Seasonally reproducing animals show many behavioral and physiological changes during the mating period, including increased signaling for intrasexual competition and mate attraction. We collected 102 anogenital gland ...
Meeting human needs while sustaining ecosystems and the benefits they provide is a global challenge.A major barrier to achieve sustainable development goals is the lack of sufficient knowledge on the complex relations...
Giant pandas (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) belong to the bear family (Urisidae) within the order Carnivora and specialize on a diet of bamboo, but still retain a typical carnivoran gastrointestinal tract. Consequently,...
A 10-fold BAC library for the giant panda was constructed and nine BACs were selected to generate finish sequences.These BACs could be used as a validation resource for the de novo assembly accuracy of the whole genom...
