Sandfoss M, Reichling S, Roberts B
PLoS One . 2023 Mar; 18(3):e0282845. PMID: 36897888
The relationship between male ejaculate traits and reproductive success is an important consideration for captive breeding programs. A recovery plan for the endangered Louisiana pinesnake includes captive breeding for the...

Oliveri M, Sandfoss M, Reichling S, Richter M, Cantrell J, Knotek Z, et al.
Animals (Basel) . 2022 Nov; 12(21). PMID: 36359108
Accurate monitoring of reproductive activity is necessary for success of captive breeding and recovery of endangered species. Using ultrasonography, we aimed to describe the stages of follicle development of the...

Sandfoss M, Cantrell J, Roberts B, Reichling S
Animals (Basel) . 2022 Jul; 12(14). PMID: 35883371
Cryopreservation of sperm to preserve the genetic diversity of declining populations is a promising technique to aid in the recovery of endangered species such as the Louisiana pinesnake (). However,...

Sandfoss M, Whittington O, Reichling S, Roberts B
Cryobiology . 2021 Jul; 101:20-27. PMID: 34224691
Cryopreservation of sperm is an important tool for the conservation of threatened species. Many species of reptile are under considerable threat of extinction and there has been limited investigation of...

Roberts B, Brown J, Kersey D, Snyder R, Durrant B, Kouba A
PLoS One . 2018 May; 13(5):e0195599. PMID: 29718929
Pregnancy determination is difficult in the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanolecua), representing a challenge for ex situ conservation efforts. Research in other species experiencing pseudopregnancy indicates that urinary/fecal concentrations of 13,14,...

Gocinski B, Knott K, Roberts B, Brown J, Vance C, Kouba A
Reprod Fertil Dev . 2017 Aug; 30(2):399-408. PMID: 28768568
Giant pandas have been described as mono-oestrus spring breeders, yet males exposed to aseasonal oestrous females in the autumn or winter exhibit breeding behaviours and interest in mating. In the...

Gese E, Roberts B, Knowlton F
Anim Reprod Sci . 2016 Jan; 165:69-75. PMID: 26763531
Interactions between animals and their environment are fundamental to ecological research. Field studies of coyote (Canis latrans) reproductive performance suggest mean litter size changes in response to prey abundance. However,...

Knott K, Roberts B, Maly M, Vance C, Debeachaump J, Majors J, et al.
Reprod Biol Endocrinol . 2013 Aug; 11:83. PMID: 23981950
Background: Declining numbers of wild giant anteaters highlight the importance of sustainable captive populations. Unfortunately, captive reproductive management is limited by the lack of external physical indicators of female reproductive...
