| genetic diversity and genetic structure of an endemic mexican dusky rattlesnake (crotalus triseriatus) in a highly modified agricultural landscape: implications for conservation. | it is necessary to determine genetic diversity of fragmented populations in highly modified landscapes to understand how populations respond to land-use change. this information will help guide future conservation and management strategies. we conducted a population genetic study on an endemic mexican dusky rattlesnake (crotalus triseriatus) in a highly modified landscape near the toluca metropolitan area, in order to provide crucial information for the conservation of this species. there was me ... | 2015 | 26497875 |
| comparative thermal ecology parameters of the mexican dusky rattlesnake (crotalus triseriatus). | montane habitats exhibit a high degree of thermal heterogeneity, and thus provide considerable thermoregulatory challenges for ectotherms. comparative analyses provide an opportunity to understand how variation in abiotic factors (e.g., operative temperatures, thermal quality) can affect life history traits within species. we studied the thermal ecology of three populations of the rattlesnake crotalus triseriatus inhabiting different volcanoes in the central region of mexico using the hertz et a ... | 2020 | 32888579 |
