Data from: Molecular responses to temperature changes across timescales in the Madagascar ground gecko (Paroedura picta)

Fuku Sakamoto, Shunsuke Kanamori, Felix Rakotondraparany, Takashi T Makino et autres

Short-term responses to temperature stress, such as heat waves, and long-term acclimation to temperature changes, including seasonal shifts and global warming, are expected to be mediated by distinct molecular pathways. However, in ectotherms, such as reptiles, the effects of exposure duration on …

Re‐Evaluating the Population History of Malagasy Native Cattle Reveals Shared African Taurine‐Related Ancestry but Distinct Indicine Admixture Histories Relative to East African Cattle

Jiaqi Wu, Hideki Endo, Felix Rakotondraparany, Fanomezana Mihaja Ratsoavina et autres

ABSTRACT East African cattle, including Malagasy native cattle (ZMA), are generally thought to have been shaped by admixture between African taurine and Asian indicine lineages, but the detailed position and formation history of ZMA within this broader diversity remain unclear. We analyzed …

Origin and spatial population structure of Malagasy native chickens based on mitochondrial DNA

Takahiro Yonezawa, Hideyuki Mannen, Kaho Honma, Megumi Matsunaga et autres

Since Malagasy human culture became established in a multi-layered way by genetic admixture of Austronesian (Indonesia), Bantu (East Africa) and West Asian populations, the Malagasy native livestock should also have originated from these regions. While recent genetic studies revealed that Malagasy native …

Phylogeographic Analysis of Madagascan Goats Using mtDNA Control Region and SRY Gene Sequences

Risa Tabata, Fuki Kawaguchi, Shinji Sasazaki, Yoshio Yamamoto et autres

In the present study, we estimated the genetic diversity and relationships, as well as the propagation routes, of Madagascan goats using mtDNA control region and SRY gene sequences. The mtDNA sequences of 40 Madagascan goats revealed 10 haplotypes and a quite low …

Review of the status and conservation of tenrecs (Mammalia: Afrotheria: Tenrecidae)

Peter J. Stephenson, Voahangy Soarimalala, Steven Michael Goodman, Martin E. Nicoll et autres

Abstract The mammal family Tenrecidae (Afrotheria: Afrosoricida) is endemic to Madagascar. Here we present the conservation priorities for the 31 species of tenrec that were assessed or reassessed in 2015–2016 for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Six species (19.4%) were …

Forest Vertebrate Fauna and Local Knowledges Among the Tandroy People in Berenty Researve, Southern Madagascar: A Preliminary Study

Shinichiro Ichino, Teruya Maehata, Hajanirina Fanomezantsoa Rakotomanana, Felix Rakotondraparany

We studied the forest vertebrate fauna of Berenty Reserve and the local Tandroy people's knowledge of these species. Berenty Reserve is a small reserve (about 250 ha) that contains gallery forest, scrub forest, and spiny forest. In spite of the reserve's small …

Characterization of the Tree Holes Used by Lepilemur ruficaudatus in the Dry, Deciduous Forest of Kirindy Mitea National Park

Elvis J Rakotomalala, Felix Rakotondraparany, Amanda C. Perofsky, Rebecca J. Lewis

Knowledge of the key resources for a species is critical for developing an effective conservation strategy. Kirindy Mitea National Park is an important refuge for the red-tailed sportive lemur (Lepilemur ruficaudatus), a nocturnal folivorous lemur endemic to the dry deciduous forest of …

Diversity of photoreceptor arrangements in nocturnal, cathemeral and diurnal Malagasy lemurs

Leo Peichl, Alexander M. Kaiser, Felix Rakotondraparany, Richard Redd Dubielzig et autres

The lemurs of Madagascar (Primates: Lemuriformes) are a monophyletic group that has lived in isolation from other primates for about 50 million years. Lemurs have diversified into species with diverse daily activity patterns and correspondingly different visual adaptations. We assessed the arrangements …
