Molecular evolution of the p53 network in reptiles
… on, genes within the p53 network differs between reptiles and mammals, and that these differences may underlie the evolution of stress response diversity. We analyzed 32 genes of the p53 network in both reptiles and mammals to compare the rates of evolutionary change and the modes of selection, …

Body Size Histories in Cenozoic Reptiles From Global to Community Scales
… relationship means that body size evolution in reptiles may be related to climatic change over time. In this thesis, I describe histories of maximum body size change in reptiles across the Cenozoic and examine which factors drive reptile size evolution at different scales. I characterize maximum …

Supplementary refuge as a tool for recovering small mammals and reptiles after fire
… 2019-2020 Black Summer fires. Small mammals and reptiles are of particular conservation concern due to their reliance on ground-level vegetation and woody debris, and increased vulnerability to predation in burnt landscapes. Despite the importance of post-fire conservation for these species, …

The Past, Present, and Future of Large Reptiles: Rewilding, Climate Change, and Conservation Palaeobiology
… is particularly relevant to the conservation of reptiles. Reptiles respond rapidly to climate change and support important ecosystem functions. As such, climate change is likely to cause local extinctions and range shifts of reptile species, disrupting the ecosystem functions they provide. …

Temporal and Spatial Trends of the Amphibians, Reptiles, and Mammals of the Relict Ottine Wetlands
… From January 2008 to June 2009, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals of Palmetto State Park and the Ottine Wetlands of south central Texas were surveyed to produce a current mammalian and herpetofaunal inventory and produce estimates of relative abundance, evenness and diversity. I compared my …

The Ecological Effects of Cattle Grazing on Reptiles and Small Mammals in a San Joaquin Valley Grassland
… San Joaquin Valley grassland on two target taxa: reptiles and small mammals. The study took place on the Chimineas Unit of the Carrizo Ecological Reserve, San Luis Obispo County, California during Fall 2009 and Spring 2010. These taxa were sampled on matched pairs of two grazed and two ungrazed …

MONITORING OF LEISHMANIA TARENTOLAE AND LEISHMANIA INFANTUM IN SAND FLIES AND SYNANTHROPIC REPTILES OF NORTHERN ITALY: EMERGING EPIDEMIOLOGICAL SCENARIOS?
… Leishmania tarentolae, which primarily infects reptiles and is transmitted by the sand fly Sergentomyia minuta. L. tarentolae is considered non-pathogenic to mammals and exposure to this parasite may elicit protective responses against pathogenic Leishmania infections. For this reason, screening …

The evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals: analyses of body size reduction and separation of middle ear elements from the jaw
… these groups. The evolutionary transition from reptiles to mammals is characterized by many remarkable changes, perhaps none more dramatic than the conversion of postdentary elements from the reptilian jaw into the middle ear of mammals. Reptiles and early synapsids possess multiple bones in the …
