AB  - Background:  Mammalian mandible and cranium are well‑established model systems for studying canalization 
and developmental stability (DS) as two elements of developmental homeostasis. Nematode infections are usually 
acquired in early life and increase in intensity with age, while canalization and DS of rodent skulls could vary through 
late postnatal ontogeny. We aimed to estimate magnitudes and describe patterns of mandibular and cranial canaliza‑
tion and DS related to age and parasite intensity (diversity) in adult yellow‑necked mice (Apodemus favicollis).
Results:  We found the absence of age‑related changes in the levels of canalization for mandibular and cranial size 
and DS for mandibular size. However, individual measures of mandibular and cranial shape variance increased, while 
individual measures of mandibular shape fuctuating asymmetry (FA) decreased with age. We detected mandibular 
and cranial shape changes during postnatal ontogeny, but revealed no age‑related dynamics of their covariance 
structure among and within individuals. Categories regarding parasitism difered in the level of canalization for cranial 
size and the level of DS for cranial shape. We observed diferences in age‑related dynamics of the level of canalization 
between non‑parasitized and parasitized animals, as well as between yellow‑necked mice parasitized by diferent 
number of nematode species. Likewise, individual measures of mandibular and cranial shape FA decreased with age 
for the mandible in the less parasitized category and increased for the cranium in the most parasitized category.
Conclusions:  Our age‑related results partly agree with previous fndings. However, no rodent study so far has 
explored age‑related changes in the magnitude of FA for mandibular size or mandibular and cranial FA covariance 
structure. This is the frst study dealing with the nematode parasitism‑related canalization and DS in rodents. We 
showed that nematode parasitism does not afect mandibular and cranial shape variation and covariance structure 
among and within individuals. However, parasite intensity (diversity) is related to ontogenetic dynamics of the levels 
of canalization and DS. Overall, additional studies on animals from natural populations are required before drawing 
some general conclusions.

AB  - Rodents host a variety of parasitic worms that often cause diseases in animals and humans,
better known as helminths. A total of 47 helminth species in 10 rodent hosts from 15 sites
have been noted in the territory of Serbia: three species of flukes, 13 species of tapeworms,
two species of spiny-headed worms and 29 species of roundworms. Of the tapeworms,
Hymenolepis fraterna infected the most host species (6) at the highest number of sites (5).
Among roundworms, the species found in the largest number of host species (5) and sites (13)
was Heligmosomoides polygyrus. Other widely distributed roundworms were Syphacia
stroma (four host species, 12 sites) and S. frederici (three host species, 10 sites). The sites
with the highest diversity of rodent helminths were the Belgrade area, Fruška gora mountain
and Zasavica. Eleven parasite species, among them Hymenolepis nana, H. diminuta,
Calodium hepaticum and Hydatigera taeniaeformis, are potentially zoonotic. Future studies
must include more sites and potentially invasive and invasive host species. Parasites such as
Echinococcus multilocularis, Alaria alata and Trichinella sp. deserve special attention: they
have been reported in Serbia from non-rodent hosts, but their life cycles include rodents.
Indicating the presence of a particular zoonotic group or species in rodents and defining their
distribution and prevalence builds a foundation for quantitative and qualitative analyses
necessary to monitor agents of zoonosis. Information on infection prevalence in natural
reservoirs, urban environment contamination and frequency of human infection is integrated
under the One Health approach.

AB  - Simulium reptans (Linnaeus, 1758) and Simulium reptantoides Carlsson, 1962 are two species of the Simulium reptans group whose distribution is unclear because of their confusing taxonomy and systematics. Their genetic variability is well known for populations in northern and central Europe and shows that both species have two forms; however, the genetic variability of these species in southern and eastern Europe is unknown. To identify the status of these two species in southeast Europe, mtDNA was extracted from 19 individuals from 12 localities across the Balkan Peninsula. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed the existence of two species with 7.38–7.94% divergence. Each species was comprised of two clades, with 2.31% and 1.43% interclade divergence for S. reptans and S. reptantoides , respectively. This study revealed the presence of both species across the Balkans and that S. reptans occurs in this area in only one form ( S. reptans B), while S. reptantoides is found in two genetic forms (A and B).

AB  - Large Mediterranean peninsulas of Europe like the Balkans, Italian and the Iberian Peninsula
have been recognized as Pleistocene glacial refugia for many temperate species. The aim of
this study was to investgate demographic history and genetc structure of Mediterranean
horseshoe bat populatons on the Balkan Peninsula. R. euryale is a cave-dwelling species
distributed throughout the Mediterranean region. We collected 82 samples from 20
localites in the Balkans and Italian Peninsula and analysed genetc diversity of mitochondrial
D-loop sequences. Our results revealed low nucleotde but high haplotype diversity, and 20
haplotypes were reported for the frst tme. Phylogenetc reconstructons showed that all
haplotypes obtained from both Peninsulas belong to the same lineage together with the
previously published samples from Turkey, southern France and North Africa. All haplotypes
from the current study represent single haplogroup and haplotype network had a star-like
topology that is indicatve of recent populaton expansion. Scenario of sudden demographic
expansion was also supported by shallow genetc differentaton and mismatch distributon
analysis, and we estmate that expansion within this lineage started afer the last glacial
maximum. We present the new data on genetc variaton in this species, and highlight the
importance of the Balkans in the demographic history of Mediterranean horseshoe bat. The
obtained results support the hypothesis that the Balkan Peninsula was a glacial refugium for
R. euryale during the Pleistocene.

AB  - The Balkan Peninsula is identified as one of the major glacial refugia in Europe during the
Pleistocene, and it has served as a genetic source for post-glacial recolonization for many temperate
species. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity and phylogeographic patterns of the
Mediterranean horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus euryale Blasius 1853, on the Balkan Peninsula. We also
analyzed its demographic history and tested the hypothesis that this region was a glacial refugium for this
species. We collected 82 samples from 20 localities in the Balkans and Italy and sequenced the
mitochondrial D-loop region. Our results revealed low nucleotide but high haplotype diversity, with 20
out of 24 haplotypes reported for the first time. All Balkan and Italian samples belonged to a single
genetic clade in the phylogenetic reconstruction, where they clustered together with previously published
samples from Turkey, southern France and North Africa. The haplotype network had a star-like pattern
that is indicative of recent population expansion. Both mismatch distribution and shallow genetic
differentiation also supported the scenario of a sudden demographic expansion. We estimated that
expansion within this lineage commenced in the Late Pleistocene. We suggest that the Balkan Peninsula
was a glacial refugium for R. euryale.

AB  - The greatest epidemiological significance of leptospirosis in Europe comes from the fact that it is the most widespread zoonosis in the world. However, epizootiological data, especially information on maintenance hosts such as small wild mammals, are largely missing. To fill this gap in data in Serbia, we used RT-PCR for the detection of pathogenic Leptospira species and analysed 107 animals belonging to six species of small wild mammals (Apodemus agrarius, Apodemus flavicollis, Microtus arvalis, Myodes glareolus, Microtus subterraneus and Sorex araneus) collected from two localities. The animals from the first locality that was situated in a tourist area, were collected for four consecutive years (2014-2017). We found persistent incidence of infection from year to year ranging from 6.67% to 78.57%. The average frequency of infected animals was 33.3% with the highest frequency in 2014, the year characterised by a very high number of flooding days. All animals proved to be infected with pathogenic Leptospira species that were collected from the second locality situated in an agricultural area in a single year, 2014. The findings show a variable but constant presence of pathogenic Leptospira species in populations of small wild mammals in the studied areas, which indicates the need for constant monitoring.

AB  - Migratory behaviour, sociality and roost selection have a great impact on the population structure of one species. Many bat species live in groups, and movements between summer and hibernation sites are common in temperate bats. The Mediterranean horseshoe bat Rhinolophus euryale is a cave-dwelling species that exhibits roost philopatry and undertakes seasonal movements which are usually shorter than 50 km. Its distribution in Serbia is restricted to karstic areas in western and eastern parts of the country, with a lack of known roosts between them. In this study, microsatellite markers were used to evaluate genetic variation in this species in the Central Balkans. Specifically, spatial genetic structuring between geographic regions and relatedness within different colony types were assessed. All analysed loci were polymorphic, and there was no significant inbreeding coefficient recorded. A moderate degree of genetic differentiation among the sampled colonies was found, and significant isolation by distance was recorded. Our results revealed that populations show a tendency to segregate into three clusters. Unexpectedly, populations from Montenegro and Eastern Serbia tended to group into one cluster, while populations from Western Serbia and Slovenia represented second and third cluster, respectively. The majority of variance was partitioned within colonies, and only a small but significant portion among clusters. Average relatedness within colony members was close to zero, did not differ significantly between the different colony types, and kinship is unlikely to be a major grouping mechanism in this species.

AB  - Developmental stability (DS), along with canalization, represents an element of developmental
homeostasis (DH). DH is defined as the mechanism responsible for ensuring phenotypic
constancy in organisms despite the great variability of genetic and environmental features.
DS is usually measured by fluctuating asymmetry (FA) which refers to the minor, random
differences between the two sides in bilaterally symmetric traits. The factors that cause
FA can be either genetic or environmental in origin. In this study we used 276 mandibles
and 323 crania of adult yellow-necked mice (Apodemus flavicollis) featured by the frequent
presence of supernumerary B chromosomes (Bs). We investigated the associations between
developmental stability and susceptibility to nematode parasitism in this species in the
context of Bs presence or absence. In agreement with prevailing view that Bs are genomic
parasites, B carriers would possess lower level of DS, i.e. higher level of FA, compared to noncarriers.
We hypothesized that parasitized individuals should be more asymmetric as well.
By applying landmark-based geometric morphometrics, we estimated the levels of FA (FA10a
indices) for mandibular size and shape and cranial shape in non-parasitized B non-carriers
(NPB0), parasitized B non-carriers (PB0), non-parasitized B carriers (NPB+) and parasitized B
carriers (PB+). According to the hypotheses mentioned above, NPB0 mice would possess the
lowest FA10a indices. Although our results revealed no significant differences in the levels
of FA, NPB0 individuals are characterized by the lowest FA10a index for mandibular size, but
the highest FA10a index for cranial shape. Additionally, the similar levels of FA estimated for
PB0 and PB+ mice indicated that B chromosomes are not linked to developmental stability
and susceptibility to nematode parasitism in this species.

AB  - Water, being of critical importance for the survival of life on the planet, requires our permanent care and attention. There is a growing concern about the genotoxicity of complex environmental mixtures present in surface waters, due to the risk of genetic damage and cancer, both in aquatic organisms and humans. The present study focuses on exploring the status of water pollution in areas with combined industrial and agricultural activities in order to estimate the magnitude of toxicity and genotoxicity using the Allium test. We collected samples from the Sava and Danube rivers, upstream and downstream of Šabac (Sava River) and Smederevo (Danube River). In both rivers sampling was done in periods of low and high water levels. Levels of toxicity were low in both rivers, although the presence of organic pollution was seen from higher root mean length in all sample groups than in negative controls. The highest values of genotoxicity at locations upstream of both Šabac and Smederevo were obtained in samples collected in a period of high water level, but only the upstream sample from the Sava River had reached a significant level of genotoxicity. This can be explained as a consequence of intensive agricultural activities. Our results indicate that communal town and industrial wastewaters influence river water quality more significantly during low level regimes, while high water levels increase the risk of exposure to chemicals used in agriculture.

AB  - Water, being of critical importance for the survival of life on the planet, requires our
permanent care and attention. There is a growing concern about the genotoxicity of complex
environmental mixtures present in surface waters, due to the risk of genetic damage and
cancer, both in aquatic organisms and humans. Allium anaphase-telophase test has been
accepted as a promising tool to detect, among other things, toxicity and genotoxicity of river
water. The present study has focused on exploring the status of water pollution in areas
with combined industrial and agricultural activities in order to estimate the magnitude
of toxicity and genotoxicity using the Allium test. We collected samples of surface water
from the Sava River, upstream and downstream from the town of Šabaca nd at the Danube
River upstream and downstream from the town Smederevo. We analyzed using the Allium
anaphase-telophase test. In both rivers sampling was done in periods of low and high water
level. While at low water level genotoxicity was higher at points downstream of Šabaca nd
Smederevo, samples collected in periods of highwater level were more genotoxic upstream
from the towns. This can be explained as a consequence of agricultural activities.

AB  - Many morphologically similar species of the simuliid (Diptera: Simuliidae) subgenus Wilhelmia, Enderlein are difficult to distinguish. Thus, the revision of the subgenus using various morphological, cytogenetic, and genetic analyses has been attempted. Neglected until now, the Balkan Peninsula, a crossroad between Europe and Anatolia, provides insight which could resolve problematic interrelationships of the taxa within this subgenus. To uncover the status and relations within the subgenus Wilhelmia, mtDNA was extracted from 47 individuals of six morphospecies: Simulium balcanicum (Enderlein, 1924), Simulium turgaicum Rubtsov, 1940, Simulium lineatum (Meigen, 1804), Simulium pseudequinum Séguy, 1921, Simulium equinum (Linnaeus, 1758), and Simulium paraequinum Puri, 1933 from 21 sites throughout the Balkan Peninsula. Phylogenetic analysis of the Wilhelmia species using mitochondrial DNA barcoding (COI) gene showed two major branches, the lineatum branch, which includes the lineages sergenti, paraequinum, and lineatum, and the equinum branch. In the equinum branch, the mtDNA sequences formed six clades, with high genetic distances, suggesting the existence of different species. Historically, the clades of the equinum branch appeared at numerous islands, perhaps as a result of allopatric speciation. The paraequinum lineage (lineatum branch) is composed of two species. However, six clades of the lineatum lineage overlapped with intra- and interspecific genetic distances. Our results revealed that the species S. balcanicum, S. pseudequinum B, and S. equinum were omnipresent in the Balkans. The results point to not only the fair diversity of Wilhelmia species in the Balkans, but also indicate that most Wilhelmia species live in sympatry.

AB  - Arvicoline voles are known as a karyotypically extremely polymorphic group in which the genus Microtus leads with the highest rate of karyotype change. A member of this genus, the European pine vole Microtus subterraneus (de Selys-Longchamps, 1836), is widely distributed in Europe and parts of Asia. There are two cytotypes differing in diploid chromosome number, 2n=54 and 52, each showing different chromosomal polymorphisms. At two localities in southeastern Serbia, Mt. Jastrebac and Vlasina, we found the 2n=52 cytotype. Meiotic preparations from males revealed the presence of asynaptic sex chromosomes. Although asynaptic sex chromosomes are frequent in Microtus, this is the first finding for M. subterraneus. From summarized data it appears that two-thirds of the studied species, mainly from Microtus and Terricola subgenera, possess asynaptic sex chromosomes.

AB  - The yellow-necked mouse, Apodemus flavicollis, can be considered as a model for genetic polymorphism produced by the frequent presence of supernumerary or B chromosomes (Bs). Host genetic background is rarely taken into account in studies of parasite sex ratio. The main aim of this study was to investigate the range of infrapopulation sex ratios for nematode parasites of the yellow-necked mouse and to determine which factors most influence variation in parasite sex ratios. Six nematode species found in the collected yellow-necked mice were analysed. We confirmed the predominant pattern of female-biased sex ratios in vertebrate parasite infrapopulations. The presence of B chromosomes in host genomes played an important role in infrapopulations of Heligmosomoides polygyrus, Syphacia stroma and Trichuris muris, as hosts with B chromosomes carried a higher proportion of males. The relative increase of males in infrapopulations could result from a shift in parasite life history strategy, induced by adaptation to the specific host genotypes (Bs present). In a meta-analysis with previously published data, the sex determination system was demonstrated to play a significant role in nematode sex ratio variation, as well as specific life history patterns, such as the place of egg hatching.

AB  - Research in evolutionary biology has been progressively influenced by big data such as massive genome and transcriptome sequencing data, scalar measurements of several phenotypes on tens to thousands of individuals, as well as from collecting worldwide environmental data at an increasingly detailed scale. The handling and analysis of such data require computational skills that usually exceed the abilities of most traditionally trained evolutionary biologists. Here we discuss the advantages, challenges and considerations for organizing and running bioinformatics training courses of 2–3 weeks in length to introduce evolutionary biologists to the computational analysis of big data. Extended courses have the advantage of offering trainees the opportunity to learn a more comprehensive set of complementary topics and skills and allowing for more time to practice newly acquired competences. Many organizational aspects are common to any course, as the need to define precise learning objectives and the selection of appropriate and highly motivated instructors and trainees, among others. However, other features assume particular importance in extended bioinformatics training courses. To successfully implement a learning-by-doing philosophy, sufficient and enthusiastic teaching assistants (TAs) are necessary to offer prompt help to trainees. Further, a good balance between theoretical background and practice time needs to be provided and assured that the schedule includes enough flexibility for extra review sessions or further discussions if desired. A final project enables trainees to apply their newly learned skills to real data or case studies of their interest. To promote a friendly atmosphere throughout the course and to build a close-knit community after the course, allow time for some scientific discussions and social activities. In addition, to not exhaust trainees and TAs, some leisure time needs to be organized. Finally, all organization should be done while keeping the budget within fair limits. In order to create a sustainable course that constantly improves and adapts to the trainees’ needs, gathering short- and long-term feedback after the end of the course is important. Based on our experience we have collected a set of recommendations to effectively organize and run extended bioinformatics training courses for evolutionary biologists, which we here want to share with the community. They offer a complementary way for the practical teaching of modern evolutionary biology and reaching out to the biological community.

AB  - Introduction/Objective. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating motor neuron disease. The majority of cases are apparently sporadic ALS (SALS) with variants in susceptibility genes or sometimes in high-risk ALS genes. Two ALS susceptibility genes are SMN1, whose functional loss causes spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and a nearly identical SMN2 gene, which modulates SMA severity. In this study we examined the association of copy number variations (CNVs) of SMN1 and SMN2 genes and two additional genes, SERF1 and NAIP, residing in the same genomic region (i.e. 5q13.2 segmental duplication), with SALS in patients from Serbia. Methods. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification was used to determine CNVs of each gene in a clinically well-characterised group of 153 Serbian SALS patients and 153 controls. Results. Individual association between SMN1, SMN2, SERF1 or NAIP CNVs and SALS susceptibility or survival was not found. Survival curves based on the multivariable Cox regression analysis showed that three SMN1 copies, lower ALS Functional Rating Scale Revised (ALSFRS-R) score at the time of diagnosis, faster decline of the ALSFRS-R score over time, and shorter diagnostic delay result in shorter survival of Serbian SALS patients. Conclusion. Clinical variables might be complemented with the SMN1 copy number to improve prediction of survival in Serbian SALS patients.

AB  - Fifty-one yellow-necked mice from the Obedska bara locality were analysed for the presence of intestinal nematode parasites in order to assert whether there was a host sex bias in infection. Previous research indicated that males would be the more infected sex, either due to the immunosuppressive effect of testosterone or their different allocation of resources towards immune defence. Quantitative infection parameters were compared between host sexes for all nematode species and nematodes in general. In addition, the influence of host sex, age, total body length, body mass and presence of other nematode species on parasite abundance was analysed. No statistically significant differences between males and females were noted for any of the studied quantitative parameters, leading to an absence of sex-biased parasitism in this study.

AB  - Mediterranean horseshoe bat is considered to be mostly sedentary species, with seasonal movements usually shorter than 50 km. Known roosts of Rhinolophus euryale in Serbia are distributed in western and eastern parts of the country, overlapping with karst distribution. All but one roosts recorded in last 50 years were caves. The distance between caves in Western and Eastern Serbia is greater than 150 km, and the environment between them is devoid of caves. Furthermore, there were no recent records of this species from Central Serbia. Bearing in mind the non-migratory nature of this species, our aim was to test for population structuring (isolation by distance pattern) among different geographic regions.

AB  - Suicidal behavior has been associated with a deficient serotonin neurotransmission which is likely a consequence of individual genetic architecture, exposure to environmental factors and interactions of those factors. We examined whether the interaction of child abuse, TPH2 (tryptophan hydroxylase 2) variant rs4290270, affecting alternative splicing and editing of TPH2 pre-mRNAs, and ADARB1 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA B1) variants rs4819035 and rs9983925 may influence the risk for suicide attempt in psychiatric patients. TPH2 rs4290270 was genotyped in 165 suicide attempters and 188 suicide non-attempters diagnosed with major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Genotyping data for ADARB1 variants were taken over from our previous study. Child abuse before the age of 18 years was assessed using the Early Trauma Inventory-Self Report. Generalized linear models and backward selection were applied to identify the main and interacting effects of environmental and genetic factors, including psychiatric diagnoses, patients’ gender and age as covariates. Childhood general traumas were independently associated with suicide attempt. Two-way interaction between TPH2 rs4290270 and general traumas revealed that TT homozygotes with a history of general traumas had an increased risk for suicide attempt. Three-way interaction of general traumas, TPH2 rs4290270 and ADARB1 rs4819035 indicated that the highest predisposition to suicide attempt was observed in individuals who experienced general traumas and were TT homozygote for rs4290270 and TT homozygote for rs4819035. Our findings suggest that the risk for suicide attempt in psychiatric patients exposed to an adverse childhood environment may depend on TPH2 and ADARB1 variants.

AB  - Although polymorphism of the Y chromosome in bank vole, Myodes glareoulus, is a phenomenon
known for more than 40 years, few studies just pointing to the presence of different types of Y
chromosome, have been done since. Total of 113 males have been caught by live traps at 8 localities
from Serbia. Chromosome preparations were done from bone marrow and karyotypes were analyzed
for the presence of different types of Y chromosome. Two types of Y, metacentric and acrocentric, were

done to obtain further information about differences between noticed types of Y. In order to check is
there any dependence of variation in frequencies of metacentric Y and geographic parameters (latitude

of metacentric Y. Its frequency is increasing from North to South in a range from 0.11 to 1.0.

AB  - Up to six nematode species were identified from 86 specimens of the
   yellow-necked field mouse Apodemus flavicollis from three mountainous
   localities known as Avala, Cer and Liskovac in Serbia. The highest
   prevalence of infection of 97\% was recorded from Mt. Avala. Only one
   nematode species, Syphacia frederici, occurred in all three localities.
   There was complete overlap in nematode species from Mts. Avala and
   Liskovac, whereas the taxonomic distinctness of Mt. Cer was seen in the
   presence of the insect-transmitted species Rictularia proni. Locality
   was a statistically significant factor in all the best-fitted
   generalized linear models of variation in abundances. The highest level
   of both species richness and parasite alpha diversity (Shannon's H =
   1.47) was found in the easternmost Mt. Lisckovac, whereas the diversity
   indices were lowest for the westernmost Mt. Cer (Shannon's H = 0.48). In
   view of this geographical difference, the beta diversity indices were
   calculated along a west to east longitudinal gradient.

AB  - We studied the allelopathic potential of Nepeta rtanjensis Diklic and Milojevic essential oil and pure alpha- and beta-pinene on seed germination of 4-crops (Lepidium sativum L., Lactuca sativa L. cv. 'May Queen', Lotus corniculatus L. cv. Bokor and Brassica napus L. cv. napus) and 3-weed species (Stellaria media (L.) Vill., Rumex crispus L. and Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. ecotype Columbia). Nepetalactones are dominant compounds in essential oil of N. rtanjensis (88%), while alpha- and beta-pinene were present in low concentrations (3% and 0.4%, respectively). We found the species-specific and dose-dependent effects of essential oils and pure compounds on seed germination of test species. Among tested crops, L. sativa proved to be the most sensitive, while B. napus was most tolerant to both essential oil and pure monoterpenoids. S. media weed was the most susceptible, while R. crispus was most tolerant. Due to its high allelopathic potential, of nepetalactones, N. rtanjensis essential oil could be developed as promising natural bioherbicide to control weeds.

AB  - Cranial size and shape variation of the greater horseshoe bat
   Rhinolophus ferrumequinum from territories in Serbia and Montenegro was
   examined using geometric morphometric methods. Statistically significant
   size and shape differences among specimens from distinct geographic
   regions (the Carpatho-Balkanides, the Internal and External Dinarides)
   were observed. Bats from the Carpatho-Balkanides have the smallest
   crania, while those from the External Dinarides have the largest ones.
   Compared to specimens from the Carpatho-Balkanides, bats from the other
   two regions have crania wider in the temporal and elongated in the
   facial region, while the basicranial region is smaller. Our analysis of
   sexual size dimorphism revealed no statistically significant differences
   between males and females. Even though significant sexual shape
   dimorphism was observed, cranial shape differences among bats from
   different geographic regions exceeded those between sexes. We also found
   that size and shape vary with climatic factors. Allometry has
   statistically significant effect on cranial shape variation and somehow
   contributes to covariation between cranial shape and environmental
   variables. Although the examined bats were from a relatively small
   territory, we have provided new insights into important issues like
   geographic variation, sexual dimorphism and allometry in this species.

AB  - In genus Apodemus, the presence of B chromosome has been confirmed in six out of
twenty-two species. One of them is yellow-necked field mouse Apodemus flavicollis. The
presence of B chromosomes has been confirmed in almost all studied populations of A. flavicollis
46
in Serbia in a wide range of frequencies (0,07- 0,63). Five B chromosomes per animal was the
highest number of Bs recorded in our analyzed populations.
These extra chromosomes in A. flavicollis are euchromatic and acrocentric, and by size
and distribution of G- and C-bands can be sorted into the group of five smallest chromosomes in
karyotype.
The absence of Bs accumulation in male meiosis, no significant difference in the mean
number of scars and embryos between females with and without Bs, as well as the absence of
significant difference in the presence of Bs among six age categories, speaks in favor of heterotic
model of their maintenance, contrary to the model of parasitic behavior of these additional
genomic elements.
In general, the number of Bs carriers is higher in environment that is not optimal for this
species which indicates that those individuals have higher fitness. Seasonal variation of Bs
frequencies has been recorded, in such a manner that highest frequencies are present before and
after winter, with stable frequency fluctuations during successive years. Different frequency of Bs
carriers is related to adaptive differentiation to diverse habitats mediated by environmental
variables that directly and/or indirectly influence population dynamics of A. flavicollis. Changes
in frequency follow up increase in population density in circumstances without food and space
competition. Positive correlation between the frequency of Bs carriers and the average number of
sub zero days, as well as with altitude increase, has been recorded.
Considering phenotypic effects, higher level of morphological integration of mandible in
animals with Bs in A. flavicollis has been found. Furthermore, studies of the effects of Bs on
nonmetric cranial traits, as well as on three components of cranial variability confirmed that Bs
does not disturb developmental homeostasis in their carriers. Moreover, Bs play a significant role
in structuring cranial variation.
Negative correlation between the expression of Tgf-β gene and the presence of Bs was also
observed. This could be of great importance for B chromosome which has to pass through
different mitotic and meiotic check points, and Tgf-β gene, through cell cycle regulation,
influences development and homeostasis.
The existence of specific DNA profiles and differential expressions of three genes in the
presence of Bs, testify about interaction of Bs with the rest of the genome. Absence of C-KIT
exon 1 in more than one copy in specimens with 1, 2 and 3B chromosomes excludes the
possibility that this gene is present on Bs. On the other hand, presence of S18 gene copy has been
indicated on some Bs.
Considering the results of population studies, euchromatic structure of Bs and molecular
studies that have been conducted so far, we can say that the contribution of Bs to overall genetic
47
diversity in this species is in sight, but there is still need for more specific evidence such as
precise determination of Bs molecular structure, origin and function.

AB  - Golden jackal is considered a top predator in many human dominated
   landscapes of South-eastern Europe. Concentrations of seven trace
   elements (Pb, Cd, Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Ni) in livers of 129 specimens of
   golden jackals (Canis aureus) from six localities from Serbia were
   analysed. Both, sex and localities had no significant effects on
   concentrations of any metals. Lead concentrations, both average (9.59
   mg/kg) and maximal values (23.00 mg/kg), were higher than those found in
   other mammal predator species. Furthermore, concentrations of essential
   trace elements (copper, iron and manganese) were also significantly
   higher than those reported by other researchers. Only zinc had
   significantly lower concentration (66.36 mg/kg), while cadmium was
   similar (14.89 mg/kg) with those reported in the literature. The jackal,
   being a wild omnivorous mammal at the top of the food chain with high
   adaptability and other supportive ecological features, is a good
   bioindicator of environmental contamination.
