Mating systems cryptically living mammals with a focus on underground mammals
ŠOLCOVÁ, Lucie
Mating systems describe how are animals paired and with how many sexual partners reproduce. In my study, I have reviewed different mating systems in vertebrates and methods how to assess mating systems in mammals. I focused mainly on genetic methods, because they provide the most reliable tool in assessing mating systems of a particular species. Special interest is devoted to mating systems of mammals with cryptic activity such as subterranean rodents. I also tested the methodology of microsatellite analysis for further study on genetic relationships across the population and mating system of the blind mole rat (Spalax galili) from Israel.
Factors which are influencing circadian activity of subterranean rodents.
RÝPALOVÁ, Kateřina
Circadian clocks are found in organisms from bacteria to mammals. Research of circadian activity patterns in subterranean rodents signify light as zeitgeber. However, recent studies indicate that at least some subterranean rodent´s circadian clock could be synchronized by soil temperature. In my bachelor thesis I reviewed literature on circadian activity patterns of the subterranean rodents.
