- Assessing Potential Reservoir of Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria in the Oral Microbiota of Captive Burmese and Royal Pythons.
Marques I, Pinto AR, Martins JJ et al. · Life (Basel, Switzerland) · 2025-03 · open access
The oral microbiota has a diversity of microorganisms that together maintain the homeostasis of the oral cavity. Disruptions in the balance of these microbial populations can lead to the development of oral and dental diseases. To characterize the normal oral microbiota of captive ophidians,…
- Significant genetic differentiation between native and introduced farmed Burmese pythons and low risk of genetic introgression from escaped farmed individuals in Hainan Island
Jiao Qing, Xiaofei Zhai, Shaopeng Yu et al. · Conservation Science and Practice · 2025-02 · open access
Abstract The Burmese python ( Python bivittatus ) is one of the most endangered pythons and is commonly traded in the international pet industry. In addition to wild P. bivittatus , domesticated individuals from farms have been living on Hainan Island for nearly 20 years. The intentional release or…

Miller MA, Bloch M, Balaguera-Reina SA et al. · Ecology and evolution · 2024-11 · open access
Florida, USA is a hotspot of biological invasions with over 500 non-native species reported. Reptiles encompass most of the non-native wildlife with over 50 species established, many of which are sympatric and are identified as invasive due to their impacts to the environment, economy, and human…

Natusch D, Aust PW, Caraguel C et al. · Scientific reports · 2024-03 · open access
Diminishing natural resources and increasing climatic volatility are impacting agri-food systems, prompting the need for sustainable and resilient alternatives. Python farming is well established in Asia but has received little attention from mainstream agricultural scientists. We measured growth…
