Targeting Myostatin for Sustainable Meat Production: Insights From Multiple Species

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Myostatin gene (MSTN), a TGF‐β superfamily member, negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth, positioning it as a prime genetic target for enhancing livestock meat production. This review synthesizes evidence from 1979 to 2025 on MSTN mutations across cattle, pigs, poultry, sheep, goats, and rabbits, emphasising impacts on yield, quality ...

The spread of non‐native species

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

The King in the Crosshairs: Evidence of a Predation Attempt on European Bison by Wolves

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
To our knowledge, we present the first video‐recorded evidence of wolves attacking a European bison herd in the BPF. The European bison, often referred to as the king of the forest, is generally described as a non‐prey species, but historical data and our recent documented observation provide clear evidence that they can be subjected to wolf predation.

Recent advances in boar semen cryopreservation

, 2009
Since 35 years ago boar semen has been frozen and used for artificial insemination (AI). However, fertility of cryopreserved porcine sperm has consistently been low as boar sperm are more sensitive to cellular stress imposed by changing osmotic balance ...

Intra‐ and Interspecific Spatial Temporal Interactions Drive Habitat Selection of Three Sympatric Top Predators

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The population distribution and habitat selection of top predators are critically important for species conservation and habitat management. While previous studies have identified environmental characteristics and food resources as factors influencing animal habitat selection, the roles of potential intra‐ and interspecific competition have ...

Liproxstatin-1 improves boar sperm quality during in vitro liquid preservation at 17°C, associated with reduction of oxidative stress and ferroptosis markers

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
ObjectiveThe plasma membrane of boar sperm is notably enriched in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). During extended liquid storage of boar semen at 17°C, reactive oxygen species (ROS) derived from lipid peroxidation progressively accumulate within ...
