Charting the landscape of the environmental exposome
We describe the biological and chemical components of the environmental exposomes in three major environmental matrices that are highly relevant to human and social‐economical health—air, soil, and water. We discuss how different exposome components can interact with each other. Finally, we propose a list of outstanding challenges to be tackled to push

Helmeted hornbill cranial kinesis: Balancing mobility and stability in a high‐impact joint
Abstract Prokinesis—in which a craniofacial joint allows the rostrum to move relative to the braincase—is thought to confer diverse advantages in birds, mostly for feeding. A craniofacial joint would, however, be a weak link if cranial stability is important. Paradoxically, we have identified a craniofacial joint in helmeted hornbills (Rhinoplax vigil),

IPGA: A handy integrated prokaryotes genome and pan‐genome analysis web service
Integrated Prokaryotes Genome and pan‐genome Analysis (IPGA) serves as a free and easy‐to‐use web‐based system that could provide up‐to‐date pan‐genome analysis service for non‐bioinformaticians. IPGA offers users the most reliable pan‐genome profile which enables users to perform additional comparative genomic analysis.

Abstract Diet is one of a limited set of key ecological parameters defining primate species. A detailed understanding of dental functional correlates with primate diet is a key component for accurate dietary inference in fossil primates. Although considerable effort has been devoted to understanding post‐canine dental function, incisor function remains

Over two decades of research on the marine RNA virosphere
Advances in meta‐omics provide a surge of marine RNA virus information. Deep marine virus discovery contributes greatly to the megataxonomy of RNA viruses. Understanding diversity and biogeography helps reveal the significance of marine RNA viruses, including evolutionary trajectories, hierarchical taxonomy, and ecological importance.

Abstract The Weberian apparatus is a hearing specialization unique to the otophysan fishes, and an unexpected degree of morphological variation exists in species of the Noturus catfishes. Our aim in this study is to investigate relationships between morphological variations and ecology that may drive this variation.

Novel RNA viruses in oysters revealed by virome
Eighteen novel RNA viruses were found in Crassostrea hongkongensis. Phylogenic analysis shows evidence of recombination between major genes of viruses. Picobirnaviruses are ubiquitous and abundant in oysters.
