Sea turtles represent an ancient lineage of marine vertebrates that evolved from terrestrial ancestors over 100 Mya. The genomic basis the unique physiological and ecological traits enabling these species to thrive in diverse habitats remains largely unknown. Additionally, many populations have drastically declined due anthropogenic activities past two centuries, their recovery is a high global conservation priority. We generated analyzed high-quality reference genomes for leatherback (...
Cetaceans are a group of aquatic mammals with the largest body sizes among living animals, including giant representatives such as blue and fin whales. To understand genetic bases gigantism in cetaceans, we performed molecular evolutionary analyses on five genes (GHSR, IGF2, IGFBP2, IGFBP7, EGF) from growth hormone/insulin-like factor axis, four (ZFAT, EGF, LCORL, PLAG1) previously described related to size species evolutionarily close pigs, cows, sheep. Our dataset comprised 19 seven which...
<ns5:p>We present a genome assembly from female specimen of <ns5:italic>Larus michahellis</ns5:italic> (Yellow-legged Gull; Chordata; Aves; Charadriiformes; Laridae). The sequence has total length 1,405.56 megabases. Most the (90.55%) is scaffolded into 35 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including W and Z sex chromosomes. mitochondrial also been assembled 16.79 kilobases in length.</ns5:p>
Even though Brazil is the world leader in amphibian diversity, a significant part of its richness remains unknown or hidden under cryptic taxa. Here, we used model-based species delimitation an integrative taxonomic approach, by gathering molecular and morphometric data to assess taxa within monkey frogs Pithecopus rohdei, from Atlantic Forest, P. megacephalus, campos rupestres ecosystem. We sampled one mitochondrial, five nuclear loci, 18 variables. Using species-delimitation methods with...
To perform an economic evaluation of duloxetine, pregabalin, and both branded generic gabapentin for managing pain in patients with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (PDPN) Mexico.The analysis was conducted using a 3-month decision model, which compares duloxetine 60 mg once daily (DUL), pregabalin 150 twice (PGB), 600 three-times (GBP) PDPN moderate-to-severe pain. A systematic review performed placebo-adjusted risk ratios achieving good relief (GPR), adverse events (AE), withdrawal...
Abstract The campo rupestre ecosystem is considered an old, climatically buffered, infertile landscape. As a consequence, long-term isolation thought to have played important role in the diversification of its biota. Here, we tested for hybridization between two endemic leaf frogs from rupestre. We used sequence markers and coalescent models verify haplotype sharing species, test existence direction gene flow, reconstruct spatiotemporal dynamics flow. Additionally, ecological niche modelling...

Abstract Background Echolocation was a key development in toothed whale evolution, enabling their adaptation and diversification across various environments. Previous bioacoustic morphological studies suggest that environmental pressures have influenced the evolution of echolocation whales. This hypothesis demands further investigation, especially regarding molecular mechanisms involved adaptive radiation whales multiple habitats. Here we show coding sequences four hearing genes ( CDH23 ,...

Abstract Transposable elements are known to induce variation in vertebrate genomes through their diversity and number, with related species usually presenting consistency the proportion abundance of TE families. Despite ancient divergence times, sea turtles Chelonia mydas Dermochelys coriacea show high levels overall genomic synteny gene collinearity, but there is still a lot explore regarding panorama. In light this, we analysed high-quality reference these species, which represent two...
Energetic homeostasis is the process responsible for balancing energy rates ingested and expelled from our organism. In most mammals, there a strict control of satiety regulation, through anorexigenic orexigenic peptides. However, some lineages mammals have different being able to not feed during months also going periods intense feeding, apparently without getting satisfaction. Notorious examples this behavior are migrating whales that perform long migrations. This project aims investigate...
