| weights of gaur (bos gaurus) and banteng (bos javanicus) killed by tigers in thailand. | the primary prey of tigers across much of south-east asia has been depleted, reducing the ability of already limited habitat to support tigers. to better understand the extent to which two of the largest prey species, gaur (bos gaurus) and banteng (bos javanicus), contribute to the tiger's diet, we estimated the average size of these species killed by tigers. this information is needed to more accurately calculate biomass of these species in the tiger's diet and to devise strategies to increase ... | 2020 | 32551089 |
| impact of prey occupancy and other ecological and anthropogenic factors on tiger distribution in thailand's western forest complex. | despite conservation efforts, large mammals such as tigers (panthera tigris) and their main prey, gaur (bos gaurus), banteng (bos javanicus), and sambar (rusa unicolor), are highly threatened and declining across their entire range. the only large viable source population of tigers in mainland southeast asia occurs in thailand's western forest complex (wefcom), an approximately 19,000 km2 landscape of 17 contiguous protected areas.we used an occupancy modeling framework, which accounts for imper ... | 2019 | 30891192 |
| evolution and domestication of the bovini species. | domestication of the bovini species (taurine cattle, zebu, yak, river buffalo and swamp buffalo) since the early holocene (ca. 10 000 bce) has contributed significantly to the development of human civilization. in this study, we review recent literature on the origin and phylogeny, domestication and dispersal of the three major bos species - taurine cattle, zebu and yak - and their genetic interactions. the global dispersion of taurine and zebu cattle was accompanied by population bottlenecks, w ... | 2020 | 32716565 |
| a genetically unique chinese cattle population shows evidence of common ancestry with wild species when analysed with a reduced ascertainment bias snp panel. | in hong kong, there is a cattle population of ~1,200 individuals of uncertain origin and genetic diversity. this population shows heterogeneous morphology, both in body type and pigmentation. once used as draught animals by the local farmers, they were abandoned around the 1970s due to changes in the economy, and since then have lived as feral populations. to explore the origins of these cattle, we analysed ~50k genotype data of 21 hong kong feral cattle, along with data from 703 individuals of ... | 2020 | 32271816 |
| mc1r and kit haplotypes associate with pigmentation phenotypes of north american yak (bos grunniens). | small numbers of domestic yak (bos grunniens) were imported to north america in the late 19th century indirectly from the qinghai-tibetan plateau. coat color of yak is of interest for fiber production, aesthetics, and as a potential indicator of recent hybridization with cattle. north american yak are classified into 3 major coat color patterns depending upon the presence and extent of white markings. they are further classified by nose pigmentation (black or gray). the aim of this study was to ... | 2020 | 31714577 |
| pervasive introgression facilitated domestication and adaptation in the bos species complex. | species of the bos genus, including taurine cattle, zebu, gayal, gaur, banteng, yak, wisent and bison, have been domesticated at least four times and have been an important source of meat, milk and power for many human cultures. we sequence the genomes of gayal, gaur, banteng, wisent and bison, and provide population genomic sequencing of an additional 98 individuals. we use these data to determine the phylogeny and evolutionary history of these species and show that the threatened gayal is an i ... | 2018 | 29784979 |
