Equinodermos (Asteroidea; Echinoidea) de la demarcación marina noratlántica española.
(UMA Editorial, 2024)Spain is divided into five marine subdivisions: North Atlantic Spanish Marine Sub-Division (NAMD), South Atlantic Spanish Marine Sub-Division (SASD), Strait of Gibaltar and Alborán Sea Spanish Marine Sub-Division (GSMD), ... -
Taxonomic revision and molecular phylogeny of Pisa (Decapoda: Majoidea: Epialtidae), including the description of a new genus of Pisinae.
(CSIC, 2023-12-20)The spider crabs of the genus Pisa Leach, 1814 (Epialtidae: Pisinae) are reviewed in this study based on mor- phological and molecular data (16S and COI genes). From these results, a new genus, Afropisa n. gen., is established ... -
Biogeografía aplicada al estudio de enfermedades zoonóticas: el caso del virus del Nilo Occidental en Europa y África.
(UMA Editorial, 2024)La biogeografía es una disciplina que se extiende desde la biogeografía histórica hasta la biogeografía ecológica, incluyendo el estudio de enfermedades infecciosas, conocido como patogeografía. Esta área de estudio revela ... -
Modelling the distribution of Bonelli’s eagle in Spain: implications for conservation planning.
(2005-11-07)Bonelli’s eagle, Hieraaetus fasciatus , has recently suffered a severe population decline and is currently endangered. Spain supports about 70% of the European population. We used stepwise logistic regression on a set of ... -
Wind turbines cause functional habitat loss for migratory soaring birds.
(2019-02-14)Wind energy production has expanded to meet climate change mitigation goals, but negative impacts of wind turbines have been reported on wildlife. Soaring birds are among the most affected groups with alarming fatality ... -
Fuzzy sets allow gaging the extent and rate of species range shift due to climate change.
(Springer Nature, 2020-10-01)The recent modification of species distribution ranges in response to a warmer climate has constituted a major and generalized biogeographic change. The main driver of the shift in distribution is the disequilibrium of the ... -
Etiofisiopatología de la enfermedad de la válvula aórtica bicúspide en modelos animales.
(UMA Editorial, 2024)La válvula aórtica bicúspide (VAB) es la anomalía congénita más común en humanos. Esta anomalía puede ser de dos tipos: antero-posterior o latero-lateral. Esta condición es hereditaria y sigue un patrón de herencia autosómica ... -
Development of the ventricular myocardial trabeculae in Scyliorhinus canicula (Chondrichthyes): evolutionary implications
(Springer, 2020)The development of the ventricular myocardial trabeculae occurs in three steps: emergence, trabeculation and remodeling. The whole process has been described in vertebrates with two different myocardial structural types, ... -
Experimental evidence of the genetic hypothesis on the etiology of bicuspid aortic valve aortopathy in the hamster model
(Frontiers, 2022)Bicuspid aortopathy occurs in approximately 50% of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most prevalent congenital cardiac malformation. Although different molecular players and etiological factors (genetic and ... -
Differential expression of myosin heavy chain isoforms in cardiac segments of gnathostome vertebrates and its evolutionary implications
(BioMed Central (Springer Nature), 2019)Immunohistochemical studies of hearts from the lesser spotted dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicular (Chondrichthyes) revealed that the pan-myosin heavy chain (pan-MyHC) antibody MF20 homogeneously labels all the myocardium, while ... -
Nest light environment and potential risk of cuckoo parasitism.
(2007-04-01)Brood parasitism represents a significant cost in reproduction; thus, natural selection should favor the evolution of host defenses, which in turn may favor evolution of more sophisticated techniques by the parasite to ... -
The anatomical components of the cardiac outflow tract of chondrichthyans and actinopterygians
(Cambridge University Press, 2018)The outflow tract (OF) of the fish heart is the segment interposed between the ventricle and the ventral aorta. It holds the valves that prevent blood backflow from the gill vasculature to the ventricle. This paper offers ... -
Myosin heavy chain isoforms in the myocardium of the atrioventricular junction of Scyliorhinus canicula (Chondrichthyes, Carcharhiniformes)
(Wiley, 2020)The atrioventricular (AV) junction of the fish heart, interposed between the atrium and the ventricle, has been studied anatomically and histologically in several chondrichthyan and teleost species. Nonetheless, knowledge ... -
Bicuspid Aortic Valve in 2 Model Species and Review of the Literature
(Sage Publications INC, 2020-02-21)Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common human congenital cardiac malformation. Although the etiology is unknown for most patients, formation of the 2 main BAV anatomic types (A and B) has been shown to rely on ... -
Embryonic development of bicuspid aortic valves.
(Elsevier, 2020-06-25)Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, frequently associated with aortopathies and valvulopathies. The congenital origin of BAV is suspected to impact the development of the disease ... -
New measures for assessing model equilibrium and prediction mismatch in species distribution models.
(Wiley, 2013-06-19)Models based on species distributions are widely used and serve important purposes in ecology, biogeography and conservation. Their continuous predictions of environmental suitability are commonly converted into a binary ... -
Environmental favourability as a cost-efficient tool to estimate carrying capacity.
(Wiley, 2015-08-11)The way in which environmental conditions determine the distribution and abundance of species is a crucial topic in ecology, biogeography and conservation. It is especially important to understand the nature of this ... -
Environmental factors determining the establishment of the African Long-legged Buzzard Buteo rufinus cirtensis in Western Europe
(Wiley, 2017)Winters have become warmer under the impact of climate change, which has modified the phenology as well as the distribution ranges of birds. The African Longlegged Buzzard Buteo rufinus cirtensis has recently colonized ... -
