodents that maintain social groups years. recorded 2 subsequent years, separated by hibernation, from 22...
ABSTRACT In most mammals, adults produce relatively low frequency vocalizations compared to those of juveniles. This rule is not maintained however at least in four species ground squirrels, whose juveniles call the adult's fundamental frequency. These findings have been obtained with separate sets and no data available concerning ontogeny linked these differences. Here we analyze acoustic structure alarm calls same Yellow Spermophilus fulvus Speckled S. suslicus squirrel individuals,...
Nsp1 of SARS-CoV-2 regulates the translation host and viral mRNAs in cells. inhibits initiation by occluding entry channel 40S ribosome subunit. The structural study Nsp1-ribosomal complexes reported post-termination 80S complex containing Nsp1, eRF1 ABCE1. Considering presence ribosomal complex, we hypothesized that may be involved termination. Using a cell-free system reconstituted vitro system, show stimulates peptide release formation termination complexes. Detailed analysis activity...
ABSTRACT Here we present an acoustic approach for reliable sexing in four whistling duck species from the genus Dendrocygna and compare it with molecular cloacal inspection techniques. In examined species, White-faced Whistling Duck D. viduata, Fulvous bicolor, Cuban arborea Red-billed autumnalis, sexes are indistinguishable by appearance. However all show strong sexual differences structure of their species-specific loud whistles. For 59 birds, acoustic-based showed 100% accordance to DNA...
Distribution area and taxonomic borders within the species complex Spermophilus erythrogenys sensu lato remain questionable. Early evidence suggests that red-cheeked ground squirrels of Southeast Kazakhstan are remarkably different in terms acoustic structure their alarm calls from Kurgan region Russia. In this study, we analyzed differences call mitochondrial DNA (complete control region, 1005-1006 bp complete cytochrome b gene, 1140 bp) 3 populations (Tara, Altyn-Emel Balkhash), all...
The Midday jird Meriones meridianussensu lato is a widely distributed and highly variable species complex, whose taxonomy still controversial despite several genetic morphological studies. Dzungaria crucial region for understanding the phylogeny phylogeography of this complex. In work, variation M. meridianus in adjacent areas was studied based on mitochondrial (Cytb) nuclear (BRCA1 IRBP) genes. To compare differentiation among lineages, craniological genotyped specimens examined. Moreover,...
Phylogeny of birch mice is estimated using sequences ten nuclear genes and one mitochondrial gene. Based on the results tree reconstructions molecular dating, five major lineages are recognized: “tianschanica,” “concolor,” “caudata,” “betulina,” “caucasica.” It established that three latter constitute a clade long-tailed mouse Sicista caudata sister group “caucasica” lineage. The “tianschanica” lineage placed as branch to all other species, however, with insufficient support. cytochrome b...
Overcoming drug resistance of cancer cells is the major challenge in molecular oncology. Here, we demonstrate that long non-coding RNA LINC00973 up-regulated normal and different origins upon treatment with chemotherapeutics. Bioinformatics analysis shows this a consequence DNA damage response pathway activation or mitotic arrest. Knockdown LINC0973 decreases p21 levels, activates cellular proliferation cells, suppresses apoptosis drug-treated cells. We have found strongly increases protein...
Abstract In female terrestrial mammals, vocal aging has only been studied in humans and pandas. cervids displaying convergent sex dimorphism of apparatus with humans, is investigated males. This cross-sectional study examined acoustic variables nasal (closed-mouth) oral (open-mouth) contact calls 32 farmed Iberian red deer hinds ( Cervus elaphus hispanicus ) aged 4-18 years their relationships caller´s age, weight, social discomfort score (bites other on hind pelt) body condition (fat...
The Tianshan birch mouse Sicista tianschanica is an endemic of the Central Asian mountains and has previously been shown to include several karyomorphs (“Terskey”, “Talgar”, “Dzungar”); however, taxonomic status these forms remained uncertain. We examined genetic variation in S. based on historical DNA samples from museum collections, including type series. Mitochondrial nuclear data indicated that species complex includes two major clades: Northern (N) Southern (S) ( cytb distance 13%). N...
