Phylogeography and Pleistocene demographic history of the endangered marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) from the Rio de la Plata Basin
(Springer, 2006-01-01)
The marsh deer is the largest neotropical cervid with morphological and ecological adaptations to wetlands and riparian habitats. Historically, this now endangered species occupied habitats along the major river basins in ...

Conservation of the largest cervid of South America: interactions between people and the Vulnerable marsh deer Blastocerus dichotomus
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-07)
Wild ungulates, and particularly deer, can cause severe damage to commercial plantations, resulting in reduced tolerance of their presence by forestry producers. The marsh deer Blastocerus dichotomus, categorized as ...
A PCR/RFLP methodology to identify non-Amazonian Brazilian deer species
(2013-09-01)
Due to the necessity of using noninvasive samples to study animals as elusive as the deer that occur in Brazil, we realized it was important to develop a PCR/RFLP protocol to assist in identifying such samples. Thus we ...
Different responses to doxorubicin-induced chromosome aberrations in Brazilian deer species
(Funpec-editora, 2010-01-01)
The tendency toward chromosome fragility is one of the theories that may explain chromosome variation in brocket deer species (genus Mazama). We tested doxorubicin as an inducer of chromosome aberrations in lymphocytes of ...

Are Brazilian cervids at risk of prion diseases?
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2017-01-01)
Prion diseases are neurodegenerative fatal disorders that affect human and non-human mammals. Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) is a prion disease of cervids regarded as a public health problem in North America, and polymorphisms ...
Isotopic values of diet of Blastocerus dichotomus (marsh deer) in Paraná Basin, South America
(Elsevier, 2013-02)
The marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus, Illiger, 1815) is the largest contemporary South American deer, and its habitat includes the floodplains and wetlands of eastern South America. Throughout the Holocene these deer ...
