Turtles have the most unusual body plan of the amniotes, with a dorsal shell consisting of modified ribs. Because this morphological change in the ribs can be described as an axial-level specific alteration, the evolution of the turtle carapace should depend on changes in the Hox code. To identify t

This study aimed to determine effects of 6-day progressive increase in salinity from 1% to 15% on nitrogen metabolism and excretion in the soft-shelled turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis. For turtles exposed to 15% water on day 6, the plasma osmolality and concentrations of Na 1 , Cl Γ€ and urea increased s
