Globally, an increase in the transportation and expansion of the pet market is the most important cause of the invasion of non-native species. Invasion of non-native species disturbs native ecosystems and leads to socio-economic problems. The pet trade involving turtles has been globally recognized…

- Developmental plasticity of cardiac anoxia-tolerance in juvenile common snapping turtles ( Chelydra serpentina).
Ruhr IM, McCourty H, Bajjig A et al. · Proceedings. Biological sciences · 2019-06 · open access
For some species of ectothermic vertebrates, early exposure to hypoxia during embryonic development improves hypoxia-tolerance later in life. However, the cellular mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are largely unknown. Given that hypoxic survival is critically dependent on the maintenance of…
- Different mechanisms of serum complement activation in the plasma of common (Chelydra serpentina) and alligator (Macrochelys temminckii) snapping turtles.
Baker S, Kessler E, Darville-Bowleg L et al. · PloS one · 2019-06 · open access
Reptiles are declining worldwide yet our understanding of their immune function lags far behind other taxa. The innate immune system is the primary mode of defense in reptiles, and the serum complement cascade is its major component. We assessed serum complement activity of plasma in two closely…
