Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial phylogeography of European pond turtles (Emys orbicularis, Emys trinacris) – an update
Antonia Celani,Peter Havaš,Sandro Tripepi,Viner F. Khabibullin,Andrey G. Bakiev,Soumia Fahd,Uwe Fritz,Guillermo Velo Antón,Pavel Široký,Haji Gholi Kami,Daniela Guicking,Aitor Valdeón Vélez,Markus Auer,Michael Wink,Ulrich Joger,Marine Arakelyan,Georg Džukić,César Ayres Fernández,Lyudmila F.

TL;DR: Data on mtDNA diversity and distribution of haplotypes are provided, including for the first time data for Armenia, Georgia, Iran, and the Volga, Ural and Turgay River Basins of Russia and Kazakhstan, suggestive of Holocene range expansions on a smaller scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host specificity and foraging efficiency in blood-sucking parasite: feeding patterns of the flea Parapulex chephrenis on two species of desert rodents.
Boris R. Krasnov,M. Sarfati,Marine Arakelyan,Irina S. Khokhlova,Nadezhda V. Burdelova,A. Allan Degen +5 more
TL;DR: The absence of P. chephrenis on G. dasyurus in nature and the decreased foraging efficiency when feeding on this species in the laboratory suggests that some physiological and biochemical differences between hosts can lead to sharp ecological differences in host-parasite relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is a starving host tastier? Reproduction in fleas parasitizing food‐limited rodents
TL;DR: The results suggest nutritional and/or energetic cost of host resistance, measured as host-mediated parasite fitness loss, as well as possible adaptive stress-induced immunosuppression, in fleas parasitizing underfed animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parthenogenesis through the ice ages: A biogeographic analysis of Caucasian rock lizards (genus Darevskia).
Susana Freitas,Susana Freitas,Sara Rocha,João Carlos Campos,Faraham Ahmadzadeh,Claudia Corti,Neftalí Sillero,Çetin Ilgaz,Yusuf Kumlutaş,Marine Arakelyan,D. James Harris,Miguel A. Carretero +11 more
TL;DR: Ecological niche models identify the region where hybridization events leading to the formation of D. unisexualis took place, namely in the northeast of the current distribution, and suggest that the sexual D. raddei might have undergone a habitat shift between the Last Interglacial and the Last Glacial Maximum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hybrids of Darevskia valentini, D. armeniaca and D. unisexualis from a sympatric population in Armenia
TL;DR: The long-term monitoring has showed an increasing birth rate of triploid hybrids in this mixed population of rock lizard species Darevskia, and the frequency of captured males with fully developed reproductive systems and presumably fertile females also increased significantly.
