Opportunistic Feeding and Parasite Assemblages in Sei Whales (Balaenoptera borealis) From Southern Chile Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study represents the first metabarcoding‐based description of prey composition and parasite‐associated taxa in stranded sei whales from southern South America. ABSTRACT Balaenopterid whales are major consumers in pelagic ecosystems and play a fundamental role in marine food webs.

The cephalopod fishery at Cochin, Kerala [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The Cochin Fisheries Harbour is a major fish landing centre in Kerala. Cephalopod landings at this centre contribute about 11-23% of Kerala's annual cephalopod catch. They are landed as bycatch by shrimp trawlers which operate off Cochin upto 60 m depth.

Responses of Antarctic seabird populations to past climate change

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Higher‐order predators such as Antarctic seabirds serve as ecological indicators of environmental change and provide a crucial trophic link between marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their prevalence and significance in the Antarctic ecosystem, there is a lack of understanding of the impacts of major regime shifts in paleoclimate on flighted ...

Distinctive gene expression in the reduced first thoracic legs of a nymphalid butterfly

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 504-516, October 2026.
Transcriptome analysis reveals that the small non‐walking front legs of a butterfly have distinct gene expression to the four walking legs. Reduced front legs express a gene with putative mechanosensory roles, a blue‐sensitive opsin and two homeobox genes.

The Digestive Tract of Cephalopods: Toward Non-invasive In vivo Monitoring of Its Physiology

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2017
Ensuring the health and welfare of animals in research is paramount, and the normal functioning of the digestive tract is essential for both. Here we critically assess non- or minimally-invasive techniques which may be used to assess a cephalopod's ...

A Spontaneous Mutation in tfoX Impairs Bioluminescence in Photobacterium kishitanii ANT‐2200

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 126, Issue 4, Page 343-350, October 2026.
A frameshift mutation in tfoX generates a truncated regulator associated with reduced lux–rib expression and low luminescence. Complementation with wild‐type tfoX restores transcription and light production, supporting a role for TfoX in regulating bioluminescence independently of quorum sensing.
