High impact information on Trichechus manatus

To resolve the population genetic structure and phylogeography of the West Indian manatee (Trichechus manatus), mitochondrial (mt) DNA control region sequences were compared among eight locations across the western Atlantic region [1].
Synthesis of 5 beta-cholestane-3 alpha,6 beta,7 alpha,25,26-pentol and identification of a novel bile alcohol, alpha-trichechol, present in the West Indian manatee bile [2].
Nearly 100,000 people annually visit Crystal River, Florida, USA to observe and swim with the Florida manatee, an endangered species [3].
PROCEDURE: Specimens from West Indian manatee were preserved in 10% buffered formalin, embedded in paraffin, serial sectioned and stained by Masson trichrome for light microscopic three-dimensional reconstruction and evaluation [4].
