Uncovering the magnitude of African pangolin poaching with extensive nanopore DNA genotyping of seized scalesNARA Subscribed
Trade in pangolins is illegal, and yet tons of their scales and products are seized at various ports. These large seizures are challenging to process and comprehensively genotype for upstream provenance tracing and species identification for prosecution. We implemented a scalable DNA barcoding pipeline in which rapid DNA extraction and MinION sequencing were used to genotype a substantial proportion of pangolin scales subsampl...
Effect of dietary cholesterol on ovarian development of Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis)OA Marine
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of cholesterol (CHO) on ovarian development of Eriocheir sinensis through a feeding trial. Crabs (average weight 43.35 ± 0.05 g) were randomly fed with one of three diets: 0% CHO, 0.4% CHO and 1.6% CHO for 16 weeks. Results indicated that the hepatosomatic index (HSI) and gonad index (GSI) of crabs fed with 0.4% CHO diet were significantly higher than those in the control group....
