Hox Gene Variation Drives Morphological Specialization of Humpback Grouper Cromileptes altivelis

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Cromileptes altivelis exhibits a distinctive “sunken head and humpback” morphology, formed through cranial remodeling. Genetic analyses identified unique amino acid variants in Hoxa7a and Hoxa10b, with functional tests confirming their role in enhancing osteoblast activity and driving cranial remodeling.

Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.

Do Key Audit Matters in Hong Kong and Mainland China Provide Incremental Information and Improve Audit Quality? Les questions clés de l'audit à Hong Kong et en Chine continentale fournissent‐elles des renseignements supplémentaires et améliorent‐elles la qualité de l'audit?

Contemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine the adoption of expanded audit reports that include key audit matters (KAMs) in Hong Kong (2016) and mainland China (2017). These jurisdictions are highly integrated and together constitute one of the largest economies to adopt the IAASB's reporting standards in a staggered fashion, while also differing in investor protection and ...

Forecasting ecological trajectories from ecological dynamic regimes to improve resilience analysis

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The ecological dynamic regime (EDR) framework was recently proposed as an alternative to equilibrium‐based approaches for assessing ecological resilience in empirical systems, explicitly incorporating dynamic regimes as a reference for assessing the system's deviation during disturbances.

Rise of the south: How Arab‐led maritime trade transformed China, 671–1371 CE

Asia‐Pacific Economic History Review, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 3-38, March 2025.
Abstract China's center of socioeconomic activities was in the North prior to the Tang dynasty but is in the South today. We demonstrate that Arab and Persian Muslim traders triggered that transition when they came to China in the late seventh century, by lifting maritime trade along the South Coast and re‐creating the South.
