Mutation of the zebrafish choroideremia gene encoding Rab escort protein 1 devastates hair cells.

abstract：:We use stable isotope ratios in feces of wild mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei) to test the hypothesis that diet shifts within a single year, as measured by dry mass intake, can be recovered. Isotopic separation of staple foods indicates that intraannual changes in the isotopic composition of feces reflect shifts i...
