DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10916
Abstract: Abstract Using acoustics to survey for bats has increased as the need for data on increasingly rare species has also increased. We set out to better understand the difference between mist netting and acoustic detection… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2017.07.065
Abstract: Nuclear mitochondrial DNA sequences (NUMTs) have been documented in almost all eukaryotic genomes studied. Recently, with the number of sequenced genomes increasing, extremely large NUMTs, even a nearly entire mitochondrial genome, have been reported in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jproteome.2c00600
Abstract: White-nose syndrome (WNS)-positive little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus) may exhibit immune responses including increased cytokine and pro-inflammatory mediator gene levels. Bioactive lipid mediators (oxylipins) formed by enzymatic oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids can contribute to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jmammal/gyw181
Abstract: Characterizing habitat use is a key component to quantifying the niche, ecological interactions, and conservation needs of a species. Habitat selection is the disproportionate use of habitat types, whereby animals select higher-quality habitats within a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/eva.13748
Abstract: Genome‐wide scans for selection have become a popular tool for investigating evolutionary responses in wildlife to emerging diseases. However, genome scans are susceptible to false positives and do little to demonstrate specific mechanisms by which… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2025.40.s1.1746
Abstract: Cells of organisms encounter varying conditions, including daily and potentially seasonal fluctuations in available glucose. These fluctuations correspond primarily to feeding status and nutritional intake, with fed and fasted values ranging from ~4-7 mmol/L in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v15051103
Abstract: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), believed to have originated from a bat species, can infect a wide range of non-human hosts. Bats are known to harbor hundreds of coronaviruses capable of spillover into human… read more here.
