Innovative Field Applications of Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Medicinal Plant Products for Disease Control in Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.

Ontogenetic Development of Hyperostosis in the Crevalle Jack Caranx hippos (Linnaeus, 1766) and New Records of Affected Bone Regions

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyperostosis is a non‐pathological condition widely reported in marine teleosts, yet its developmental dynamics and underlying drivers remain poorly understood. This study investigates the ontogenetic progression and anatomical distribution of hyperostosis in Caranx hippos based on a growth series of 39 specimens collected along the Brazilian ...

Functional morphology and biomechanics of the locomotor apparatus in the large Late Triassic carnivore Postosuchus kirkpatricki (Archosauria: Rauisuchidae)

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
A three‐dimensional model is used to analyze the locomotor biomechanics of the large Late Triassic archosaurian reptile Postosuchus kirkpatricki. The study finds that it is more uncertain than previously concluded whether it was quadrupedal or bipedal, and plantigrade or digitigrade, but it clearly had locomotor specializations including large hindlimb

Analysis of Essential Minerals and Heavy Metals in Canine and Feline Dietary Supplements Marketed in the United States

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy metals have been documented in dietary supplements for people and animals. Cadmium, selenium, lead, and mercury are of particular concern. Our objective was to determine the concentrations of five essential minerals and 12 heavy metals in 70 canine and feline dietary supplements, and to evaluate potential toxicity risks.

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

The roads most traveled: genetic convergence in plant repeated evolution

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Observation of a genotype–phenotype association in a focal lineage (magnifying lens) provides a starting point for predicting homolog reuse during repeated trait evolution. This review suggests that the likelihood that mutations in homologous genes contribute to similar phenotypes in other lineages depends on both mutational effect stability (MES) and ...

Trichomes in Plant Defence, Development and Metabolic Integration Under Environmental Stress

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among various plant defence strategies, trichomes are tiny hair‐like structures on the epidermis that aid in defence, environmental adaptation and the production of valuable secondary metabolites. This review features trichomes as frontline guards for plant survival, integrating their structural, physiological and metabolic roles in ...

Diel net CO2 exchange of carnivorous Pinguicula is consistent with low‐level CAM photosynthesis

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In carnivorous butterworts (Pinguicula), CO2 uptake occurs primarily in the light via C3 photosynthesis, yet low‐level CAM photosynthesis, including net CO2 dark fixation, significantly improves the carbon balance of plants, especially under water‐deficit conditions.

Tooth eruption status and bite force determine dental microwear texture gradients in albino rats (Rattus norvegicus forma domestica)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2411-2423, September 2026.
Abstract Dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) is widely applied for inferring diet in vertebrates. Besides diet and ingesta properties, factors like wear stage and bite force may affect microwear formation, potentially leading to tooth position‐specific microwear patterns.
