13. The use of microsatellite markers in Neotropical studies of wild birds: a literature review
ABSTRACT Despite extensive habitat fragmentation, the Neotropical region possesses 30% of the world´s bird species. Microsatellites have remained one of the most popular genetic markers and have been used in ecological and conservation studies since the 1990’s. We conducted a literature review comparing the number of papers published from January 1990 to

14. SURVEILLANCE FOR NEWCASTLE DISEASE VIRUS, AVIAN INFLUENZA VIRUS AND MYCOPLASMA GALLISEPTICUM IN WILD BIRDS NEAR COMMERCIAL POULTRY FARMS SURROUNDED BY ATLANTIC RAINFOREST REMNANTS, SOUTHEASTERN BRAZIL
ABSTRACT The geographic overlap between areas of Atlantic rainforest and human activities allows interactions to occur between humans and wild and domestic animals. Despite the great importance of the domestic animal-wildlife-human interface that occurs at poultry farms in terms of public health, economic production and wildlife conservation, there are few s

15. Evolutionary analysis of apolipoprotein E by Maximum Likelihood and complex network methods
Abstract Apolipoprotein E (apo E) is a human glycoprotein with 299 amino acids, and it is a major component of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) and a group of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Phylogenetic studies are important to clarify how various apo E proteins are related in groups of organisms and whether they evolved from a common ancestor. Here, w

17. Food consumption as an indicator of the conservation of natural resources in riverine communities of the Brazilian Amazon
RESUMO O presente estudo analisou e comparou o consumo diário de alimentos de origem animal em onze comunidades dos rios do Baixo Amazonas, Trombetas, e Purus, representando três diferentes sistemas de manejo e níveis de conservação na Amazônia brasileira. Todos os alimentos de origem animal foram pesados em pelo menos 10% das famílias das comunidades

18. Determinants of capture-recapture success: an evaluation of trapping methods to estimate population and community parameters for Atlantic forest small mammals
ABSTRACT Efficiently obtaining high-quality data on animal populations and communities is paramount for ecological and conservation studies. In many instances these data come from live-trapping, the success of which depends on various factors, such as the interaction between the trap's mechanisms and the morphological or ecological characteristics of the ani

19. Plant diversity in hedgerows amidst Atlantic Forest fragments
Hedgerows are linear structures found in agricultural landscapes that may facilitate dispersal of plants and animals and also serve as habitat. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships among diversity and ecological traits of woody plants, hedgerow characteristics (size, age, and origin), and the structure of the surrounding Atlantic Forest

20. Microbial quality of soil from the Pampa biome in response to different grazing pressures
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different grazing pressures on the activity and diversity of soil bacteria. We performed a long-term experiment in Eldorado do Sul, southern Brazil, that assessed three levels of grazing pressure: high pressure (HP), with 4% herbage allowance (HA), moderate pressure (MP), with 12% HA, and low pressure (LP),

21. Preventing injuries caused by radiotelemetry collars in reintroduced red-rumped agoutis, Dasyprocta leporina (Rodentia: Dasyproctidae), in Atlantic Forest, southeastern Brazil
Reintroduction has been recognized as a powerful conservation tool, but in order to ensure its success, animal monitoring is highly recommended. One way to monitor released animals is to put radiotelemetry collars on them. These devices, however, can harm the subjects, causing serious wounds. Our objectives in this work were to describe the injuries caused b

22. Investigação soroepidemiológica e molecular de brucelose e leptospirose em núcleos de conservação de gado curraleiro pé duro e pantaneiro / Seroepidemiological and molecular monitoring of brucellosis and leptospirosis in nucleus of in situ conservation of curraleiro pé-duro and pantaneiro breeds
As raças bovinas localmente adaptadas aos diferentes ecossistemas brasileiros caracterizam-se como uma alternativa para produção de alimentos, por apresentarem entre outras características, maior resistência a enfermidades. O objetivo geral foi avaliar a situação epidemiológica da brucelose e da leptospirose em núcleos de conservação de bovinos Cu

23. Efeitos de diferentes matrizes no risco de predação e na movimentação de uma ave florestal / Effects of different matrices at risk of predation and movement of forest bird
Forest fragmentation alters landscape structure and its relationship with organisms, and movement is one of the most affected behaviors. Individuals who are faced with an heterogeneous landscape, composed of habitat and non-habitat areas (i.e., matrix), need to cross the non-habitat matrix in the search for resources. The choice of motion is then made by an

24. USO DE DILUENTES ALTERNATIVOS A BAIXAS TEMPERATURAS NA MANUTENÇÃO DA QUALIDADE ESPERMÁTICA DO SÊMEN SUÍNO / USE OF ALTERNATIVE SOLVENTS AT LOW TEMPERATURES IN THE MAINTENANCE OF SPERM QUALITY OF SWINE SEMEN
Countless studies have been conducted with the purpose of improving the conservation of boar semen, either with the use of diluents or alternative temperature ranges, or adding antioxidants or amino acid to the diluent. The present study aimed to define an alternative diluent and temperature preservation of boar semen and evaluate the effects of adding trolo
