Reliable estimation of tree branch lengths using deep neural networks.

PLoS Computational Biology
A phylogenetic tree represents hypothesized evolutionary history for a set of taxa. Besides the branching patterns (i.e., tree topology), phylogenies contain information about the evolutionary distances (i.e. branch lengths) between all taxa in the tree,

Museomics Deciphers the Phylogeographic Differentiation and Conservation Status of a Montane Pheasant

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Museum specimens provide a rich source of historical DNA, enabling insights into phylogenetic relationships and demographic history of the endangered Koklass Pheasant. Our findings uncovered a previously unrecognized population in Guizhou province and highlighted elevated extinction risk in populations from Anhui province and Southern China, informing ...

Cenozoic Tectonics Ignite Mitochondrial Codon Innovations Propelling Canid Body Size Evolution and Transcontinental Radiations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We decode mitochondrial genomes across all extant canids, revealing lineage‐specific codon optimization driven by altitude, predation, and body size. A tripartite framework integrates geological events, metabolic constraints, and adaptive radiation to explain carnivore evolution.

Genomic Investigations Unveil the Genetic Underpinnings of Environmental Adaptation in African Goat Populations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study integrates genomics and landscape genetics to analyze African goat environmental adaptation. Analyzing 1591 samples, it finds population structure differentiates geographically into four groups, with gene flow between wild Yura goats and North Africans.

Characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of the complete mitochondrial genome of Erasmia pulchella Hope, 1840 (lepidoptera: zygaenidae)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
Erasmia pulchella has brightly colored wings and releases toxic cyanide as a defense against predation. At present, the molecular phylogenetic status of this species is still unclear.

Quantum‐Enhanced Weighted Gene Co‐Expression Network Analysis Reveals Regulatory Networks Underlying Sexual Size Dimorphism in Macrobrachium nipponense

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A quantum‐enhanced weighted gene co‐expression network analysis framework integrating quantum amplitude amplification is developed to overcome sample size constraints in zoological genomics. This noise‐tolerant analytical strategy enables robust network reconstruction for non‐model species with limited biological replicates.
