| genetic diversity and relationship of mauremys mutica and m. annamensis assessed by dna barcoding sequences. | the mitochondrial dna cytochrome c oxidase subunit i gene (coi) has been used as an efficient barcoding tool for species identification of animals. in this study, the barcoding sequences were used to assess the genetic diversity and relationship of mauremy mutica and m. annamensis. four currently recognized groups of m. mutica were classified into two groups in this study, with 6% intergroup distances, the s group and the n group, consistent to the calling of "southern turtle" and "northern turt ... | 2016 | 26260182 |
| comparison of complete mitochondrial dna control regions among five asian freshwater turtle species and their phylogenetic relationships. | the complete mitochondrial dna (mtdna) control regions (cr), cytochrome b (cyt b), nadh dehydrogenase subunit 4 (nd4) and cytochrome coxidase subunit i (co i) genes of four asian freshwater turtles, mauremys japonica, ocadia sinensis, m. mutica, and annamemys annamensis, were sequenced using universal pcr and long-pcr techniques. combined with cr sequences of chinemys reevesii, the composition and structure of cr of the five species were compared and analyzed. three functional domains (tas, cd a ... | 2011 | 21863550 |
| hepatic ct attenuation differs in three species of freshwater turtles and hepatic hounsfield units increase with folliculogenesis in wild blanding's turtles (emydoidea blandingii). | freshwater turtle species are suffering from anthropocentric-caused population declines, making preservation of professionally managed populations increasingly important. turtles under professional care have an increased risk to develop hepatic lipidosis, potentially resulting in early death. computed tomography can provide an antemortem screening for increased fatty liver composition. a goal of this prospective analytical cross-sectional study was to assess the hepatic attenuation measured as h ... | 2020 | 31858683 |
