the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of buteo hemilasius (falconiformes: accipitridae).	in this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of the upland buzzard (buteo hemilasius) was sequenced and reported for the first time using the muscle tissue. the mitochondrial genome is a circular molecule of 18 079 bp in length, consisting of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer rna genes, 2 ribosomal rna genes, 1 control region, and 1 extra pseudo-control region. a phylogenetic analysis on the basis of 12 protein-coding genes (except nd6 gene) of 14 falconiformes species' mitochondrial geno ...	2017	26714217
maxent modeling for predicting the spatial distribution of three raptors in the sanjiangyuan national park, china.	upland buzzard (buteo hemilasius), saker falcon (falco cherrug), and himalayan vulture (gyps himalayensis) are three common large raptors in the sanjiangyuan national park (snp), china's first national park. among them, upland buzzard and saker falcon play a significant role in controlling plateau rodent populations and reducing the transmission of pathogens carried by rodents. the himalayan vulture can provide services for the redistribution and recycling of nutrients in the ecosystem, and play ...	2019	31236249
terrestrial mercury transformation in the tibetan plateau: new evidence from stable isotopes in upland buzzards.	understanding the geochemical cycle of mercury (hg) in the high-altitude tibetan plateau is of great value for studying the long-range transport of hg. herein, speciation and isotopic compositions of hg in the muscle and feathers of upland buzzards (buteo hemilasius) were studied to trace the terrestrial transformation of hg in the tibetan plateau. very low hg content and relatively low δ202hg values (feather: -0.77 ± 0.50‰, n = 9, muscle: -1.29 ± 0.29‰, n = 13, 1sd) were observed in upland buzz ...	2020	32593022
