Environmental Drivers on Blue Tit Nest Microbiome: An Experimental Study

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
Elevated humidity and temperature altered nest microbial composition and its associations with parasitism and nestling condition. These findings identify nest microclimate as an important driver of nest microbiomes with consequences for avian development.

Genetic Diversity of the Beta‐Casein Gene in Brown Swiss and Creole Cattle From the Peruvian Highlands

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cattle's milk and derivatives are essential for human nutrition. However, up to 90% of people experience gastrointestinal discomfort after consumption. Milk digestibility depends on its protein composition. Casein, about 80% of milk proteins, includes beta‐casein (CSN2) with two variants: A1 and A2. The A1 variant is linked to gastrointestinal

A Breed‐Specific SNP Panel With Higher Theoretical Exclusion Power and Practical Equivalence to International Standards for Parentage Testing in Pura Raza Española Horses

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate parentage assignment is essential for managing livestock breeding and genetic improvement. This study evaluated a breed‐specific SNP panel (375 SNPs) for the Pura Raza Española (PRE) horse, comparing its performance against the traditional STR reference panel (18 microsatellite) and the international ISAG SNP core panel (378 SNPs ...

Culture Optimization of the IPEC–J2 Piglet Jejunum Cell Line for Applications in Infant Nutrition Research

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
IPEC–J2 cell line is derived from piglet jejunal cells. Four different culture media were assessed for their ability to support IPEC‐J2 differentiation into an in vitro gut barrier. PS10 media proved most successful. Once differentiated with PS10, the IPEC‐J2 barrier was sufficiently robust for treatment with digested infant food. This demonstrates the

Mexican Freshwater Fish: Identifying Conservation Priorities and High‐Risk Areas for Fisheries Under Climate Change

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish are essential components of aquatic ecosystems, providing key ecological functions and supporting livelihoods. Climate change poses a significant threat to freshwater biodiversity; consequently, both its conservation and the food security it sustains may be at risk.

Telomere Length Is Determined by Intrinsic Factors and Is Shortened During Drought Years in Gallotia galloti

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Telomere dynamics in ectotherms remain poorly understood relative to endotherms, yet are increasingly relevant in the context of climate change. Here, we used model‐averaged GLMMs and hierarchical partitioning to disentangle intrinsic and extrinsic drivers of relative telomere length in the Western‐Canaries Lizard (Gallotia galloti) across a 10‐year ...
