Scatterhoarding rodents favor higher predation risks for cache sites: The potential for predators to influence the seed dispersal process
Tập 10 Số 3 - Trang 257-266 - 2015
AbstractScatterhoarding rodents often place caches in the open where pilferage
rates are reduced, suggesting that they tradeoff higher risks of predation for
more secure cache sites. We tested this hypothesis in two study systems by
measuring predation risks inferred from measures of giving‐up densities (GUDs)
at known cache sites and other sites for comparison. Rodent GUDs were measured
with smal...
Physiological adaptations of small mammals to desert ecosystems
Tập 4 Số 4 - Trang 357-366 - 2009
AbstractAdaptations of animals to the xeric environment have been studied in
various taxonomic groups and across several deserts. Despite the impressive data
that have been accumulated, the focus in most of these studies is mainly on the
significance of one variable at a time. Here, we attempt to integrate between
responses of several physiological systems, challenged by increasing diet and
water ...
Sumatran tiger (Panthera tigris sumatrae): A review of conservation status
Tập 5 Số 4 - Trang 313-323 - 2010
AbstractThe majority of wild Sumatran tigers are believed to live in 12 Tiger
Conservation Landscapes covering approximately 88 000 km2. However, the actual
distribution of tigers across Sumatra has never been accurately mapped. Over the
past 20 years, conservation efforts focused on the Sumatran tigers have
increased, but the population continues to decline as a result of several key
threats. To ...
Cultivated walnut trees showed earlier but not final advantage over its wild relatives in competing for seed dispersers
Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 12-25 - 2017
AbstractLittle is known about seeding regeneration of cultivated trees compared
to wild relatives in areas where seed dispersers are shared. Here, we
investigated the differences in seed fates of cultivated walnut (Juglans regia)
and wild Manchurian walnut (Juglans mandshurica) trees under rodent predation
and dispersal. J. regia seeds have higher nutritional value (large size, mass
and kernel mas...
Differentiation in seed hoarding among three sympatric rodent species in a warm temperate forest
Tập 3 Số 2 - Trang 134-142 - 2008
AbstractAlthough seed hoarding by rodents has been extensively studied,
differentiation in seed‐hoarding behaviors among sympatric rodent species has
not been well investigated. Using semi‐natural enclosures, we demonstrated that
three sympatric rodent species showed clear differentiation in food selection,
scatter versus larder hoarding behaviors and eating behaviors when offered seeds
of four pl...
Seed size affects rodent–seed interaction consistently across plant species but not within species: evidence from a seed tracking experiment of 41 tree species
Tập 17 Số 5 - Trang 930-943 - 2022
AbstractScatter‐hoarding rodents play a crucial role in seed survival and seed
dispersal. As one of the most important seed traits, seed size and its effect on
rodent–seed interaction attract lots of attention. Current studies usually
target one or a few species and show inconsistent patterns; however, few
experiments include a large number of species although many plant species
usually coexist in...
Distinctive diet‐tissue isotopic discrimination factors derived from the exclusive bamboo‐eating giant panda
Tập 11 Số 6 - Trang 447-456 - 2016
AbstractStable isotope analysis is very useful in animal ecology, especially in
diet reconstruction and trophic studies. Differences in isotope ratios between
consumers and their diet, termed discrimination factors, are essential for
studies of stable isotope ecology and are species‐specific and tissue‐specific.
Given the specialized bamboo diet and clear foraging behavior, here, we
calculated dis...
Anthropogenic pressures increase extinction risk of an isolated Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) population in southwestern China, as revealed by a combination of molecular‐ and landscape‐scale approaches
Tập 17 Số 6 - Trang 1078-1094 - 2022
AbstractIdentification of the effect of anthropogenic threats on ecosystem is
crucial. We used molecular tools and remote sensing to evaluate the population
status of an isolated Asian elephant population in southwestern China in
response to changes in habitat suitability between 1989 and 2019. A total of 22
unique genotypes were identified from 117 dung samples collected between March
and June 20...
Sagittal crest morphology decoupled from relative bite performance in Pleistocene tapirs (Perissodactyla: Tapiridae)
Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 254-277 - 2023
AbstractBite force is often associated with specific morphological features,
such as sagittal crests. The presence of a pronounced sagittal crest in some
tapirs (Perissodactyla: Tapiridae) was recently shown to be negatively
correlated with hard‐object feeding, in contrast with similar cranial structures
in carnivorans. The aim of this study was to investigate bite forces and
sagittal crest height...
Làm sạch kho hạt giống của cây bách phương tây bởi các động vật gặm nhấm phân thủy, thay đổi theo loại vi mô và loại tán Dịch bởi AI
Tập 17 Số 2 - Trang 192-205 - 2022
**Mô tả** Các loài gặm nhấm phân thủy lưu trữ hạt giống khắp nơi trong khu vực
hoạt động của chúng trong những hầm chứa nông cạn trên bề mặt, khác với những
hạt giống dự trữ sâu trong hang ổ, rất khó bảo vệ. Các hạt giống đã được chôn
thường bị trộm cắp bởi các loài gặm nhấm khác và hoặc được tái chôn, ăn hoặc đưa
vào kho dự trữ. Những chuyển động của hạt giống như vậy có thể ảnh hưởng đến quá
trì...
