P.; Vilanova, Emilio; Wang, Maria M. H.; Martius, Christopher; Herold, Martin (2019)

  As countries advance in greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting for climate change mitigation, consistent estimates of aboveground net biomass change (?AGB) are needed. Countries with limited forest monitoring capabilities in the ...
• Responsiveness of the cheetah (<I>Acinonyx jubatus</I>) ovary to exogenous gonadotropins after preemptive oral progestin treatment 

  Thuwanut, Paweena; Brown, Janine L.; Comizzoli, Pierre; Crosier, Adrienne E. (2019)

  Control of ovarian function in cheetahs is sub-optimal, which currently limits the integration of assisted reproductive techniques into the genetic management of that endangered species. The objective of this study was to ...

  Gibson, Keylie M.; Nguyen, Bryan N.; Neumann, Laura M.; Miller, Michele; Buss, Peter; Daniels, Savel; Ahn, Michelle J.; Crandall, Keith A.; Pukazhenthi, Budhan (2019)

  A number of recent studies have shown the importance of the mammalian gut microbiome in host health. In the context of endangered species, a few studies have examined the relationship between the gut microbiome in wild ...
• Fungal disease and temperature alter skin microbiome structure in an experimental salamander system 

  Muletz-Wolz, Carly; Fleischer, Robert C.; Lips, Karen R. (2019)

  Pathogens compete with host microbiomes for space and resources. Their shared environment impacts pathogen-microbiome-host interactions, which can lead to variation in disease outcome. The skin microbiome of red-backed ...
