This study investigated how variations in the shape of the astragalus affect tarsal joint behavior, using CT scans. In artiodactyls with a double‐pulley astragalus, the calcaneus shifted plantarly during plantarflexion. This suggests the movement increases hindlimb functional length and contributes to enhanced running speed.

Twenty‐Year Progress in Landscape Genetics of Tetrapods
Geographic distribution of tetrapod landscape genetics between 2003 and 2025. ABSTRACT Landscape genetics, an interdisciplinary field integrating population genetics, landscape ecology, and spatial analytical techniques, has progressed significantly over two decades, yet systematic reviews of its application to tetrapods remain limited. Here, we review

Evolution of Acidic Mammalian Chitinase Gene (CHIA) is Related to Insectivory Feeding in Rodents
This study provides the first systematic investigation into the molecular evolution of the acidic mammalian chitinase (CHIA) gene across 37 rodent species with diverse diets. Results demonstrate that the CHIA gene has been lost or pseudogenized in obligate herbivores, while being maintained under purifying selection in chitin‐consuming lineages, with ...
