Growth‐regulating proteins differ between British seawater fish species, shedding light on their ecological adaptations

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Wnt proteins are a family of molecules that help control how cells grow, develop and communicate – processes that are fundamental to the development and health of all animals. Although Wnt pathways have been studied extensively in model species, very little is known about how they operate in marine fish.

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Serotypic and Genomic Diversity of Vibrio anguillarum in Rainbow Trout Farms in Turkey: Implications for Vibriosis Control and Vaccine Candidate Selection

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Outbreaks of vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum are a persistent constraint on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture. However, information on the population structure of field strains in Turkey has been lacking. Here, we report the first systematic serotypic, proteomic, and genomic characterization of 23 V.

Claiming the Isle? Islandness and Territorial Demands

open access: yesNations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the relationship between insularity and territorial demands, focusing on whether island territories are more likely to support regionalist and secessionist parties. To address this question, we compare electoral support for such parties across island and mainland territories using a large‐N dataset.
