Book Synopsis Population Genetics of Kangaroo Mice, Microdipodops (rodentia: Heteromyidae) by : John Andersen
Download or read book Population Genetics of Kangaroo Mice, Microdipodops (rodentia: Heteromyidae) written by John Andersen and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dark (Microdipodops megacephalus) and pallid (Microdipodops pallidus) kangaroo mice are ecological specialists found in arid regions of the Great Basin Desert of the southwestern United States. Historical and current habitat alterations have resulted in disjunct distributions and severely diminished abundance of both species. Phylogenetic and phylogeographic research has discovered unique mitochondrial clades within M. megacephalus (eastern, central, western, and Idaho clades) and M. pallidus (eastern and western clades). Population-genetic analyses targeting the same mitochondrial markers also have found low amounts of maternal gene flow among the clades. However, little is known about population structure and genetic demography (historical and current migration rates, historical and current effective population sizes) within each mitochondrial clade. Herein, nuclear-encoded microsatellite loci were isolated to evaluate the underlying processes that may have molded kangaroo mouse relationships and distributions. Results from population-genetic analyses support previous findings that there are at least three genetically distinct clades within M. megacephalus and two such clades within M. pallidus. Three clades of M. megacephalus appear to have undergone different demographic histories, with little to no migration among clades. The two clades of M. pallidus also appear to have experienced varying demographic change although there has been small but recent migration between them. Additionally, the contemporary effective population sizes of all clades within Microdipodops appear to be low, suggesting that these populations may have difficulty coping with environmental pressures and hence are at risk of extinction. Results of this study are consistent with the recommendation that each Microdipodops clade should be managed as separate units and continually monitored in an effort to conserve these highly specialized taxa.
Book Synopsis Rodent Societies by : Jerry O. Wolff
Download or read book Rodent Societies written by Jerry O. Wolff and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rodent Societies synthesizes and integrates the current state of knowledge about the social behavior of rodents, providing ecological and evolutionary contexts for understanding their societies and highlighting emerging conservation and management strategies to preserve them. It begins with a summary of the evolution, phylogeny, and biogeography of social and nonsocial rodents, providing a historical basis for comparative analyses. Subsequent sections focus on group-living rodents and characterize their reproductive behaviors, life histories and population ecology, genetics, neuroendocrine mechanisms, behavioral development, cognitive processes, communication mechanisms, cooperative and uncooperative behaviors, antipredator strategies, comparative socioecology, diseases, and conservation. Using the highly diverse and well-studied Rodentia as model systems to integrate a variety of research approaches and evolutionary theory into a unifying framework, Rodent Societies will appeal to a wide range of disciplines, both as a compendium of current research and as a stimulus for future collaborative and interdisciplinary investigations.

Book Synopsis Fascia: The Tensional Network of the Human Body by : Robert Schleip
Download or read book Fascia: The Tensional Network of the Human Body written by Robert Schleip and published by Elsevier Health Sciences. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the product of an important collaboration between clinicians of the manual therapies and scientists in several disciplines that grew out of the three recent International Fascia Research Congresses (Boston, Amsterdam, and Vancouver). The book editors, Thomas Findley MD PhD, Robert Schleip PhD, Peter Huijing PhD and Leon Chaitow DO, were major organizers of these congresses and used their extensive experience to select chapters and contributors for this book. This volume therefore brings together contributors from diverse backgrounds who share the desire to bridge the gap between theory and practice in our current knowledge of the fascia and goes beyond the 2007, 2009 and 2012 congresses to define the state-of-the-art, from both the clinical and scientific perspective. Prepared by over 100 specialists and researchers from throughout the world, Fascia: The Tensional Network of the Human Body will be ideal for all professionals who have an interest in fascia and human movement - physiotherapists, osteopathic physicians, osteopaths, chiropractors, structural integration practitioners, manual therapists, massage therapists, acupuncturists, yoga or Pilates instructors, exercise scientists and personal trainers - as well as physicians involved with musculoskeletal medicine, pain management and rehabilitation, and basic scientists working in the field. Reflects the efforts of almost 100 scientists and clinicians from throughout the world Offers comprehensive coverage ranging from anatomy and physiology, clinical conditions and associated therapies, to recently developed research techniques Explores the role of fascia as a bodywide communication system Presents the latest information available on myofascial force transmission which helps establish a scientific basis for given clinical experiences Explores the importance of fascia as a sensory organ - for example, its important proprioceptive and nociceptive functions which have implications for the generation of low back pain Describes new imaging methods which confirm the connectivity of organs and tissues Designed to organize relevant information for professionals involved in the therapeutic manipulation of the body’s connective tissue matrix (fascia) as well as for scientists involved in basic science research Reflects the increasing need for information about the properties of fascia, particularly for osteopaths, massage therapists, physiotherapists and other complementary health care professionals Offers new insights on the fascial related foundations of Traditional Chinese Medicine Meridians and the fascial effects of acupuncture
