The use of a multivariate statistical procedure in analysing the germination process of two bean cultivars, compared with a univariate approach
Bianconi, André; Govone, José Silvio ; ; (Proceedings of the International Academy of Ecology and Environmental Sciences, 2011) [Artigo]
Several studies on plant physiology are aimed at describing or assessing seed germination processes under laboratory conditions. With respect to seed germination of crop species, some statistical complexities have been ... -
Autonomic control of post-air-breathing tachycardia in Clarias gariepinus (Teleostei: Clariidae)

The African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) is a teleost with bimodal respiration that utilizes a paired suprabranchial chamber located in the gill cavity as an air-breathing organ. Like all air-breathing fishes studied to ... -
Differences in physiological traits associated with water balance among rodents, and their relationship to tolerance of habitat fragmentation

Physiological concepts and tools can help us to understand why organisms and populations respond to habitat fragmentation in the way they do, and allow us to determine the mechanisms or individual characteristics underlying ... -
Differences in larval nutritional requirements and female oviposition preference reflect the order of fruit colonization of Zaprionus indianus and Drosophila simulans
Matavelli, Cristiane; ; ; (Journal Of Insect Physiology, 2015) [Artigo]
Species coexist using the same nutritional resource by partitioning it either in space or time, but few studies explore how species-specific nutritional requirements allow partitioning. Zaprionus indianus and Drosophila ... -
Anuran skin and basking behavior: the case of the treefrog Bokermannohyla alvarengai (Bokermann, 1956)
Centeno, Fernanda C.; ; Andrade, Denis V. ; ; ; ; (Journal Of Morphology, 2015) [Artigo]
We investigated the morphology of the skin and the biochemistry of the lipids in the skin secretion of Bokermannohyla alvarengai, a montane treefrog that is known to bask regularly, motionless in full sunlight for extended ... -
Blood oxygen affinity increases during digestion in the South American rattlesnake, Crotalus durissus terrificus
Bovo, Rafael P.; Fuga, Adriana ; Micheli-Campbell, Mariana A. ; ; Andrade, Denis V. (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology. Part A, Molecular and Integrative Physiology, 2015) [Artigo]
Digesting snakes experience massive increases in metabolism that can last for many days and are accompanied by adjustments in the oxygen transport cascade. Accordingly, we examined the oxygen-binding properties of the blood ... -
Road-kills of the giant anteater in south-eastern Brazil: 10 years monitoring spatial and temporal determinants
Freitas, Carlos H. de; ; (Wildlife Research, 2014) [Artigo]
Context. The giant anteater, Myrmecophaga tridactyla, is a large insectivorous mammal from Cerrado which is classified as vulnerable by the IUCN's red list. In spite of frequent giant anteater casualties, there continues ... -

Systemic blood flow relations in conscious South American rattlesnakes
Filogonio, Renato; Taylor, Edwin W. ; Carreira, Laura B. T. ; ; Abe, Augusto S. ; (South American Journal Of Herpetology, 2014) [Artigo]
Estimating total systemic blood flow based on measurements from a single aortic arch is common practice in cardiovascular studies on reptiles to avoid heavy instrumentation and consequent stress responses. This practice ... -
Two new species of the feather mite genus Analloptes (Trouessart, 1885) (Acariformes: Astigmata: Xolalgidae) from passerines (Aves: Passeriformes) in Brazil
; Hernandes, Fabio Akashi (Zootaxa, 2014) [Artigo]
Two new feather mite species of the genus Analloptes Trouessart, 1885 (Acariformes: Xolalgidae) are described from suboscine passerines (Passeriformes) in Brazil: Analloptes giganteus sp. n. from Conopophaga lineata (Wied) ... -
Osteologia do neurocrânio de Iguana iguana iguana (Squamata: Iguanidae)
; ; Abe, Augusto S.; (Pesquisa Veterinaria Brasileira, 2014) [Artigo]
Skull represents the segment with conspicuous adaptations that, in lizards, may be conservative or promoted by selective pressures. The aim of assisting the morphological knowledge of reptiles, we provide a detailed ... -
Big, bad, and beautiful: phylogenetic relationships of the horned frogs (Anura: Ceratophryidae)

Frugivores at higher risk of extinction are the key elements of a mutualistic network
; ; Pizo, Marco A.; ; ; (Ecology, 2014) [Artigo]
Most tree species rely on vertebrates for seed dispersal, and many vertebrates use fruits as food resources in tropical forests. Therefore, plant-frugivore interactions affect population dynamics and persistence in ecological ... -
