EVOLUTION OF THE CIRCADIAN CLOCK IN EXTREME ENVIRONMENT: LESSONS FROM CAVEFISH. [PDF]
, 2010 Evolution has been strongly influenced by the daily cycles of temperature and light imposed by the rotation of the Earth. Fascinating demonstrations of this are seen in extreme environments such as caves where some animals have remained completely ...

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 6, December 2025.Abstract Zootechnical additives are widely used in animal diets to enhance health and performance throughout different production stages. This study evaluated the effects of a blend of synbiotic and organic acids on Nile tilapia fingerlings. The investigation assessed growth performance, enzyme activity, proximate composition, and tissue histology.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.Karst regions exhibit ecologically fragile environments but host a rich diversity of microhabitats across spatial scales. Vegetation productivity and carbon sequestration patterns are intricately governed by subterranean microhabitat conditions. Microhabitat‐based technologies demonstrate transformative potential in reconciling human livelihoods with ...

Brain Transcriptomics Reveals Molecular Mechanisms of Cave Adaptation in Triplophysa Loaches
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.This study compares brain transcriptomes of cave (Triplophysa shilinensis) and surface‐dwelling (T. xiangshuingensis) loaches to uncover molecular adaptations to subterranean life. We identified widespread gene down‐regulation in the cave ecotype, with enriched pathways in energy metabolism, circadian rhythms, sensory perception, and body coloration ...

From Genomic Fossils to Functional Elements: The Evolving Story of Pseudogenes
Advanced Genetics, Volume 6, Issue 4, December 2025.This review begins with an introduction, summarizing the research background in pseudogene studies. It then contains three aspects: identification of pseudogenes, detailing their classification and features in metazoan genomes; functional pseudogenes, introducing their reactivation and regulation mechanisms; and pseudogenes’ contribution to species ...

Diversity, 2020 Animals in many phyla are adapted to and thrive in the constant darkness of subterranean environments. To do so, cave animals have presumably evolved mechano- and chemosensory compensations to the loss of vision, as is the case for the blind characiform ...
