Bats

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Oxidation of linoleic and palmitic acid in pre-hibernating and hibernating common noctule bats revealed by 13C breath testing
    Elisabeth Rosner, Christian C. Voigt
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb168096 doi: 10.1242/jeb.168096 Published 19 February 2018

    Summary: Pre-hibernating and hibernating noctule bats oxidize linoleic acid instead of palmitic acid, probably because of faster transportation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the body of bats.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Modification of sperm quality after sexual abstinence in Seba's short-tailed bat, Carollia perspicillata
    Charlotte Wesseling, Nicolas Fasel, Heinz Richner, Fabrice Helfenstein
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 1363-1368; doi: 10.1242/jeb.133843

    Highlighted Article: A sexual abstinence experiment suggests that a difference in copulation frequency rather than an adaption to sperm competition provides Carollia perspicillata sneaker males with higher sperm quality than harem males.
