Is the Cognitive Ability of Fawn‐Footed Mosaic‐Tailed Rat Melomys cervinipes Offspring Related to Mothers’ Care or Cognitive Abilities?

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 7, Page 785-794, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The cognitive abilities of many non‐human animals have been investigated in recent years; however, outside of laboratory rodent strains, it is largely unknown how direct and indirect genetic factors influence the development of cognition. In a previous study, we found no impact of maternal genetic or non‐genetic effects on problem solving in ...

CardiacDP: An R package for rapid automated cardiac data processing, integrating autocorrelation, a genetic algorithm, and a tracking index

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Heart rate is a popular proxy of physiological responses, but the highly complex and variable cardiac data obtained from organisms such as marine invertebrates pose a major challenge to efficient and accurate data processing. To address this, we developed a novel, integrative algorithm for rapid and automated cardiac data processing.

Social information about others' affective states in a human‐altered world

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1311-1325, August 2026.
Faced with anthropogenic change, animals now encounter challenges different from their evolutionary past. To cope with such challenges, animals may use social information about others' affective states to guide their decisions. Considering affective states of wild animals could have important implications for animal welfare and wildlife conservation ...

Leukocyte profiles reveal sex and age differences in immune investment in a polygynous bat

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 95, Issue 8, Page 1453-1463, August 2026.
Analysis of over 500 blood cell profiles, including repeat samples over four years, reveals that male bats from a long‐lived species with a polygynous mating system invest more in innate than adaptive immunity. Investment in innate immunity increases with age, as estimated by a DNA methylation clock and mark‐recapture data.

Pre‐Clinical Development of Two DNA Vaccines Encoding MrkA of Klebsiella pneumoniae: Effect of Plasmid Backbone on Immunogenicity and Protective Efficacy Against Sepsis

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2026.
Pre‐clinical development of two DNA vaccines encoding the MrkA fimbrial subunit of Klebsiella pneumoniae using different plasmid backbones: pVAX1 (commercial) and PLASMIVAX (with additional CpG motifs). Both DNA vaccine candidates expressed the antigen in eukaryotic cells but differed in their immunogenicity and protective efficacy against sepsis in ...
