Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.ABSTRACT Faster evolution of mitochondrial genomes relative to nuclear genomes creates selective pressure on nuclear genes involved in mitochondrial function to preserve mitonuclear compatibility required for energy production. In isolated populations, such coevolution occurs independently.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.By analyzing 277 anuran mitochondrial genomes, this study reconstructs a robust phylogeny for frogs and toads, tracing their origins to the Triassic and major radiations to the Cretaceous‐Neogene. The research identifies 58 distinct gene arrangement patterns, providing a novel evolutionary framework.

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2019 Avian communities from South America harbor an extraordinary diversity of Leucocytozoon species (Haemosporida, Leucocytozoidae). Here, of 890 birds sampled, 10 (1.2%) were infected with Leucocytozoon parasites. Among them, two new species were discovered

SwarmGenomics: A Unified Pipeline for Individual‐Based Whole‐Genome Analyses
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT Advances in sequencing technologies have made whole‐genome data widely accessible, enabling research in population genetics, evolutionary biology, and conservation. However, analysing whole‐genome sequencing (WGS) data remains challenging, often requiring multiple specialised tools and substantial bioinformatics expertise.

Combining morphological and molecular data to reconstruct the phylogeny of avian Haemosporida
, 2019 The traditional classification of avian Haemosporida is based mainly on morphology and life history traits. Recently, molecular hypotheses have challenged the traditional classification, leading to contradictory opinions on whether morphology is ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.We characterized complete mitochondrial genomes for nine keystone Neotropical raptors, including four threatened and five near‐threatened species, providing essential resources for phylogenetic and conservation studies. We also developed metabarcoding primers, enabling non‐invasive monitoring of Neotropical raptors via environmental DNA.

Marek’s Disease Virus Infection Induced Mitochondria Changes in Chickens
, 2019 Mitochondria are crucial cellular organelles in eukaryotes and participate in many cell processes including immune response, growth development, and tumorigenesis. Marek’s disease (MD), caused by an avian alpha-herpesvirus Marek’s disease virus (MDV), is

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.Environmental DNA metabarcoding detected consistent patterns in microhabitat use of fish species within lakes and tidal creeks. Although richness was similar among microhabitats, multivariate analyses revealed fine‐scale community differentiation aligned with known habitat preferences, demonstrating eDNA reveals habitat use at spatial scales of tens‐of‐
