Physiological resistance of grasshopper mice (Onychomys spp.) to Arizona bark scorpion (Centruroides exilicauda) venom

TOXICON, 52(5), 597–605.

By: A. Rowe n & M. Rowe*

author keywords: Centruroides; Grasshopper mouse; Onychomys; Predator-prey coevolution; Reciprocal selection; Scorpion; Venom resistance; Venom toxicity
MeSH headings : Adaptation, Physiological; Animals; Arvicolinae / physiology; Lethal Dose 50; Neurotoxins / toxicity; Scorpion Venoms / toxicity; Species Specificity
TL;DR: Venom resistance in the mice showed intra- and interspecific variability that covaried with bark scorpion sympatry and allopatry, patterns consistent with the hypothesis that venom resistance in grasshopper mice is an adaptive response to feeding on their neurotoxic prey.

Risk assessment by grasshopper mice (Onychomys spp.) feeding on neurotoxic prey (Centruroides spp.)

ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, 71, 725–734.

By: A. Rowe n & M. Rowe*

TL;DR: Assessment of the risks posed by prey that differ in their dangerousness found grasshopper mice made no distinctions among the prey in either the recognition or pursuit phases of the encounter, attacking crickets and both genera of scorpions with little hesitation. (via Semantic Scholar)

Aromatase cytochrome P450: Cloning, intron variation, and ontogeny of gene expression in southern flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma)

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL ZOOLOGY PART A-ECOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATIVE PHYSIOLOGY, 303A(8), 643–656.

By: J. Luckenbach n, L. Early n, A. Rowe n, R. Borski n, H. Daniels n & J. Godwin n

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Aromatase / chemistry; Aromatase / genetics; Aromatase / metabolism; Base Sequence; Cloning, Molecular; Female; Flounder / genetics; Flounder / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Developmental / physiology; Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic; Genetic Variation; Introns / genetics; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Phylogeny; RNA, Messenger; Tissue Distribution
TL;DR: Gonadal histology confirmed predictions of sex based on P450arom expression in juvenile flounder, demonstrating that the patterns of P450Arom expression observed relate to sex-specific differentiation. (via Semantic Scholar)
