'Yamini Donekal' 'Hunter C. Meyers' 'Chiron W. Graves' 'Hannah S. Seidel' '' 'Xiaolin Bi'] Color morphs in ball pythons (Python regius) provide a unique and largely untapped resource for understanding the genetics of coloration in reptiles. Here we use a community-science approach to investigate the genetics of three…

'Chiron W Graves' 'Hannah S Seidel' '' 'M Arbeitman'] Title: Abstract Color patterns in nonavian reptiles are beautifully diverse, but little is known about the genetics and development of these patterns. Here, we investigated color patterning in pet ball pythons (Python regius), which have been bred to show color…

'Sung Bin Lee' 'Jeong Woo Kang' 'Won Joon Jung' 'Sib Sankar Giri' 'Kyunglee Lee' 'Se Chang Park' 'Erik Teske'] A two-year-old ball python with a submandibular mass was evaluated. Fine needle aspiration resulted in debris containing purulent materials and bacterial cells on cytology. Radiography demonstrated multi-focal…

'Marco Torcello' 'Michela Ablondi' 'Mariagiulia Pugliano' 'Susanna Di Mauro' 'Pietro Parma' 'Francesca Ciotola' 'Tingxian Deng'] Parthenogenesis is an asexual form of reproduction, normally present in various animal and plant species, in which an embryo is generated from a single gamete. Currently, there are some…

Reptilian species, particularly snakes and lizards, are emerging models of animal coloration. Here, I focus on the role of the TFEC transcription factor in snake and lizard coloration based on a study on wild-type and piebald ball pythons. Genomic mapping previously identified a TFEC mutation linked to the piebald ball…

'Rachel E. Marschang' 'Clive J. C. Phillips'] Simple Summary Paramyxoviruses in the genus Ferlavirus are well-documented pathogens in snakes. Disease severity appears to depend on multiple factors which are not fully understood. In order to further understand the role of host species in ferlaviral infection and…

Title: Simple Summary Hyperuricemia, defined as an abnormal increase in blood uric acid concentrations, is a frequently encountered disorder in captive reptiles and can lead to gout and kidney disease. Treatment options are limited, and some currently available drugs have uncertain efficacy or may be associated with…

'Jillian M. Josimovich' 'Austin L. Fitzgerald' 'Christina M. Romagosa' 'Amy A. Yackel Adams'] Title: Abstract We describe several photo-documented novel interactions between intraguild predators in southern Florida-the native bobcat (Lynx rufus) and the invasive Burmese python (Python bivittatus). Over several days we…

'G. J. Alexander' 'R. Shine' 'T. Coulson'] Diminishing natural resources and increasing climatic volatility are impacting agri-food systems, prompting the need for sustainable and resilient alternatives. Python farming is well established in Asia but has received little attention from mainstream agricultural…
