Conclusions
1- Members of the Sciuridae first appear in North America during the early Oligocene.
2- By the mid-Oligocene, sciurids are found in Europe and North America and both ground squirrels and tree squirrels had evolved by the late Oligocene.
3- Probably as a result of differing depositional environments, the European squirrel record is dominated by flying squirrel remains, while that in Nort America shows a predominance of terrestriel squirrel types.
4- One, and possibly, two lineages of terrestrial squirrels entered Europe from North America in the teriary but each became extinct.
5- Modern ground squirrels, genus Spermophilus, and marmots, genus Marmota, entered Eurasia in the latest Pliocene or early Pleistocene from North America.
6- Chipmunks, genus Tamias, entered Asia from North America in the middle Pliocene. One or two lines may have reinvaded Noth America in the early Pleistocene or chipmunks may have evolved independently in the Nearctic and Palearctic since mid-Pliocen time.
7- Tree squirrels, genus Sciurus, sensu latissimo, are known in both North America and Eurasia since the Miocene. The center of orgin for modern Sciurus is unknown.
8- North America has been the center of terrestrial squirrel radiation since the origin of the family.

Approximately 150 different species of animal furs are presently produced by the fur industry. Insufficient supplies of certain types of skin, and the increased cost of rare skins, have compelled fur manufacturers to change the colour, thickness, hair shape, and other such properties of cheaper skins, and to perfect imitations of rare skin types. It has therefore become increasingly important for people in the fur trade to be able to identify the products in microscopic detail. Such identification is also necessary for archaeologists, zoologists and criminologists. Microscopy is a commonly available method, but when trying to use this technique for identification of an unknown sample, it is necessary to compare microscopic features with those of a great number of species having similar patterns. The primary objective of this book is to fill a gap in the available reference material by presenting an exact description and proper illustrations of a wide range of skin species. Secondly, it aims to complete the fur microscopic pattern classification with newly recognised types, together with the adaptation of the nomenclature to the microstructures observed by modern electromicroscopic techniques. The book contains a wide collection of microphotographic figures and the numerical codes for the microscopic structures of fur. This first volume covers approximately one half of the range of important skin species. The remaining skin species will appear in a second volume. This book will be invaluable to animal fur breeders, veterinary specialists, fur manufacturers, zoologists, archaeologists, and criminologists.

En anglais, in English.
A novel strategy for anti-viral intervention of hepatitis B virus (HBV) through the disruption of the proper folding and transport of the hepadnavirus glycoproteins is described. Laboratory reared woodchucks chronically infected with woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) were treated with N-nonyl-deoxynojirimycin (N-nonyl-DNJ), an inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) alpha-glucosidases. The woodchucks experienced significant dose dependent decreases in enveloped WHV, resulting in undetectable amounts in some cases. The reduction in viremia correlated with the levels of hyperglucosylated glycan in the serum of treated animals. This correlation supports the mechanism of action associated with the drug and highlights the extreme sensitivity of the virus to this type of glycan inhibitor. At N-nonyl-DNJ concentrations that prevented WHV secretion, the glycosylation of most serum glycoproteins appeared unaffected, suggesting great selectivity for this class of therapeutics. Indeed, this may account for the low toxicity of the compound over the treatment period. We provide the first evidence that glucosidase inhibitors can be used in vivo to alter specific steps in the N-linked glycosylation pathway and that this inhibition has anti-viral effects.

Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) is associated with the majority of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The diagnosis of HCC is usually made in the late stages of the disease, when treatment options are limited and prognosis is poor. We therefore have developed a method of glycoproteomic analysis in an attempt to discover serum markers that can assist in the early detection of HBV-induced liver cancer. Briefly, a comparative method for analysis of oligosaccharides released from serum glycoproteins and for recovery and identification of proteins with aberrant glycosylation, as a function of cancer diagnosis, is described. The model we have used is the woodchuck (Marmota monax), which shares similarities in the glycosylation pattern associated with liver proteins in human HCC. In this report, we show that woodchucks diagnosed with HCC have dramatically higher levels of serum-associated core alpha-1,6-linked fucose, as compared with woodchucks without a diagnosis of HCC. The coupling of this methodology with 2D gel proteomics has permitted the identification of several glycoproteins with altered glycosylation as a function of cancer. One such glycoprotein, Golgi Protein 73 (GP73), was found to be elevated and hyperfucosylated in animals with HCC. Further, the study showed GP73 to be elevated in the serum of people with a diagnosis of HCC, providing a validation of our approach. The potential of this technology for biomarker discovery and the implications of increased levels of GP73 in liver cancer are discussed.

Borgo Antonio 1999. Selezione dell'habitat e modello di idoneità ambientale della Marmotta nel Parco Naturale Dolomiti Friulane. [Habitat requirements of two reintroduced populations of Alpine marmot (Marmota marmota) in Eastern Alps. A verify of the Ideal Free Distribution Theory]. IV Convegno Nazionale dei Biologi della Selvaggina. Nel presente lavoro sono state censite le tane invernali (N =33) e analizzate le preferenze ambientali della Marmotta in due popolazioni (A e B) reintrodotte nel Parco Naturale Dolomiti Friulane (Alpi orientali), rispettivamente nel 1977 e 1983. La popolazione A è caratterizzata da una più alta densità di nuclei rispetto alla popolazione B. Ciò è legato alla più giovane età della popolazione B, che appare ancora in una fase di espansione areale. Per lo scavo della tana invernale, la popolazione B seleziona positivamente (Indice di Jacobs) un minor numero di ambienti e classi di pendenza rispetto alla popolazione A, e in particolare quelli con selezione positiva più forte nella popolazione A: prateria primaria e secondaria con più del 30% della superficie coperta da massi. Mediante Analisi di funzione Discriminante e oneway ANOVA sono state studiate le caratteristiche dellintorno delle tane invernali, dividendo le due aree di studio in celle da 1 ettaro e definendo, in ognuna di esse, la presenza-assenza di tane. È stato quindi ottenuto un modello predittivo di valutazione ambientale. Le celle con tane sono risultate caratterizzate da una maggior abbondanza di ambienti prativi (primari e secondari) e di cespugliati aperti di Alnus viridis. La preferenza per le aree prative appare subordinata alla presenza di massi, specie nella prateria secondaria. Confrontando i risultati ottenuti per le due popolazioni, si osserva che la popolazione più giovane e a minore densità mostra preferenze ambientali e di pendenza più ristrette. Linsieme delle analisi sembra indicare che le preferenze ambientali della Marmotta seguono, in accordo con quanto previsto dalla teoria della Ideal Free Distribution, unevoluzione densità dipendente, in base alla quale laumento della densità spinge la specie a sfruttare una maggior gamma di ambienti. Alla luce di questa teoria, è quindi possibile cominciare ad individuare una "graduatoria " nelle preferenze ambientali della specie, considerando ottimali per la Marmotta gli ambienti e le pendenze preferiti e selezionati dalla popolazione a minore densità. The habitat preferences of the Marmot were analysed in two populations (A and B) reintroduced in the Dolomiti Friulane National Park (Oriental Alps, Friuli-Venezia Giulia region), in 1977 and 1983 respectively. Population A presents a higher density of family units, as population B is younger and still spreading. For the research, winter burrows were counted and mapped (N=33). Population B positively selects, for burrowing, fewer types of habitat than population A (Jacobs index), and especially those who are more strongly selected by population A: prairie and pasture-land (secondary prairie), with rocks covering more than 30% of the area. Through Stepwise Discriminant Function Analysis and Oneway ANOVA, we studied the characteristics of the winter burrows surroundings, by splitting up the two study areas into squares 1 hectare wide, and surveying the presence or absence of winter burrows in each plot; thus, an environmental suitability model was obtained. The squares with burrows (N=33) are characterised by a greater abundance of meadow-lands (both primary and secondary), and of open bushes of Alnus viridis. The preference for the meadow-lands appears, though, to be subordinate to the presence of rocks, especially in the secondary prairie (pasture-land). Comparing the results obtained separately for the two populations, the younger population with a lower density shows to have more restrictive habitat and incline preferences. The analysis on the whole show that the habitat preferences of the Marmot change, in accordance with the Ideal Free Distribution theory, in connection with the population density: an increase in the density would lead the species to exploit a broader range of habitats. According to this theory, it is possible to identify a "classification" of the habitat preferences of the species, considering as optimal the habitats and inclines chosen by population at a lower density.

Vancouver Island marmots (M. vancouverensis) rank among the world's most critically endangered mammals. There were probably fewer than 100 marmots in 1998, with 90% distributed south of Alberni Inlet, and the remainder on or near Mount Washington. This represents a 60-70% decline in numbers during the past 10 years, and a considerably reduced geographic range during the past several decades.

Many species produce specific alarm vocalizations when they encounter
predators.There is considerable interest in the degree to which bird,
ground-dwelling sciurid rodent, and primate alarm calls denote the species
or type of predator that elicited the vocalization. When there is tight asso-
ciation between the type or species of predator eliciting an alarm call, and
when played-back alarm call elicits antipredator responses qualitatively
similar to those seen when individuals personally encounter predator, the
alarm calls are said to be functionally referential. In this essay I aim to make
two simple points about the evolution of functionally referential alarm
communication. Firstly, functionally referential communication is likely to
be present only when species produces acoustically distinct alarm vocaliza-
tions. Thus, to understand its evolution we must study factors that in fluence
the evolution of alarm call repertoire size. Secondly, and potentially de-
coupled from the ability to produce coustically distinctive alarm vocaliza-
tions, species must have the perceptual and motor abilities to respond differ-
ently to acoustically-distinct alarm vocalizations. Thus, to understand the
evolution of functionally referential communication we also must study
factors that influence the evolution of context-independent perception.
While some factors may select for functionally referential alarm communica-
tion, constraints on production or perception may prevent its evolution.

Deux hypothèses, non exclusives, peuvent expliquer l'évolution de la complexité de la communication. Elle peut, d’abord, coévoluer avec la complexité sociale car elle pourrait profiter aux espèces les plus sociales. Ensuite, cette évolution peut être contrainte par le milieu acoustique, car les signaux, fortement atténués et dégradés lors de la transmission dans le milieu, ne peuvent pas être interprétés correctement. À l’aide des phylogénies récentes, j'ai testé l'importance relative des deux hypothèses dans l'évolution de la communication d'alarme chez les marmottes. Le nombre de cris d'alarme produits par une espèce varie entre espèces voisines, suggérant un potentiel d'adaptation coévolutif. Les résultats suggèrent que la complexité sociale, et non le milieu acoustique, soit responsable de l'évolution de la complexité de la communication chez les marmottes. Ils confirment d'autres découvertes récentes, et suggèrent que l'importance du milieu acoustique dans l'évolution de la communication devrait être ré-éxaminée.

Isolation from predators affects prey behavior, morphology, and life history, but there is tremendous variation in the time course of these responses. Previous hypotheses to explain this variation have limited predictive ability. I develop a ‘multipredator’ hypothesis to explain the evolutionary persistence of antipredator behavior after the loss of some, but not all, of a species’ predators. The hypothesis assumes pleiotropy, whereby elements of antipredator behavior may function in non-predatory situations, and linkage, such that genes influencing the expression of antipredator behavior do not assort independently. The hypothesis is restricted to species with multiple predators (most species) and aims to predict the conditions under which antipredator behavior will persist following the loss of one or more of a species’ predators. I acknowledge that the relative costs of non-functional antipredator behavior will influence the likelihood of linkage and therefore persistence. The hypothesis makes two main predictions. First, genes responsible for antipredator behavior will not be scattered throughout the genome but rather may be found close together on the same chromosome(s). Secondly, the presence of any predators may be sufficient to maintain antipredator behavior for missing predators. Advances in behavioral genetics will allow tests of the first prediction, while studies of geographic variation in antipredator behavior provide some support for the second.

We examined life-history consequences of increased social complexity in ground-dwelling scuirids rodents. We derived a continuous metric of social complexity from demographic data. Social complexity increased with the number of age-sex "roles" that interacted in a social group. Data were analyzed by computing phylogenetically independant contrasts and by using phylogenetic autocorrelation to estimate and then remove the maximum amount of variation in life-history variables that could be attributed to phylogenetic similarity. Analyses that incorporates estimates of phylogeny generated consistent results. As social complexity increased, a smaller proportion of adult females bred, there was a greater time to first reproduction, litter size decreased, and there was greater first-year offspring survival. Social complexity influenced neither gestation nor lactation time. Thus, social complexity has costs in terms of a reduction in the annual per-capita number of offspring produced but benefits in terms of enhanced offspring survival.

We developed a virtual world to study the effect of predators on predator recognition. We trained a neural network to discriminate between the shapes of simulated aerial and terrestrial predators and non-predators. Then, the network’s weighting values were fixed into the genomes of a set of autonomous agents. These animats were required to eat, avoid death due to starvation, and avoid predation, by fleeing from approaching predators. We systematically varied the predator’s lethality, the mutation rate, the cost of fleeing a predator, and the presence or absence of aerial and terrestrial predators. We used ANOVA to analyse the average recognition ability (a measure of directional selection) and the standard deviation of recognition ability (a measure of relaxed selection) after 500 generations of selection. Mutation rate and the cost of flight had the greatest effect on both the average and standard deviation of recognition abilities. The loss of all predators relaxed selection on predator recognition abilities. The loss of specific predators had complex effects on recognition abilities. Persistence is largely influenced by escape costs.

Evolutionary isolation from predators can profoundly influence the morphology, physiology, and behavior of prey, but little is known about how species respond to the loss of only some of their predators. We studied antipredator behavior of a wallaby and a kangaroo on an island, where they have been isolated from mammalian predators for several thousand years but remain vulnerable to aerial predators, and on the mainland, where both species have been exposed continuously to mammalian and avian predators. At both locations, wallabies modified the amount of time they allocated to vigilance and foraging in response to group size, whereas kangaroos did so only at the higher-risk mainland site. Both species modified overall time budgets and space use patterns, but wallabies were closer to cover at the mainland site, while kangaroos were, on average, farther from cover. The presence of a single predator may affect the way a species responds to the loss of other predators by maintaining certain antipredator behaviors. Such an effect of the 'ghost of predators past' may be expected as long as species encounter some predators.

Unlike individually distinctive territorial calls, contact calls, or calls that aid in the recognition of young by their parents, the function or functions of individually distinctive alarm calls (vocalizations produced in response to predators) is not immediately apparent. Yellow-bellied marmots, Marmota flaviventris, grounddwelling sciurid rodents, produce individually distinctive alarm calls. Using an habituation-recovery playback protocol, we show that marmots can perceive differences between the calls of different adult females. We further show that marmots are able to discriminate between at least one broad age-sex category. In contrast to what has been reported in other species, playback of calls from juveniles elicited a greater response (i.e. marmots increased vigilance and suppressed foraging) than did playback of calls from adult females. No other age-sex category led to responses significantly different from adult females. Future studies will seek to understand why individual discriminative abilities exist, but we have shown that individuals are able to identify when young, and presumably vulnerable, marmots are calling, and to respond by engaging in vigilance.

La survie des marmottes dorées a été étudiée, entre 1988 et 1993, dans le Parc National de Khunfjerah au Pakistan. La mortalité au cours de la première année est élevée pour les deux sexes, puis se stabilise. La survie des marmottes dorées a été comparée à celles d’autres espèces très sociale (M. vancouverensis et M. olympus), ainsi qu’à celle d’une autre espèce moins sociale (M. flaviventris). Comme les autres marmottes à niveau de socialité élevé, les marmottes dorées ont une survie annuelle relativement élevée, ce qui fournit un appui supplémentaire à l’hypothèse selon laquelle une meilleure socialité accroît la survie.

Behavioral comparisons between endangered species and their congeners may provide valuable data with which to test ideas about declining populations or the future direction of recovery efforts. We considered the case of the highly endangered Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis). Predation is a current source of mortality, and inadequate anti-predator behavior could have profound ramifications for the future success of re-introductions. We tested whether M. vancouverensis anti-predator behavior was unusual or 'deficient' by quantifying it and comparing it to 13 other marmot species. We found no evidence that Vancouver Island marmots were unwary. If anything, the converse was true. Vancouver Island marmots were responsive and vigilant towards real and simulated predatory threats. They dug numerous escape burrows that reduced the likelihood of predation. Our results have several implications for future recovery efforts, one of which was to establish 'baseline' flight-response targets that captive-bred Vancouver Island marmots will have to meet or exceed prior to release into predator-rich environments.

We have developed, and freely distribute, JWatcher: an event-recording and focal data analysis program. JWatcher is written entirely in Java and consequently runs on any modern microcomputer, regardless of operating system. Our philosophy is that users should only need to score behavior once. Flexible data post-processing allows a wide variety of analyses, all based upon the same original data file. These can consider a subset of key codes, or explore patterns of behavior using different time windows. Both event (frequency) and state (duration) descriptive statistics are available. A batch-processing mode permits efficient analysis of large numbers of observation data files. Errorchecking functions are built into the analysis algorithms. It is straightforward to export data and results to spreadsheet and statistics programs for further processing. Versions of JWatcher for Mac and PC, together with a 33 page manual, can be downloaded from the web site.

Fewer than 35 Vancouver Island marmots (Marmota vancouverensis) remain in the wild and captive breeding program has begun. Predation has been implicated in the initial population decline and in the loss of 4 of 13 reintroduced marmots. To identify whether predator discrimination abilities are lost in captivity, we presented wild-caught and captive born marmots with taxidermic mounts of predators (a cougar Felis concolor and wolf Canis lupus) together with control stimuli (marmot, domestic goat Capra aegagrus (=hircus), the cart on which all stimuli were presented, and a • blank ™ no-stimulus control. Because overall • personality ™ may be associated with response to predators, we also conducted a mirror-image stimulus (MIS) presentation experiment where marmots were video-recorded with or without the presence of a wolf. Marmots discriminated among these stimuli, responding the most to the wolf and cougar. The MIS results suggest that marmots varied along a continuum of reactivity. The amount of reactivity was unaffected by the presence of a wolf, and was correlated with our highest level of responsiveness (vigilance at the burrow and time within burrow) to the wolf. Taken together, we conclude that marmots differentiate predators from non-predators and that this ability has not been lost under the conditions that they have been reared.

A major impediment to recovering declining populations successfully is the mortality of reintroduced or translocated animals. We generally assume that captive-born animals may lose their antipredator behaviour abilities in captivity, but studies rarely compare predator recognition abilities of captive-born and wildcaptured animals to test this. To identify whether predator discrimination abilities of the critically endangered Vancouver Island marmots Marmota vancouverensis were lost in captivity, we presented wild-captured and captive-born marmots with taxidermic mounts of predators (a cougar Felis concolor and wolf Canis lupus) together with control stimuli (marmot, domestic goat Capra aegagrus, the cart on which all stimuli were presented and a ‘blank’ no-stimulus control). Regardless of specific predator discrimination abilities, for some species overall ‘personality’ may be associated with response to predators and subsequent survival. Thus, to quantify overall reactivity in the presence of a predator, we also conducted a mirror-image stimulus (MIS) presentation experiment where marmots were videorecorded with or without the presence of a wolf. Marmots discriminated among these stimuli, responding the most to the wolf and cougar. The MIS results suggest that marmots varied along a continuum of reactivity. The amount of reactivity was unaffected by the presence of a wolf, and was correlated with our highest level of responsiveness (vigilance at the burrow and time within the burrow) to the wolf. Taken together, we conclude that marmots differentiate predators from nonpredators and that this ability has not been lost under the conditions in which they have been reared.

En anglais, in English.
Of 14 species of marmots (genus Marmota, Family Sciuridae), only 2, the woodchuck (M. monax) and yellow-bellied marmot (M. flaviventris), have not been reported to be obligate social hibernators. There is one published report of yellow-bellied marmot juveniles hibernating together at a subalpine site, and social hibernation was reported at a single high-alpine site. Solitary hibernation is expected in woodchucks because they do not share burrows during summer, but is unexpected in yellow-bellied marmots, a harem-polygynous species where females may share burrows and have extensive home-range overlap with female kin during summer. We documented emergence patterns in 13 matrilines to determine whether adult marmots hibernate socially. We found that adult males hibernated with 1 or more adult females, and mothers hibernated with their offspring. Therefore, we conclude that yellow-bellied marmots hibernate socially. There is, however, no evidence that suggests that yellow-bellied marmots receive social thermoregulatory benefits from social hibernation. Documenting social hibernation required us to quantify patterns of emergence from hibernation. Throughout our subalpine site, emergence appears to be getting earlier; a result consistent with a previous report based on 1 colony site and which suggests the effects of global climate change are affecting hibernation patterns.

Individuals produce distinctive vocalizations that may contain considerable potential information about a signaller. Simply finding significant covariation between call structure and some individual attribute does not itself mean that there has been selection on callers to produce individually distinctive calls, nor on receivers to discriminate between them. Moreover, acoustic variation may degrade while being transmitted through the environment, making it potentially difficult for receivers to extract potential information. We focused on the individually distinctive calls of yellow-bellied marmots, Marmota flaviventris, to describe attributes of individuals encoded in calls. Using discriminant function analysis, we found significant potential information about identity, age and sex encoded in calls. When calls were broadcast and rerecorded over 10 m and 40 m, identity, age and sex remained statistically discriminatable. Key variables that enabled discrimination were repeatable (they had high intraclass correlation coefficients), whereas those that did not enable discrimination were less repeatable. Finally, statistics developed to describe, in a standardized and comparative way, the information about individual signallers contained in vocalizations, revealed that marmot alarm calls contained at least 3.37 bits of information about identity. When compared to other species for which the information content of signals has been calculated, marmots may have not undergone strong selection for individually distinctive vocalizations. The fact that receivers discriminate between individuals suggests that receivers benefit by doing so.

Habitat selection may have population level consequences and ultimately may influence a population’s local persistence or extinction. We capitalized on a longterm study (1962-2004) of yellow-bellied marmots Marmota flaviventris in and around the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory, Gothic, Colorado, USA, and compared habitat characteristics associated with food availability and predation risk to explain variation in persistence of marmots at 27 sites, and their absence at 22 additional, randomly selected sites. We classified sites as persistent, intermittent or null based on whether there was a history of extinction; intermittent sites periodically went extinct and null sites never had marmots. Logistic regression analyses revealed that environmental variables associated with visibility and safety, rather than food, correctly classified sites as persistent or non-persistent as well as persistent or intermittent. Discriminant function analysis that included the null sites revealed that the same visibility-related characteristics predicted where marmots were found. These results highlight the importance of variation in safety among sites in predicting long-term population persistence, as well as a species’ distribution.

When individuals of a variety of species encounter a potential predator, some, but not all, emit alarm calls. To explain the proximate basis of this variation, we compared faecal glucocorticoid metabolite concentrations in live-trapped yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris) between occasions when they did and did not emit alarm calls. We found that marmots had significantly higher glucocorticoid levels when they called than when they did not call, suggesting that stress or arousal may play an important role in potentiating alarm calls. Marmots are sensitive to variation in the reliability of callers. The present finding provides one possible mechanism underlying caller variation: physiological arousal influences the propensity to emit alarm calls.

Many species use refugia to avoid predators, but remaining in a refuge is costly because foraging and engaging in other beneficial activities are curtailed while in a refuge. Thus, we expect that the duration of refuge use will be optimized. We tested a key prediction of this optimization hypothesis in yellow-bellied marmots, Marmota flaviventris (Audubon and Bachman, 1841), by providing supplemental food next to their burrows to manipulate the costs of remaining in a refuge. We then systematically walked towards a subject that was foraging on supplementary food or a subject that was not foraging on supplementary food until the individual disappeared into its burrow. We found a significant effect of our feeding treatment; subjects with supplementary food emerged from their burrows sooner than those without it. We also found a complex interaction between our feeding treatment and immergence distance (i.e., the distance subjects were at when they disappeared into their burrows). Individuals that tolerated close approaches emerged sooner when food was present, while those that were intolerant of approaching humans took longer to emerge and emerged sooner when food was not present. Juveniles emerged significantly sooner than adults, while there was no detectable difference between emergence times for adults and yearlings. This is the first demonstration in a mammal that hiding time is sensitive to the cost of remaining in the burrow. A number of previous studies on hiding times have focused on ectothermic species. More generally, our results suggest that endotherms are also likely to optimize the time that they remain in a refuge.
De nombreuses espèces animales échappent à leurs prédateurs en s’abritant dans un terrier. Cependant, cela ne va pas sans coût, car tant que l’animal reste réfugié, toute activité profitable, comme la recherche de nourriture, est suspendue. Par conséquent, une optimisation de la durée pendant laquelle l’animal se cache serait à prévoir. Nous avons testé cette hypothèse sur les marmottes à ventre jaune, Marmota flaviventris (Audubon et Bachman, 1841). Pour cela, nous avons manipulé les coûts reliés au fait de rester réfugié, en apportant de la nourriture supplémentaire près de l’entrée du terrier. Un expérimentateur a ensuite systématiquement marché en direction soit d’un sujet consommant les apports de nourriture, soit d’un individu occupé à d’autres activités, jusqu’à ce que l’animal disparaisse dans son terrier. Les résultats montrent un effet significatif de notre traitement alimentaire: les sujets en présence de nourriture supplémentaire ressortent plus vite de leur terrier que ceux qui n’en ont pas eue. Nous avons, de plus, trouvé une interaction complexe entre le traitement alimentaire et la distance de « perte de vue » (c’est-à-dire la distance entre l’expérimentateur et le sujet au moment où ce dernier disparaît dans son refuge). Les individus tolérant une distance faible entre l’expérimentateur et eux-mêmes ressortent plus vite en présence de surplus de nourriture. Les sujets intolérants mettent globalement plus de temps à réapparaître et ressortent plus vite quand il n’y a pas de surplus de nourriture. Les jeunes de l’année émergent significativement plus tôt que les adultes et les jeunes de 1 an qui mettent un temps semblable à émerger. Notre expérience constitue la première démonstration chez un mammifère que le temps passé à se cacher est soumis aux coûts du retrait dans un terrier. Un certain nombre d’études précédentes sur le temps passé dans un refuge concernent les espèces ectothermes. Nos résultats laissent croire plus généralement qu’il est aussi probable que les endothermes optimisent leur temps dans les refuges.

Animals employ a variety of behaviors to reduce or manage predation risk. Often, these are studied in isolation, but selection may act on packages of behavior that are referred to as behavioral syndromes. We focused on yellowbellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris) and examined three commonly studied antipredator behaviors. We fitted general linear models to explain variation in maximum running speed, time allocated to vigilance and foraging during bouts of foraging, and flight initiation distance (FID). Marmot maximum running speed was influenced by the substrate run across; marmots ran fastest across dirt or low vegetation and slowest across stones or talus. Incline and several other variables shown to affect running speed in other marmot species failed to explain significant variation in yellow-bellied marmots. From these results we expected marmots to be sensitive to substrate while foraging, but insensitive to incline. However, time allocated to foraging was affected by incline but not by substrate. In bouts of foraging observed in different habitats, and on different inclines, more time was allocated to foraging and less to vigilance on steep slopes and less on level ground. Substrate influenced FID. Marmots in tall vegetation were less tolerant of an approaching person than were those in shorter vegetation. Finally, we found significant correlations between the residuals from the maximum running speed model and the residuals from the time allocated to vigilance and foraging models. We found a tendency for marmots that ran slower than predicted to be less vigilant while foraging. We also found that relatively slow marmots engaged in more active foraging and less vigilance during foraging bouts. This finding suggests a locomotor abilitywariness while foraging syndrome. It also suggests that vulnerable individuals minimize their exposure while foraging.

Unlike individually-distinctive contact calls, or calls that aid in the recognition of young by their parents, the function or functions of individually-distinctive alarm calls is less obvious. We conducted three experiments to study the importance of caller reliability in explaining individual-discriminative abilities in the alarm calls of yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris). In our first two experiments, we found that calls from less reliable individuals and calls from individuals calling from a greater simulated distance were more evocative than calls from reliable individuals or nearby callers. These results
are consistent with the hypothesis that marmots assess the reliability of callers to help them decide how much time to allocate to independent vigilance. The third experiment demonstrated that the number of callers influenced responsiveness, probably because situations where more than a single caller calls are those when there is certain to be a predator present. Taken together, the results from all three experiments demonstrate the importance of reliability in explaining individual discrimination abilities in yellow-bellied marmots. Marmots assessment of reliability acts by influencing the time
allocated to individual assessment and thus the time not allocated to other activities.

M. c. camtschatica, M. c. bungei and M. c. doppelmayeri subspecies have differences in morphology, immunogenetics and in sound signalization. However they have identical karyotypes (2n=40, NFa=62). We investigated differential staining of chromosomes of M. c. bungei and M. c. doppelmayeri and metrical and non-metrical characteristics of skulls of all subspecies of the marmot and features of their fur colour. C-banding of the chromosomes shows low quantity of C-heterochromatin. Ag-Nor-staining revealed polymorphism in number and localization of NORs in their chromosomes. Morphological data confirmed V. Kapitonov (1978) opinion on the presence of significant differences between M. c. camtschatica and M. c. doppelmayeri. Besides, we found differences in shapes of incisive and choana foramen between these subspecies. By a number of features, M. c. bungei occupy an intermediate position between them. A heterogeneity of M. c. bungei is revealed : the skulls of Kharaulakh marmots are larger than those of Verkhoyansk ones. A divergence level between M. c. camtschatica and M. c. bungei probably reaches the interspecific, and between Verkhoyansk and Kharaulakh marmots M. c. bungei it exceeds the interpopulational.

The morphological and immunogenetic parameters of three Marmota camtschatica subspecies were studied. The greatest differences in measurements and nonmetric skull characteristics were revealed between M. c. camtschatica and M. c. doppelmayri; in a number of cases, the variation ranges of these parameters did not overlap. M. c. bungei was intermediate between the latter two subspecies and, at the same time, heterogeneous. Immunogenetic tests revealed distinct differences between the three subspecies of the black-capped marmot and between two geographic forms of marmots from Yakutia. The results of this study and published data are evidence for a high divergence of the M. camtschatica forms; the extent to which the Kamchatka and Barguzin subspecies differ from each other in the entire set of parameters is comparable to the differences between separate species; the Yakut subspecies occupies the intermediate position. The black-capped marmot probably is a species in statu nascendi and shows a situation resembling the phenomenon of a circle of races (Ras-senkreise). Most likely, the black-capped marmots should be considered to be a superspecies M. camtschatica.

The excavation carried out in 1998 autumn along Caverna Generosa entrance gallery allowed to recover not only Ursus spelaeus rests, but also other mammals bones. These finds, in consideration of their stratigraphic position, are divided in three faunal associations. The older is constituted by Ursus spelaes, Rupicapra rupicapra, Capra ibex, Canis lupus, Marmota marmotta. The second by Alces alces, Capra ibex, Cervus elaphus, Marmota marmotta and Ursus spelacus. The first one, which is the youngest, consists of mammals that live today on the Generoso Mountain. The two ancient associations show climate change from cold dry and open situation lo cold and woody one. The lacking of direct dating does not permit to position with precision this event, but Ursus spelaeus
presence permits to consider that this climate change was happened in the Late Pleistocene.

Monthly activities of a population of alpine marmots (Marmota marmota), living in the Julian Pre-Alps (NE Italy), have been observed and analyzed in order to investigate external and internal factors that may influence their behaviour. Behavioural data have been collected for two consecutive years. Social organization and demography are also described. A summer trend in the distribution of activities is discussed. Among the external factors, meteorological conditions seem to play a major role. Turk and Arnold's (1988) hypothesis about the function of lying in alpine marmot is supported by our data. A hypothesis relating territory defence and probability of meeting dispersing individuals is formulated.

Available pdf disponibleA survey of the dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoidea) of Gran Paradiso National Park was done in1996-97. The insects were collected directly in the dung of wild and reared mammals or by automated pitfall traps. Altogether 28 sites were sampled, at altitudes ranging from 700 to 2800 m. Thirty species of Scarabaeoidea were collected, of which 27 inside the borders of the protected area and another 3 just outside of them, at low altitude sites.The dung beetle community was dominated by Aphodiidae (20 species), while Scarabaeidae and Geotrupidae were represented by 6 and 4 species respectively. Among the species found, we remark the presence of Aphodius pyrenaeus, a high altitude species typical of Alpine marmots burrows, and of Geotrupes mutator, whose distribution and population have strongly decreased in Europe.

La biologie des bousiers de la famille des Aphodiidae reste mal connue et les informations sur les espèces vivant dans des habitats extrêmes comme la haute montagne demeurent pratiquement inexistantes. De 1994 à 1999, nous avons étudié Aphodius pyrenaeus, un bousier de l'étage subnival dans les Alpes occidentales. L'espèce a été étudiée tant sur le terrain qu'en laboratoire. Elle vit à haute altitude (2 300-2 780 m) où elle choisit des microhabitats abrités, en particulier des latrines de la marmotte des Alpes Marmota marmota. Cela lui permet de débuter sa reproduction avant les autres bousiers qui coexistent avec elle. La densité de population est maximale en juillet. À partir de début août, de grands nombre de jeunes apparaissent et, au moins une partie d'entre eux, se reproduisent l'année même de leur émergence. Cela semble inhabituel chez les Aphodiidae, en particulier chez ceux qui vivent en altitude. La sélection de ressources varie en fonction de l'âge, du sexe et de la condition reproductrice des individus. Dans les laissées de bouquetins Capra ibex nous avons trouvé plus de mâles et moins de femelles que dans celles de marmottes. De plus, les femelles trouvées dans les excréments de bouquetins portaient moins d'oeufs que celles collectées dans les fèces de marmottes. Il apparaît que les excréments de bouquetins ne sont que des sources de nourriture occasionnelles alors que ceux des marmottes sont également utilisées pour la ponte. En laboratoire, nous avons observé que les fèces de marmottes ne sont préférées à celles de bouquetins que quand elles sont fraîches. Les selles plus anciennes, déjà visitées par d'autres insectes, sont délaissées. La ponte se fait dans des terriers, profonds d'environ 2,5 cm creusés par la femelle. Ces terriers protègent probablement les oeufs des dommages physiques que pourrait engendrer la forte densité des coléoptères qui vivent dans les excréments. Les femelles préparent ces terriers en 2-3 jours, sans l'aide des mâles. Après éclosion, les larves creusent parfois leurs propres terriers pour s'abirter.
The biology of the dung beetles of the family Aphodiidae is poorly known, and information on the species living in extreme habitats, such as the high mountains, is almost non-existent. From 1994 to 1999 we studied Aphodius pyrenaeus, a dung beetle of subnival habitats in the western Alps. The species was studied both in the field and in the laboratory, A. pyrenaeus lives at high altitudes (2 300-2 780 m), where it selects sheltered microhabitats, especially latrines of Alpine marmot Marmota marmota. This allows it to start breeding before other coexisting dung beetles. Population density peaks in July, From the beginning of August large numbers of young appear, and at least some of them breed in the same year of their emergence. This seems to be uncommon in the Aphodiidae, especially those living in high-altitude habitats. Resource selection varied according to age, sex and reproductive condition of individuals. In the dung of Ibex Capra ibex we found more males and fewer females than in dung of Marmot. Moreover, females found in Ibex dung carried fewer eggs than those collected in Marmot dung. It appears that Ibex dung is mainly an occasional food source, while that of Marmot is also used for laying eggs, In laboratory tests we found that Marmot dung was preferred to Ibex dung only if freshly deposited. Old dung, where other insects had already been present, was avoided, Egg deposition occurred in underground burrows about 2.5 cm deep dug by adult females. These burrows probably protect the eggs from physical damage due to the high density of beetles living in the dung. Females prepared these burrows in 2-3 days without the help of males. After hatching larvae sometimes dug their own underground burrows as a shelter.

I analyzed the habitat selection of two Alpine marmots Marmota marmota (Linnaeus, 1758) populations (A and B) re-introduced in the Friulian Dolomites Natural Park (Eastern Italian Alps) in 1977 and 1983 respectively. Population A showed a higher density of family units than the more recently introduced and still increasing population B. I mapped winter burrows and I conferred proportions of usage of habitat types with their availability by the Jacobs index. Population B positively selected fewer types of habitat than population A, and particularly selected those habitat types more strongly selected by A. Through stepwise discriminant function analysis and oneway ANOVA, I analyzed the characteristics of the winter burrow surroundings, by splitting up the two study areas into sample squares covering 1 ha each. The importance of the alpine meadows and pastures was subordinate to the presence of rocks, especially in the pastures. Comparing the results obtained separately for the two populations, the more recent and less dense population showed a more restrictive habitat and slope selection, in accordance with the ideal free distribution theory. In order to validate the habitat suitability model obtained by discriminant analysis I applied it to two other populations of Alpine marmots present in FDNP and in the Julian Prealps Natural Park.

Dans les Alpes italiennes orientales, la réintroduction des marmottes alpines, disparues depuis la préhistoire, a débuté en 1955 et se poursuit. Au cours des décades passées, les lâchers ont été réalisés sans tenir compte de la capacité et de l’habitabilité des milieux. Particulièrement, du fait de la fragmentation des prairies alpines, il est essentiel d’évaluer l’isolement futur des populations avant que les réintroductions soient réalisées. Le Parc Naturel des Dolomites Frioulane s’est engagé dans l’établissement d’une métapopulation viable. Nous suggerons que la procédure adoptée par le parc est optimale. Elle comprend trois étapes : A) localisation des aires potentielles de réintroduction ; B) analyse des besoins de l’espèce dans ces milieux et formulation d’un modèle d’habitabilité (MH); C) évaluation de l’habitabilité des aires potentielles de réintroduction.

Deletion mutants of hepatitis B virus (HBV) are often found in chronically HBV-infected patients. It has not been possible to study the significance of such deletion mutants on liver diseases in a suitable animal model. In this study, we characterized naturally occurring deletion mutants of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) in 11 chronically WHV-infected woodchucks. Deletions within the WHV preS region (nt 2992-338) had a length of 72 or 84 bp and were located in the amino terminal part of preS1. Internal deletions within the core gene (CID) had variable lengths (103 to 312 bp) and were identified within the center of this gene (nt 2021-2587). Four of seven CIDs were in-frame deletions, whereas the remaining three CIDs were out-of-frame deletions and led to the interruption of the reading frame. Sequence analysis of cloned PCR products of CIDs showed that heterogeneous WHV deletion mutants coexisted in single woodchucks. In addition, WHV genomes with double deletions in the preS1 and the core region could be found. We were unable to detect the expression of truncated core proteins in transfection experiments. The CID mutations led to a marked increase of the expression of the luciferase gene which was fused to the start codon of WHV polymerase, probably due to the shortening of the untranslated region or the removal of AUGs preceding the polymerase start codon. The characterization of naturally occurring WHV deletion mutants will allow us to study their biological and pathogenic properties in the woodchuck model in the future.

La marmotte des Alpes est un rongeur a structure sociale très développée et fournit un bon exemple d'hibernation chez les Sciuridés. Sa physiologie hivernale est considérablement modifiée par l'anorexie et l'hypothermie, qui entraînent un ralentissement du métabolisme, de la fonction endocrinienne et du système nerveux autonome. La connaissance des mécanismes de l'hibernation progresse rapidement, mais chaque découverte génère de nouvelles interrogations.

This investigation is focused on the examination of the faunal remains from the Upper Paleolithic Yudinovo site. This site is located in the first alluvial terrace on the Right Bank of the Sudost' River. This site belongs to a big group of the Desna River basin Upper Paleolithic sites such as Yeliseevichi, Mezin, Timonovka and others. The settlement dated to the Late Valdai Glacial period (14 000 BP). The osteological collection numerated more than 22 000 identifiable bone remains belong to the 11 species of large and medium mammals. Among them the remains of polar fox (Alopex lagopus) are predominated. Bones of musk ox (Ovibos moschatus), wolf (Canis lupus), marmot (Marmota bobak) and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) are followed by less numerous correspondingly. The remains of microtine rodents, insectivores and mammoth have not been analyzed. Taphonomical and zooarchaeological analyses are including the classification of bone remains respect to color, weathering, breakage characteristics, surficial damage and the studies of bone surficial damage related to a human action and the animal skeletal parts representation. The results of analyses allow us to conclude that these bone assemblages originated mainly from the remains of prey brought to the site by hunters. One can say that the treatment of ungulate animals and large preys were made outside the settlement. In general men supplied the site by fells (often with distal skeleton elements of extremities) and some particular parts of the procured animals. The fragmentation of ungulate's longbones may be inferred by bone broken for marrow. The skinning of polar fox were also done within the procuring place and the fells together phalanges were brought to the site. A whole bodies of polar fox, marmot and wolf were transported not so often to the settlement for the treatment and the further utilization. Subsequently the useless whole or any parts of animal carcasses were piled (discarded) in pits (refuse pits). It can be testified by the presence of bones in anatomical order and the peculiarities of the weathering of skeleton elements connecting with the successive of the disarticulation of carcasses. The dark grey color of bones probably shows that the assemblages at first time were accumulated in the soil with high concentration of huminic acids. A good preservation of osteological material caused by both the rather fast accumulation of bone remains and the fast formation of the deluvial deposits in the region investigated.

Cheek-marking in yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris) was studied by observations of cheek-marking in two colonies from 10 June to 6 August, 1996 and by experimental studies of responses to olfactory secretions from the perioral gland. The rate of cheek-marking declined significantly as the season progressed. Most cheek-marking occurred within 3 m of the main burrow system and was primarly associated with sitting or lying and short locomotory bouts aroud the main burrow area. Cheek-marking rates of individuals differedsignificantly and adults appeared to mark more than yearlings. In the experiments, marmots cheek-marked stakes with perioral secretions significantly more than stakes without secretions. However, they marked unfamiliar and familiar smells equally. Marmots investigated strange secretions longer than familiar secretions and afmiliar secretions longer than blank treatment. Functionally, cheek-marking is a multipurpose activity. It provides cues for young of the year to learn the safe areas in the home range, imparts familiarity with the burrow area, communicates burrow occupancy, and functions in territorial defense.

There are problems in systematics and taxonomy of the genus Marmota decision of which alaborated by classical morphological methods. For the decision of these problems the application of modern methods from area of cytology, genetics, immunogenetics, biochemistry, bioacoustics, and molecular biology is expedient. In marmots systematics karyotyping, protein gelelectrophoresis, immunogenetics, bioacoustics, and the DNA sequences methods were applied. Chromosome numbers and morphology were described for all marmot species. The marmots chromosome karyotyping was carried out by the method of routine colouring. Studies of marmots were based on a few
specimens from limited number of localities. A karyological picture is discovery of 36- chromosome karyotype for subspecies M. baibacina kastschenko indicates on promising of chromosome study of marmots.
The only on the marmot’s interspecies relations research was carried out by the protein gel-electrophoresis method, as an attempt to define genetic distances between some species of Palearctic Marmota was made.
The constructed schema in a whole does not contradict to views of the majority of systematists, but it shows appreciable genetic affinity of the investigated Marmota species in comparison with another genus - Spermophilus. This work has preliminary character in connection with restricted material and unsufficiently complete scope of the investigated forms. The biochemical researches are perspective for study of the close forms with identical chromosome number, for example the bobak group. Alarm calls of marmots have species specific characters. They are used for specification of species areals, definition of hybrid zones and
definition of the taxonomy status of disputable populations of species with indistinct morphological differences. The application of these characters in marmot systematics is an achievement of the Russian zoological school. A level of relationship of the majority of Palearctic and Nearctic species of marmots was appreciated by immunogenetics method. The immunogenetic data became one of the arguments to consider M. camtschatica as superspecies. As a whole the immunogenetics method has appeared enough productive in application to marmot systematics, in particular at study of an interspecies polymorphism and genetic distances between the close forms. It has some restrictions. Marmots are studied by methods of molecular biology from the beginning of 90th. The method of mitochondrial genes cytochrome b and ND4 sequences was applied in marmots systematics. The method is perspective with using of increasing number of researched genes and special
views to nuclear genes. Palearctic marmots are better investigated than Nearctic by modern methods as by quantity of species and localities as on number of used techniques. Only complex application of modern methods of researches and morphological, physiological, ecological, ethological, biogeocenological researches can approach us to comprehension of processes, really proceeding in a nature, and to existing interspecies and intraspecies relations.

Les études du caryotype des marmottes paléarctiques ont modifié notre vision de leur faible différenciation. La découverte d'une forme de marmotte grise à 36 chromosomes nous a amené à décrire une
nouvelle espèce de marmotte paléarctique. D’autres spécimens hétérozygotes à 2n=37 ont été mis en évidence dans une population de M. baibacina à 38 chromosomes. Ils présentent la mutation chromosomique qui a conduit à l'émergence de la forme à 36 chromosomes. Les caractères de ces mutants s'accordent très bien à la théorie de la spéciation chromosomique. La découverte d'une mutation variable dans le milieu nous offre la possibilité d'étudier différents états de l'évolution chromosomique.

A schema of Palearctic marmots’ phylogenesis based on molecular-genetical, karyological and literature data is offered. A time of divergence of a marmot phylum from common stem of ground squirrels is dated from Miocene according to as palaeontological so molecular-genetical data. An initial Pliocene differentiation had developed on the American territory. Marmots came into the Asia in the beginning of late Pliocene before a disappearance of Beringian Bridge when deforestation of the North-East Asia and north of Alaska was. At the time a caudata-like marmot with 2n=38 migrated in Asia. Primary expansion of marmots expanded from North and East to South and West simultaneously with a shifting of woodless zones from North to South. M. caudata differentiated in Central Asia and M. marmota formed in Europe at the beginning of Pleistocene. Other early Pleistocene marmots were low differentiated sibirica- or himalayana-like forms. Middle Pleistocene warm period (700-800 thousand years ago) led to a general outspread of forests. It caused disappearance of marmots in South-East Europe and a considerable reduction and fragmentation of marmot’s area in Asia. Probably, at that period a differentiation of himalayana and sibirica began. These forms had a big common area for a long time apparently. Maybe, M. menzbieri was isolated in Middle Asia at that period. A growth of periglacial landscapes promoted an expansion of marmots at the late Pleistocene. At that stage, marmots had advanced from South and East to North and West, from Middle Pleistocene China-Mongolian refugium where himalayana and sibirica forms differentiated. Sibirica-like form became an ancestor of a bobak-group and a sibirica-camtschatica group. M. sibirica and M. camtschatica had differentiated during the second part of Pleistocene in Trans-Baikalia. An ancestor of bobak-group had colonized territories of periglacial steppe of East Asia and Europe during second Pleistocene glaciation (nearly 100-600 thousand years ago) intensive forming geographical races. Mikoulin interglacial (75-130 thousand years ago) led to reduction and fragmentation of an area of bobak-group marmots. At that time bobak and baibacina forms began to differentiate. The last evolution occurrences are an isolation of 36-chromosomal kastschenkoi in West Siberia and emergence of intra-species forms of M. bobak. These events may be dated from 17-21 thousand years ago when the last global glacial was.

The problem of the origin and evolution of genus Marmota remains debatable up to now in spite of intent attention of many researchers. On the whole the species structure of Eurasian marmots is discussed. In palearctic some authors distinguish from 1 (Rausch & rausch 1965) to 8 species (Ognev 1947, Gromov et al. 1965, Bibikov 1989, Hoffmann et al. 1992). That was evoked, apparently, by the difficult to apply the species criteria to allopatric forms and also this was evoked by not distinct morphological differences of some species and by the presence of traits of generalized forms, that witnesses about their recent formation. All marmots species were karyotyped in the sixties of this century (Lyapunova & Vorontsov 1969). A caryologitical homogeneity of Palearctic marmots was revealed (2n=38 ; NFa=64-66), except M. camtschatica (2n=40 ; NFa=62) (Lyapunova et al. 1992). However we can not exclude structural chromosomal reorganisations without change their numbers. For study of thin chromosomal structure the differential banding of chromosomes was used. Continuation before made, differential banding of 6 nominal marmots species from 9 localities of Palearctic were received by us. In the disposal we had : M bobac 4 specimens from Ukraine, M. b. schaganensis 1- from Kazakhstan; M. camtschatica camtschatica 4 specimens from Kamtchatka; M. c. bungei 1 from Yakutia; M. c. doppelmayeri 1 from Transbaykalia; M. caudata aurea 2 specimens from Kirgizia; M. baibacina kastschenko 1 specimen from Novosibirsk region; M. menzbieri menzbieri 1 specimen from Kirgizia, Chatkal range; M. sibirica sibirica 2 specimens from Transbaycalia. G- and N-banding of all species chromosomes were received for the first time. The results are on stage of processing.

Marmota flaviventris, marmotte à ventre jaune, yellow-bellied marmot, Mus musculus, souris grises, house mouse, Aedes aegypti, moustique, yellow fever mosquito.The role of the serine/threonine protein kinase B (PKB, also known as Akt) is becoming increasingly more evident to researchers investigating diverse cellular processes such as glucose uptake, cell-cycle progression, apoptosis and transcriptional regulation. New roles for PKB/Akt have been described in various organisms and biological processes. From the regulation of ovarian ecdysteroid production in the humble mosquito (Aedes aegypti), through the seasonal, tissue-specific regulation of PKB/Akt during the hibernation of yellow-bellied marmots (Marmota flaviventris), to the control of glucose metabolism and insulin signalling in the mouse (Mus musculus), our knowledge of the function of this protein kinase has expanded greatly in recent years. Significant advances in all aspects of PKB/Akt signalling have occurred in the past 2 years, including biological insights, novel substrates and newly discovered regulatory mechanisms of PKB/Akt. Collectively, these data expand the current models of PKB/Akt signalling and highlight potential directions for PKB/Akt research in the future.

A juvenile woodchuck (Marmota monax) with vestibular signs was found in Woodbridge, Ontario (Canada) and later euthanized. At necropsy there was marked distortion of the right side of the skull, where a large, fluctuant, subcutaneous mass extended under the zygomatic arch and caudally from the right eye towards the right ear. The mass was multiloculated and contained a large number of tapeworm cysticerci, each about 1 to 2 mm in diameter. The third and lateral ventricles of the brain were dilated and contained large numbers of similar cysticerci. Based on the exogenous budding of cysts and the morphology of the scolex in each cyst, they were identified as cysticerci of Taenia crassiceps. This is the first report of cerebral cysticercosis in a woodchuck.

A methodology based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction analysis for rapid mapping of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) integrations in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues is described. Conventional PCR with viral primer pairs is not suitable for mapping WHV-integrated regions because the presence of minimum amounts of non-integrated (PCR amplifiable) WHV genome and replicative intermediates cannot be excluded. The first relevant part of the strategy is the identification of the cellular sequences flanking the WHV integration in order to select one (or more) integration-specific primer. The cellular flanking sequence can be rapidly obtained by means of inverse-PCR amplification of the viral/cellular junction and sequencing of the product. Mapping of the integrated regions is carried out by fixed flanking primer PCR (FFP-PCR) using the cellular primer as a 'fixed' primer in PCR association with each of an available set of WHV primers. Amplification of episomal WHV sequences is thus avoided. PCR products can also undergo restriction analysis. PCR-positive viral primers and specific WHV restriction sites are assembled into a map, based on the size and restriction pattern of the PCR products. The results of WHV integration mapping in a woodchuck HCC are described.
En anglais, in English.
In woodchuck hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) the myc-oncogene family (particularly N-myc2) and the win locus of cellular genome have been reported as frequent targets for integration of woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) DNA. In this paper a further cellular locus, b3n, is reported as recurrent target for WHV integration in woodchuck HCC. Cloning and sequencing of a WHV-DNA integration and its cellular flanking regions showed that viral DNA was inserted in a chromosomal region already described for WHV integration in another single HCC. The two integration sites are only 0.5 kb apart. A link between WHV integration in b3n and HCC development may be postulated. Careful analysis of the sequence of the unoccupied locus revealed that, in addition to Alu-like repeats and a gag-like coding region, already described, several features of Matrix Attachment Region (MAR) sequences are present. Thus (part of) b3n might be a previously unrecognized MAR. Organization of the chromatin in functional domains and regulation of gene expression are some functions attributed to MAR sequences. The occurrence of WHV-DNA integration close to the same putative MAR in two different HCCs suggests that a mechanism of deregulation of MAR functions by WHV insertion might act in some liver tumors.

In liver tumors induced by chronic WHV infection in the WHV/woodchuck model of HBV infection, activation of genes of the myc family by WHV insertion has been well documented. Several studies have shown that N-myc2 is by far the most frequently involved, and in most cases, its transcriptional activation is due to WHV insertion nearby the gene. N-myc2 has been shown to be also activated by WHV insertion in two downstream loci, b3n and win. Although the extent of insertion in these latter loci in woodchuck tumors has not been investigated, their discovery has led to the notion that therein WHV insertion accounts for N-myc2 activation in the remaining tumors expressing the proto-oncogene in absence of any detectable alteration nearby the gene, a notion remained unproved and not further investigated yet. In the majority of cases, the above observations were derived from tumors developed in colony born laboratory bred woodchucks experimentally infected with standardized viral inocula, mostly of the same lineage. In the present work, we investigated a survey of liver tumors naturally developed in wild woodchucks with naturally acquired chronic WHV infection. Tumors had histological features of well to moderately differentiated HCCs. In most animals, multiple tumor nodules were observed; in the great majority of cases, they were shown to be independent tumors because their WHV integration patterns were not clonally related. 53 independent tumors were investigated for N-myc activation and WHV integration nearby N-myc genes and in the b3n and win loci. Comparison of our results with data from previous studies revealed that, in tumors from naturally infected wild woodchucks, the frequency of WHV integration nearby N-myc2 has a tendency to be lower and, in addition, N-myc2 activation is due to WHV integration nearby the gene significantly less frequently than in tumors from experimentally infected colony born animals (12/28, 43% vs. 15/20, 75%, P = 0.0397). These findings are likely related to the less uniform conditions as to infecting virus and host genetic background in naturally infected wild woodchucks with respect to experimentally infected colony born woodchucks and suggest that viral and/or host factors may influence the site of viral insertion finally detected in overt tumors. In addition, more than one third (11/28, 39%) tumors with activated N-myc2 transcription did not show rearrangement either nearby the gene, or in b3n or in win. These findings challenge the notion that integration in the downstream b3n and win loci is responsible for N-myc2 activation in tumors lacking insertion nearby N-myc2 and suggest that in a considerable fraction of liver tumors, at least from wild woodchucks, N-myc2 activation might be due either to WHV integration in further regions of the N-myc2 chromosomal domain or to other mechanisms related or unrelated to viral insertion.

Woodchuck hepatitis virus (WHV) and the woodchuck (Marmota monax) are models for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) induced by hepatitis B virus (HBV). In woodchuck liver tumors, the N-myc2 proto-oncogene is frequently activated by WHV integration either close to the gene or in the b3n and win downstream loci, located 10 and 150 kb from N-myc2, respectively. A scaffold/matrix attachment region (S/MAR) regulative element was shown to be in b3n, possibly mediating activation of the upstream N-myc2 gene upon WHV integration. To investigate if S/MAR elements are in win too, a 17-kb DNA fragment corresponding to the major region of WHV insertion in this locus was cloned and sequenced. Overlapping subcloned fragments spanning candidate S/MARs predicted by sequence analysis were tested by standard in vitro binding assays. Results showed the presence of two S/MAR elements in win. The distribution of previously described WHV insertions relative to the S/MARs reinforces the hypothesis that S/MARs nearby distal WHV insertions might be involved in long-range activation of N-myc2.

Allozymic variability of 303 Alpine marmots (Marmota m. marmota) from three local populations of the Swiss canton Grisons was studied by horizontal starch gel electrophoresis to corroborate or refute the 'species-wide bottleneck hypothesis' of this species. This hypothesis has previously been suggested in order to explain the low genetic variability on the allozyme level found so far in all regional populations of this species (Preleuthner and Pinsker 1993). Based on 25,436 genes presently studied, polymorphism was found at eight of 48 loci screened. All polymorphic loci were diallelic. Overall rate of polymorphism (16.7%) was significantly higher than the value based on all populations screened earlier from the Eastern and from parts of the Western Alps. Population-specific rates of polymorphism (8.33 - 14.58 %), expected heterozygosities (2.3 - 3.8 %) and H(e) / P -rates were well within the ranges found in many terrestrian mammalian species without obvious bottleneck history. These results contradict the 'species-wide bottleneck hypothesis' of Alpine marmots.

I monitored n=93 ear-tagged Vancouver Island marmots at 5 natural subalpine and "clearcut" colonies to assess demographic trends. Compared to other Marmota, M. vancouverensis is slow to achieve sexual maturity and exhibits low reproductive rates. Litter sizes of 1 to 5 were observed (mean = 3.16, s.d. = 0.60, n=26), and most females did not breed until age 4. Most mortality apparently occurs during winter hibernation. Significant differences exist between "natural" and "clearcut" marmots. Marmots in clearcuts are typically larger in size, perhaps due to earlier emergence from hibernation. Annual survival rates in clearcuts (50%) are significantly lower than those in natural habitats (>70%). Females born in clearcut colonies have a 9.3% chance of reaching reproductive age (age 4), while females born in natural colonies have a 38.9% chance. Clearcut habitats do not permit M. vancouverensis to establish stable colonies. I hypothesize that clearcut logging may have important metapopulation effects because clearcut habitats act as a "sink" for potential dispersers. Clearcutting could slow or prevent the natural recolonization of some historic habitats.

Vancouver Island Marmots (Marmota vancouverensis: Swarth) normally inhabit sub-alpine meadows at 1000-1400 metres elevation. In recent years marmots colonized habitats created by clearcut logging of forests above 700 metres in elevation, but disappeared from some natural habitats. The current population is small (100-200 individuals) and highly concentrated. M. vancouverensis exhibits low reproductive rates, with small litters ( mean= 3.36, SD = 0.83, n = 36), late sexual maturity ( age at first reproduction mean= 4.00, SD = 0.82, n = 13) and a lengthy non-reproductive interval between litters ( mean = 1.83 years, SD = 0.76, n = 6). Predation and unsuccessful hibernation are the most important causes of mortality. Marmots inhabiting recently logged habitats produce fewer young and show significantly lower survival rates. Clearcut habitats may act as population "sinks" by consuming more marmots than they produce. Forestry may ultimately slow or prevent recolonization of some historic habitats.

J'ai marqué et suivi des marmottes de l'île de Vancouver (M. vancouverensis) pour étudier les tendances démographiques des colonies des prairies sub-alpines naturelles et de celles des forêts récemment coupées. Cette marmotte a un taux de reproduction faible et produit des portées de 2 à 5 petits (moyenne= 3.36, SD = 0.83, n=36). Les femelles peuvent se reproduire à l'âge de 3 ans, mais la plupart ne le font qu'à l'âge de 4 ans (moyenne= 4.00, SD = 0.82, n=13) et il y a un intervalle d'au moins 1 an entre les portées (moyenne= 1.83, SD = 0.76, n=6). La fidélité des marmottes à un endroit est plus élevée aux sites naturels que dans les forêts coupées (65% versus 48%). L'âge maximal des femelles a été évalué à 9 ans dans les habitats naturels et à 5 ans dans les forêts coupées à blanc. Aucune femelle des forêts coupées à blanc (n=14) n'a produit plus d'une portée, alors que 5 des 14 femelles des milieux naturels ont produit 11 portées. Le coefficient net de reproduction des colonies des forêts coupées à blanc équivalait à moins de la moitié de celui estimé dans les colonies des milieux naturels (0.25 versus 0.72). Les forèts récemment exploitées servent peut-être de "bassins" démographiques en absorbant plus d'individus non sédentaires qu'ils n'en produisent et ces milieux empêchent donc la recolonisation des milieux naturels éloignés.

Marmota vancouverensis, protection, conservation, British columbia, Canada.
Description: The Vancouver Island (Marmota vancouverensis), like other members of the genus, is fossorial, herbivorous and hibernates during winter. M. vancouverensis differs from other species in karyotype, skull characteristics, pelage and behaviour. It is similar to other alpine-dwelling marmots in its slow maturation, long life span, and complex social organization. M. vancouverensis persists despite a small and fragmented natural habitat base. It exhibits a « metapopulation » structure. The entire population consists of a small colonies that occasionally form and become extinct.
Distribution: M. vancouverensis is endemic to Vancouver Island, British Columbia. The current population is concentrated within 5 adjacent watersheds on south-central Vancouver Island. Even within this area the population is extremely localized; >65% of marmots live on 4 mountains in the central 40 km2 portion of their current range. Paleaontological and archaeological records indicate that M. vancouverensis enjoyed a broader distribution in the recent geological past. Historic records suggest that marmots disappeared from some areas quite recently (10-30 years ago).
Protection: M. vancouverensis is listed as endangered under the B.C. Wildlife Act (1980). It is also listed as endangered by the Committee on the status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada, the U.S. Endangered Species Act and the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. Most colonies occur on privately owned lands. Two marmot habitats are legally protected (combined area of <400 ha).
Population size and trends: The current population contains 150-200 individuals. This represents a 50-60% decline in numbers during the past 10 years. Concomitant with this has been local extinction of several colonies during this period, including some which typically contained >10 adults.
Habitat: Vancouver Island marmots require three essential habitat features: 1) grasses and forbs to eat, 2) colluvial soil structure for construction of overnight and overwintering burrows, and 3) microclimatic conditions that permit summer foraging, thermoregulation, and successful hibernation. Most marmots are found between 1000 and 1400 metres in elevation, and on south to west-facing slopes. Habitat scarcity is the fundamental reason for the rartity of M. vancouverensis.Biology: M. vancouverensis is among the most social of marmots. They live in colonies which contains fewer than 5 adults on average. Females are capable of breeding at age 3, but most animals, do not breed until age 4. Young marmots disperse at age 2 or later, dispersal is fundamental to maintaining metapopulation structure.
Limiting factors: The essential short-trend problem is low adult and juvenile survival. Predators and unsuccessful hibernation are the principal causes of mortality. Both factors are exacerbated by the restricted range. reproduction rates are apparently stable. There is no evidence of inbreeding depression or disease. Long -term problems probably include reduced long-distance dispersal (altered landscape connectivity caused by logging, invasion of sub-alpine meadows). The question of why marmots no longer inhabits some areas is of fundamental importance. If climatic change is principally responsible, efforts to re-establish colonies will fail and there may be little that managers can do to enhance marmot populations. Alternatively, if human-caused alteration of landscape connectivity is the problem, then reintroductions should allow recovery of the species within a reasonable time period.
Special significance of the species: M. vancouverensis is one of only five endemic mammals in Canada. It is the only endemic mammal species which appears on the COSEWIC endangered list.
Recommendations/Management options: Recovery Plan objectives have not been met. The current « eggs in one basket » distribution is highly dangerous. Planned recovery activities (research, captive-breeding, and reintroduction) should be pursued vigorously, with the objective of increasing numbers and distribution as speedily as possible.
Evaluation: Recommended status is Endangered.
Distribution : M. vancouverensis est endémique dans l'île de Vancouver en Colombie Britannique. La population actuelle est concentrée dans cinq bassins versants au centre -sud de l'île de Vancouver. Même dans cette région, la population, est très localisée puisque plus de 65% des marmottes vivent sur quatre montagnes dans 40 km2 au centre de leur aire actuelle de distribution. Des données paléontologiques et archéologiques indiquent que M. vancouverensis était plus répandue dans le passé géologique récent. Selon les données historiques, la marmotte a disparu de certaines régions fort récemment (il y a de 10 à 30 ans).
Protection : Selon la loi (1980) sur la faune de la C-B., M. vancouverensis figure sur la liste des espèces en danger de disparition. elle est aussi sur la liste des espèces en péril du Comité sur le statut des espèces menacées de disparition du Canada, de la Endangered Species Act des E-U. et de l'Union mondiale pour la conservation de la nature. La plupart des colonies vivent sur des terrains privés. Deux sites inhabités par cette marmotte jouissent d'une protection légale (pour une superficie combinée de moins de 400 ha).
Taille et tendance de la population : La population actuelle est de 150 à 200 individus, ce qui représente une baisse de 50 à 60% au cours des 10 dernières années. Plusieurs colonies sont disparues au cours de la même période, y compris certaines qui avaient plus de 10 adultes.
Habitat : L'habitat de la marmotte de l'île de Vancouver doit avoir trois caractéristiques : 1) des graminées et des plantes herbacées dicotylédones à manger ; 2) un sol colluvial permettant la construction de terriers pour s'abriter la nuit et de ceux nécessaires pour hiverner, 3) un microclimat permettant l'alimentation en été, la thermorégulation et une hibernation réussie. On observe la plupart des marmottes à une élévation de 1 000 à 1 400 mètres sur les pentes sud ou ouest des montagnes. La rareté de l'habitat est la raison fondamentale de la rareté de la M. vancouverensis.
Biologie : M. vancouverensis est une des marmottes les plus sociales. les colonies ont en moyenne moins de cinq adultes. Les femelles peuvent se reproduire à trois ans, mais la plupart ne se reproduisent pas avant l'âge de quatre ans. Les jeunes marmottes se dispersent à deux ans ou un peu plus tard ; la dispersion est essentielle au maintien de la structure de métapopulation.
Facteurs contraignants : Le principal problème à court terme est la faible survie des adultes et des juvéniles. Les prédateurs et les conditions d'hibernation sont les principales causes de mortalité. Les deux facteurs sont aggravés par l'aire limitée. Les taux de reproduction semblent stables. il ne semble pas y avoir de problèmes de santé causés par la consanguinité. Les problèmes à long terme comprennent probablement la réduction de la dispersion sur de longues distances (l'isolation des terrains eux à cause de l'exploitation forestière ainsi que la réduction de la survie dans les terrains exploités) et le changement climatique et de la végétation (l'invasion des prés subalpins par les arbres). Il est d'importance fondamentale de comprendre pourquoi les marmottes ne vivent plus dans certaines régions. Si le changement climatique est la principale cause, les efforts de rétablissement des colonies ne vont pas réussir et les interventions des gestionnaires visant à accroître le nombre de marmottes peuvent donc être limitées. Par ailleurs, si les bris entre les terrains provoqués par l'exploitation forestière sont la cause du problème, les réintroductions devraient permettre le rétablissement de l'espèce dans un délai raisonnable.
Importance particulière de l'espèce : M. vancouverensis est l'un des cinq mammifères endémiques du Canada. Elle est la seule espèce de mammifère endémique inscrite sur la liste des espèces en péril du CSEMDC.
Recommandations/options de gestion : Les objectifs du plan de rétablissement n'ont pas été atteints. La concentration actuelle de l'espèce sur le même territoire est très inquiétante. Il faut poursuivre vigoureusement les activités de rétablissement prévues (recherches, reproduction en captivité et réintroductions) dans le but d'accroître aussi rapidement que possible le nombre et la distribution des marmottes.
Evaluation : Recommandée au statut EN DANGER DE DISPARITION.

I used data from marked animals, radio-telemetry and population counts to test whether population dynamics were consistent with predictions made under five hypotheses: habitat tracking, sink-connectivity, weather, predators and disease. Estimates of demographic rates from intensive mark-recapture work and population counts were generally consistent, although estimation of adult survival from counts was problematic because of the difficulty of distinguishing surviving marmots from immigrants. There was no apparent influence of mark-recapture on survival or reproduction, and intensively studied colonies showed similar dynamics to colonies that were visited infrequently.
There was little evidence for habitat tracking in natural habitats. Few colonies showed chronically low reproduction or survival, which would be the predicted result of a gradually deteriorating environment. Declines were more often abrupt and catastrophic. Marmots did not colonize clearcuts in proportion to their temporal or spatial availability, and ultimately colonized only a minuscule fraction of the potential habitat. However, marmots already inhabiting clearcuts represent a special case of habitat tracking; survival rates were significantly lower at clearcuts of more advanced seral age (i.e., >11 years after harvest).
Evidence for source-sink and landscape connectivity processes was relatively strong. Marmots inhabiting clearcuts had chronically lower survival rates (by 5-10%). Per female reproductive contribution in clearcuts was half that of females inhabiting natural environments. However not all clearcuts acted as sinks, or acted as sinks in all years. Colonizations of clearcuts were spatially concentrated and none occurred at distances greater that 5 km from an existing natural colony. Apparent adult survival was significantly associated with isolation but juvenile survival was not, which is consistent with the prediction that isolated colonies should receive fewer immigrants. However the spatial pattern of extinctions was unexpected. Isolated and closely-clustered colonies had similar probabilities of extinction.
Weather significantly influenced marmot survival and reproduction but explained only small amounts of variation. Survival was significantly associated with rainfall, temperature and snowpack depth. Reproduction was negatively associated with snowpack and temperature. Slope aspect was significantly associated with survival, perhaps suggesting the importance of snowmelt patterns. Natural and clearcut colonies responded differently to weather.
Indices of wolf and cougar abundance were inconsistent and probably do not reflect true population sizes. Deer abundance was weakly associated with marmot survival in natural habitats, which could suggest switching of predator hunting effort. Marmot survival was spatially correlated, which is consistent with the idea that a few individual predators may focus hunting efforts at adjacent colonies. Field observations and radio-telemetry corroborated the importance of predators. In natural habitats, disappearances were uniformly distributed throughout summer, as predicted. In clearcuts, disappearances were more heavily skewed towards late summer, suggesting that winter mortality was more important.
Spatial correlation of survival is also consistent with the disease hypothesis. Survival was lower in colonies with high relative density of adults, which is a predicted result given the prediction of increased risk of disease transmission. The incidence of high mortality events increased during the 1990s, and the degree of spatial correlation also increased despite a more fragmented population structure. These trends are consistent with a hypothesis of a new disease organism or increased risk of infection.
Forestry appears to be the primary cause of recent population dynamics in the Nanaimo Lakes region. Logging reduced overall marmot survival, inhibited their ability to re-colonize sites, and concentrated the population, making colonies more susceptible to predators and disease. The prognosis for continued survival remains hopeful provided that current plans for captive-breeding and reintroduction are pursued aggressively.

Marmota vancouverensis.
I used population count data collected from 1979-1998 to evaluate the relative importance of chronic versus episodic mortality patterns in Vancouver Island marmots (Marmota vancouverensis). I hypothesized that some factors (e.g., gradual vegetation change, forestry effects, or predation) should produce chronic patterns of mortality, and others (disease and weather) should produce episodic patterns. A few colonies had consistently low survival. These results are consistent with a hypothesis of poor quality sink habitats that are maintained by immigration from nearby sources. However, most colonies had distinct episodes of high mortality, and these appear to be the primary cause of recent population declines. Spatial and temporal patterns of survival are consistent with a hypothesis of disease outbreak or increased hunting effort by predators within a small geographic area. The impact of both factors was probably exacerbated by forestry activities. Results underscore the precarious status of this endangered mammal and illustrate the value of carefully designed annual population surveys.

The Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis) is probably North America’s most endangered mammal. The wild population of this island endemic has declined from over300 individuals during the 1980s to fewer than 35 individuals at present. The species also provides an unusual case study in conservation. Apart from climate-vegetation change over lengthy time scales, there has been no direct • loss ™ or • destruction ™ of habitat. However, the small habitat patches in which marmots live are embedded in a landscape matrix that has exceptionally high economic value (commercially valuable forests), and the landscape has been extensively modified by clearcut logging. Populations of predators such as wolves (Canus lupus) and cougars (Puma concolor), together with prey species such as Black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus), have also changed dramatically. The result has been unsustainably-high levels of predation and near-extinction of marmots in the wild. Fortunately a captive-breeding program, established literally at the last minute in 1997, has apparently been successful at preventing extinction. However, restoring wild marmot populations also represents a conservation challenge on several levels. The first challenge is to raise sufficient marmots in captivity to furnish the raw material for reintroduction. Evidence to date suggests that this challenge will be met. The second challenge is to remove the proximate cause of decline by reducing current losses from predation. The third and largest, challenge must be to determine how the already-modified landscape can be managed in such a fashion as to allow marmot population processes (births, deaths and between-patch dispersal) to return to more sustainable levels. Here I report on the encouraging progress so far made in captive-breeding and reintroducing marmots, and discuss the options for short and long-term landscape management.

Des données récoltées dans des populations en captivité et en nature de la marmotte de l’île de Vancouver (Marmota vancouverensis Swarth, 1911), une espèce fortement menacée, durant la période 1980-2004, ont permis d’estimer les taux de reproduction. Les résultats se rapprochent de ceux obtenus chez d’autres marmottes alpines, en particulier chez les espèces apparentées, Marmota caligata (Eschscholtz, 1829) et Marmota olympus (Merriam, 1898). Les femelles en captivité se reproduisent pour la première fois à 3 ou 4 ans (Treproduction = 4,3 ans, ET = 1,15, n = 9), ce qui ne diffère pas significativement des femelles en nature (Treproduction = 3,6 ans, ET = 1,2, n = 16). Les nombres de petits sevrés par portée sont semblables en captivité (Npetits = 3,0, ET = 1,4, n = 25) et en nature (Npetits = 3,4, ET = 1,1, n = 58). Les femelles réussissent à sevrer des petits durant deux années consécutives (46,4 %, n = 13), mais elles sautent souvent une année (39,3 %, n = 11) ou deux (14,3 %, n = 4) entre les portées. Les femelles de 2 ans réussissent rarement à sevrer leurs petits (Preproduction = 0,09, n = 43) et les femelles plus âgées sont plus susceptibles de se reproduire (Preproduction = 0,40, n = 200), sans différence significative entre la captivité et la nature. La femelle reproductive la plus âgée avait 10 ans, mais la taille des échantillons d’animaux plus vieux que 8 ans est petite et l’âge maximal de reproduction a pu être sous-estimé. Les intervalles entre les portées sont significativement plus courts en captivité (Tintervalle = 1,4 année, ET = 0,7, n = 11) qu’en nature (Tintervalle = 1,9 année, ET = 0,7, n = 17). Les rapports femelles:mâles ne diffèrent pas de 1:1 en nature (femelle/mâle = 1,04), mais ils favorisent significativement les mâles en captivité (femelle/mâle = 0,56). En conclusion, la performance reproductive de la marmotte de l’île de Vancouver est restreinte tant par sa condition corporelle que par ses contraintes sociales.

We used data from systematic population surveys, ear-tagged or radiotagged animals, GIS-based landscape measurements, and missing values analysis to clarify changes in the abundance and distribution of Vancouver Island marmots (Marmota vancouverensis). Data are insufficient to assess population dynamics or the timing of marmot disappearance from parts of northern Vancouver Island. On southern Vancouver Island, clearcut logging of old-growth forests was associated with profound changes in marmot abundance and patterns of habitat occupancy. Marmots began to colonize recently logged (0-15 year old) clearcuts during the early 1980s. By the 1990s half of the world’s population of this species was living in clearcuts. However this expansion was temporary and limited in geographic scope. Overall marmot numbers declined from a peak of 300-350 animals during the mid-1980s to fewer than 70 animals in 1999. The principal effect of forestry was to concentrate the population, apparently making marmots more susceptible to mortality from unsuccessful hibernation, predators and disease. The prognosis for continued survival of this critically endangered species remains hopeful provided that current plans for captive-breeding and reintroduction are pursued aggressively.

We used location records and annual marmot count, landscape and predator-prey data to assess recent changes in Vancouver Island marmot populations. There were probably fewer than150 marmots in 1997, with 90% distributed south of Alberni Inlet and the remainder on or near Mount Washington. This represents a 60% decline in numbers during the past decade and a similar reduction in geographic range in the last several decades. Forestry was associated with profound structural changes in the largest remaining metapopulation. Half of the world's M. vancouverensis were living in clearcuts in 1997, compared to ~25% in the mid 1980s and none prior to high elevation logging that began in the late 1960s. Adult population trends and per capita birth rates were not correlated among natural and clearcut habitats. Probable adult numbers in natural habitats were correlated with deer abundance and extent of old-growth forests (P<0.001) and negatively associated with cougar abundance (p<0.05). adult numbers in clearcuts were not correlated with potential clearcut habitat availability or deer abundance. some curious results were obtained. probable adult numbers in natural habitats were positively associated with wolf abundance (p<0.05) while numbers in clearcuts were positively associated with cougar abundance (p<0.05). results suggest that several environmental factors influence M. vancouverensis and that natural and clearcut colonies respond differently.
Les changements récents des populations de marmotte de l’île de Vancouver ont été évalués à partir des enregistrements de localisation et des comptages annuels de marmottes, des données sur les paysages et de prédateur-proie. Il y avait probablement moins de 150 marmottes en 1997, dont 90% d’entre elles se trouvaient au sud d’Alberni Inlet et les restantes sur ou près du mont Washington. Leur nombre a décliné de 60% au cours de la dernière décade et leur aire de répartition géographique a diminué de façon similaire au cours des dernières décades. La foresterie est associée aux modifications structurales profondes de la plus grande métapopulation restante. Les zones de coupe à blanc étaient occupées par la moitié de la population de marmottes. La moitié des M. vancouverensis occupait des zones de coupe à blanc en 1997, alors qu’elles n’étaient qu’approximativement 25% au milieu des années 1980 et qu’aucune d’entre-elles ne s’y trouvait avant la forte augmentation de la déforestation qui a commencé fin des années 60. Les tendances démographiques de la population adulte et des taux de naissance par individus ne sont pas en corrélation parmi les habitats naturels et les habitats de clairière. Le nombre probable d’adultes des habitats naturels est en corrélation positive avec l’abondance des cerfs et l’extension des forets anciennes (P < 0,001) et en corrélation négative avec l’abondance des cougars (p < 0,05). les nombres d’adultes dans les coupes à blanc ne sont pas en corrélation avec la disponibilité de ces habitats potentiels ni avec l’abondance des cerfs. quelques résultats curieux ont été obtenus. les nombres probables d’adultes des habitats naturels sont en corrélation (p < 0,05) avec l’abondance des loups (p < 0,05) alors que les nombres d’adultes des coupes à blancs sont en corrélation positive avec l’abondance des cougars (p < 0,05).les résultats suggèrent que de nombreux facteurs environnementaux influencent M. vancouverensis et que les colonies naturelles et des coupes à blanc régissent différemment.

Nous avons évalué les canevas d'hibernation de populations sauvages et captives de la marmotte, très menacée, de l'île de Vancouver (Marmota vancouverensis). Réglage et durée de l’hibernation sont significativement affectés par la captivité. Les marmottes sauvages entrent en hibernation 6 semaines plus tôt et en sortent 5 semaines plus tard que les marmottes captives. Celles-ci hibernent à des températures (6-9°) et des humidités relatives (28-83 %) variables. Des conditions plus chaudes et plus sèches diminuent souvent la durée d'hibernation. Dans la nature, les marmottes solitaires hibernent avec succès dans une variété d'habitats et les antenais n'hibernent pas toujours avec leurs parents. Les Pertes de Masse Journalières des animaux torpides suggèrent que les marmottes de Vancouver sont des hibernants efficaces (moyenne PMJ = 0,95 ; IC 95 % = 0,89 à 1,01 ; n = 102). L’existence de thermorégulation sociale n’est pas évidente. Le comportement d'hibernation de la marmotte de Vancouver peut refléter une histoire évolutive favorisant la survie de petits groupes. Les comparaisons interspécifiques de l’efficacité de l’hibernation peuvent être biaisées par le moment de la mesure.

We used radiotelemetry to evaluate seasonal survival rates and mortality factors for a critically endangered island endemic, the Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis Swarth, 1911). Recovery of radio transmitters and marmot remains suggested that predation was the major cause of mortality, accounting for at least 24 of 29 (83%) known-fate deaths recorded since radiotelemetry efforts began in 1992. Wolves (Canis lupus L., 1758) and cougars (Puma concolor (L., 1771)) apparently accounted for 17 deaths (59%). Three marmots (10%) were killed by golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos (L., 1758)), four (14%) were killed by unknown predators that probably included all of the above species, two (7%) died from unknown causes, and three (10%) died during hibernation in a single burrow. Mortality rates varied seasonally. The daily probability of death during hibernation was very low (Pdeath = 0.016). The probability of death was also low from spring emergence through 31 July (Pdeath = 0.051), but was eight times higher in August (Pdeath = 0.395) and four times higher in September (Pdeath = 0.175). We concluded that predation was the proximate cause of recent declines in wild Vancouver Island marmot populations, that losses were highly concentrated in late summer, and that previous studies exaggerated the importance of winter mortality. We suggest that high predation rates were associated with forestry and altered predator abundance and hunting patterns.
La radio-télémétrie nous a servi à évaluer le taux saisonnier de survie et les facteurs de mortalité chez la marmotte de l'île de Vancouver (Marmota vancouverensis Swarth, 1911), une espèce endémique insulaire fortement menacée. La récupération des émetteurs et des carcasses de marmottes laisse croire que la prédation est la cause principale de mortalité, représentant au moins 24 (83 %) des 29 cas étudiés depuis le début de l'utilisation de la radio- télémétrie en 1992. Les loups (Canis lupus L., 1758) et les couguars (Puma concolor (L., 1771)) sont apparemment responsables de 17 (59 %) des morts. Trois (10 %) des marmottes ont été tuées par des aigles royaux (Aquila chrysaetos (L., 1758)) et quatre (14 %) par des prédateurs inconnus qui incluent peut-être toutes les espèces mentionnées précédemment; deux (7 %) sont mortes de causes inconnues et trois (10 %) sont mortes dans un même terrier durant l'hibernation. Les taux de mortalité varient en fonction de la saison. La probabilité quotidienne de mortalité durant l'hibernation est très faible (P = 0,016). La probabilité de mortalité est aussi faible de l'émergence printanière jusqu'au 31 juillet (P = 0,051), mais elle est huit fois plus élevée en août (P = 0,395) et quatre fois plus élevée en septembre (P = 0,175). En conclusion, la prédation est la cause immédiate des déclins récents des populations sauvages de marmottes de l'île de Vancouver, les pertes sont fortement concentrées en fin d'été et les études antérieures ont exagéré l'importance de la mortalité hivernale. Nous croyons que les forts taux de prédation s'expliquent par les pratiques forestières, ainsi que par les changements dans l'abondance des prédateurs et les patterns de chasse.

Key-words: disease, reintroduction, Vancouver Island marmot (Marmota vancouverensis).
En 1996, nous avons réalisé une réintroduction expérimentale de la marmotte de Vancouver (Marmota vancouverensis). Six animaux, captures dans 3 colonies installées dans des habitats récemment déboisés, ont été relâchés dans une prairie naturelle subalpine. Deux mâles ont quitté le site peu après le lâcher. Un mâle, tué par un prédateur, fut retrouvé à 5 Km du site de lâcher; le second n’a pas été revu.Les 4 animaux restants se sont installés sur le site de lâcher où ils ont creusé des terriers, se sont alimentés et ont présenté une croissance pondérale typique, et sont entrés en hibernation. Ces animaux sont morts pendant l’hiver 1996-1997. Leur mort est due à une infection bactérienne (Yersinia frederiksenii). Notre expérience souligne la fragilité des réintroductions réalisées avec un petit nombre d’animaux et illustre les risques de maladies dans les populations réintroduites de petite taille.

A unique series of simple "unnatural" nucleosides has been discovered to inhibit hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication. Through structure-activity analysis it was found that the 3'-OH group of the beta-L-2'-deoxyribose of the beta-L-2'-deoxynucleoside confers specific antihepadnavirus activity. The unsubstituted nucleosides beta-L-2'-deoxycytidine, beta-L-thymidine, and beta-L-2'-deoxyadenosine had the most potent, selective, and specific antiviral activity against HBV replication. Human DNA polymerases (alpha, beta, and gamma) and mitochondrial function were not affected. In the woodchuck model of chronic HBV infection, viral load was reduced by as much as 10(8) genome equivalents/ml of serum and there was no drug-related toxicity. In addition, the decline in woodchuck hepatitis virus surface antigen paralleled the decrease in viral load. These investigational drugs, used alone or in combination, are expected to offer new therapeutic options for patients with chronic HBV infection.

Et pour mettre de l' ordre dans cette réduction,
nous séparerons d' abord les animaux des deux
continents, et nous observerons qu' on peut réduire
à quinze genres et à neuf espèces isolées,
non-seulement tous les animaux qui sont communs
aux deux continents, mais encore tous ceux qui
sont propres et particuliers à l' ancien. Ces genres
sont : 1 yy celui des solipèdes proprement dits, qui
contient le cheval, le zèbre, l' âne avec les mulets
féconds et inféconds ; 2 yy celui des grands pieds
fourchus à cornes creuses, savoir le boeuf et le
buffle avec toutes leurs variétés ; 3 yy la grande famille
des pieds fourchus à cornes creuses, tels
que les brebis, les chèvres, les gazelles, les chevrotains
et toutes les autres espèces qui participent
p140
de leur nature ; 4 yy celle des pieds fourchus
à cornes pleines ou bois solides, qui tombent et
qui se renouvellent tous les ans : cette famille
contient l' élan, le renne, le cerf, le daim, l' axis et
le chevreuil ; 5 yy celle des pieds fourchus ambigus,
qui est composée du sanglier et de toutes les variétés
du cochon, telles que celui de Siam à ventre
pendant, celui de Guinée à longues oreilles pointues
et couchées sur le dos, celui des Canaries à
grosses et longues défenses, etc.. ; 6 yy le genre très-étendu
des fissipèdes carnassiers à griffes, c' est-à-dire
à ongles crochus et rétractibles, dans lequel
on doit comprendre les panthères, les léopards,
les guépards, les onces, les servals et les chats,
avec toutes leurs variétés ; 7 yy celui des fissipèdes
carnassiers à ongles non rétractibles, qui contient
le loup, le renard, le chacal, l' isatis et le chien,
avec toutes leurs variétés ; 8 yy celui des fissipèdes
carnassiers à ongles non rétractibles, avec une
poche sous la queue : ce genre est composé de
l' hyène, de la civette, du zibet, de la genette, du
blaireau, etc.. ; 9 yy celui des fissipèdes carnassiers,
à corps très-allongé, avec cinq doigts à chaque
pied, et le pouce ou premier ongle séparé des autres
doigts : ce genre est composé des fouines,
martes, putois, furets, mangoustes, belettes, vansires,
etc.. ; 10 yy la nombreuse famille des fissipèdes
qui ont deux grandes dents incisives à chaque
mâchoire et point de piquants sur le corps : elle
est composée des lièvres, des lapins, et de toutes
les espèces d' écureuils, de loirs, de marmottes et
de rats ; 11 yy celui des fissipèdes dont le corps est
couvert de piquants, tels que les porcs-épics et
les hérissons ; 12 yy celui des fissipèdes couverts
d' écailles, les pangolins et les phatagins ; 13 yy le
genre des fissipèdes amphibies, qui contient
la loutre, le castor, le desman, les morses et les
phoques ; 14 yy le genre des quadrumanes, qui contient
les singes, les babouins, les guenons, les
makis, les loris, etc.. ; 15 yy enfin celui des fissipèdes
ailés, qui contient les roussettes et les chauves-souris,
avec toutes leurs variétés. Les neuf
espèces isolées sont l' éléphant, le rhinocéros,
l' hippopotame, la girafe, le chameau, le lion,
et le tigre, l' ours et la taupe, qui toutes sont
aussi sujettes à un plus ou moins grand nombre
de variétés.
De ces quinze genres et de ces neuf espèces isolées,
deux espèces et sept genres sont communs
aux deux continents ; les deux espèces sont : l' ours
et la taupe ; et les sept genres sont : 1 yy celui des
grands pieds fourchus à cornes creuses ; car le
boeuf se retrouve en Amérique sous la forme du
bison ; 2 yy celui des pieds fourchus à bois solide ;
car l' élan se trouve au Canada, sous le nom d' original,
le renne sous celui de caribou, et l' on
trouve aussi dans presque toutes les provinces de
l' Amérique septentrionale des cerfs, des daims et
des chevreuils ; 3 yy celui des fissipèdes carnassiers
à ongles non rétractibles ; car le loup et le renard
se trouvent dans le nouveau monde comme dans
l' ancien ; 4 yy celui des fissipèdes à corps très-alongé ;
la fouine, la marte, le putois se trouvent
en Amérique comme en Europe ; 5 yy on y trouve
aussi une partie du genre des fissipèdes qui ont
deux grandes dents incisives à chaque mâchoire,
les écureuils, les marmottes, les rats, etc.. ; 6 yy celui
des fissipèdes amphibies ; les morses, les phoques,
les castors et les loutres existent dans le nord du
nouveau continent, comme dans celui de l' ancien ;
7 yy le genre des fissipèdes ailés y existe aussi en
partie, car on y trouve des chauves-souris et des
vampires, qui sont des espèces de roussettes. p. 141.

Spatial population structure has important ecological and evolutionary consequences. Little is known about the population structure of snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus), despite their ecological importance in North American boreal forests. We used seven variable microsatellite DNA loci to determine the spatial genetic structure of snowshoe hares near Kluane Lake, Yukon during a cyclic population peak. We sampled 317 hares at 12 sites separated by distances ranging from 3 to 140 km, and used 46 additional samples from Alaska and Montana. The level of genetic variation was high (13.4 alleles/locus, 0.67 expected heterozygosity) and the distribution of alleles and genotypes was not homogeneous across the sites. The degree of differentiation was low among Yukon sites (F ST = 0.015) and between Yukon and Alaska (F ST = 0.012), but the Montana site was highly differentiated (F ST = 0.20). A weak pattern of isolation by distance was found over the Yukon study area, with an indication that local genetic drift may be important in shaping the regional genetic structure. Landscape barriers expected to influence gene flow did not consistently affect genetic structure, although there was evidence for a partial barrier effect of Kluane Lake. The high level of inferred gene flow confirms that snowshoe hare dispersal is widespread, successful and equal between the sexes. A stepping-stone model of gene flow, potentially influenced by the synchronous density cycle, appears to best explain the observed genetic structure. Our results suggest that despite their dramatic fluctuations in density, snowshoe hares in the northern boreal forest have a large evolutionary effective population size and are not strongly subdivided by either physical or social barriers to gene flow.

Marmota caudata, marmotte longue queue, long-tailed marmot, Tien Chan, Tien Shan, Pamir-Alay, Ouzbekistan, Uzbekistan.
In Uzbekistan, long-tailed marmot (Marmota caudata Geoffroy, 1892)
inhabits two isolated areas - the Western Tien Shan and Pamiro-Alay. The
eastern and north-eastern border of its habitat runs across the Western
Tien Shan mountains and includes the Pskem, Ugam and Maidantal ridges
(the Maidantal, Bodaksay, Choralma rivers, and the Oigaing river basin),
as well as the southern slopes of the Chatkal ridge facing the Fergana valley
(Saldyrmasay, Chanachsay, Nanai). Also, long-tailed marmot was found near
village Soh on the northern slopes of the Alai ridge in the Fergana valley.
The Pamiro-Alay part of long-tailed marmot\'s habitat includes the western
spurs of the Gissar ridge along the Kizildarya, Tanhazdarya, Aksu, Tamshush,
Sangardak, and Handiza rivers. Though, in the past it was recorded in
Baisuntau, this data now needs to be confirmed. The habitat of long-tailed
marmot has expanded during the last decade. Its lower border moved down
for more than 10 km. In 2002, resettling marmots were observed in the close
vicinity of hydro-post Maidantal, tract Karanghi- Tugai (1414 rn a.s.l.). In
spring 2003, we saw marmots living at the left bank of the Pskem river at a
record-breaking low altitude of 1,377 rn a.s.l. In 1985-1990, a lower border
ran near mouth of the Beshtor river, the tributary of the Oigaing river, at
1800 m a.s.l. Moreover, a permanent residence of marmots was observed at
the left bank of the Charalma river, near the place where it flows into the
Oigaing river. In Pamiro-Alai, a habitat oflong-tailed marmot is shrinking. A
lower border of the species\' habitat was at midstream of the Kizildarya river,
at 2000 rn a.s.l. During the last decade this species has disappeared in the
upper-rivers Djindidarya, Igrisu, and Kalasay. In 1992, we investigated the
long-tailed marmot colonies at the left bank of the Kalasay river, at 3500 rn
a.s.l. (Vashetko et al., 1996). This territory was intensively used for livestock
grazing. We could observe the movement of sheep herds, found lost traps
near marmot\'s holes, and numerous hidden dwellings of poachers. At present,
long-tailed marmot has been completely exterminated in the area, as well as
in the upper-river Igrisu towards the border of the Gissar nature reserve and
a watershed ridge between the Kashkadarya and Surkhandarya provinces.
Uninhabited and partially destroyed burrows oflong-tailed marmot were still
remaining here.
