The genome sequence of the greater two-lined sac-winged bat Saccopteryx bilineata, Temminck, 1838 (Emballonuridae, Emballonurinae) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Saccopteryx bilineata (Chordata; Mammalia; Chiroptera; Emballonuridae). The genome sequence is 2.62Gb in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules, with the X

The Seasonal Rhythms of Coastal eDNA: Insights Into Biodiversity and Regional Detection Patterns

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Seasonal variation affects environmental DNA (eDNA) detection, yet its influence on species monitoring remains underexplored. This study examines eDNA detection windows across taxa, primers, and regions, finding that most species have short detection periods (1–2 months) that vary with taxonomy and primer choice. These results underscore the importance

The evolution of the dystroglycan complex, a major mediator of muscle integrity [PDF]

, 2015
Basement membrane (BM) extracellular matrices are crucial for the coordination of different tissue layers. A matrix adhesion receptor that is important for BM function and stability in many mammalian tissues is the dystroglycan (DG) complex.

Comparing Sediment and Water eDNA Metabarcoding for Monitoring Aquatic Biodiversity in a Plateau Lake

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Using multi‐locus eDNA metabarcoding of sediment and water samples collected from a plateau lake, this study systematically compared taxonomic diversity and community composition between the two sample types across the tree of life from archaea to mammals.

Description of a New Species of Eusynstyela (Ascidiacea: Stolidobranchia) from Okinawa, Japan with Molecular Insight into Its Phylogenetic Position

Species Diversity
The colonial styelid genus Eusynstyela Michaelsen, 1904 comprises 12 species. Seven colonies of Eusynstyela were collected via SCUBA diving from three coastal sites in Okinawa, Japan, between 2018 and 2023.

A putative chordate luciferase from a cosmopolitan tunicate indicates convergent bioluminescence evolution across phyla

Scientific Reports, 2020
Pyrosomes are tunicates in the phylum Chordata, which also contains vertebrates. Their gigantic blooms play important ecological and biogeochemical roles in oceans. Pyrosoma, meaning “fire-body”, derives from their brilliant bioluminescence.
