ASIP Variants in Livestock: It's Not Black and White

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Fur and feather pigmentation play an important role in the survival and reproduction of many species, as well as in selective breeding and agriculture. The synthesis of pigment molecules, eumelanin and pheomelanin, is partially regulated by the agouti signalling protein (ASIP) encoded by the ASIP gene.

Proteins of the Vitelline Membrane of Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) Eggs

Poultry Science, 1993
Proteins in the vitelline membrane of quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) eggs were analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Ten major bands, molecular mass ranging from 14.5 to 285 kDa, can be clearly distinguished. Two bands corresponding to the molecular masses of 33 and 175 kDa were detected in the inner layer of the membrane and both were stained with periodic acid ...

Candling Analysis of Egg Development in an Endangered Bird Species Crested Ibis (Nipponia nippon)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using candling images from 98 eggs, we present the first detailed description of egg and embryonic development in the endangered crested ibis. We identify diagnostic features of nonviable eggs and reveal that embryo mortality is concentrated during mid‐incubation and shortly before hatching. These findings provide a standardized reference for assessing

Epigenetic Aging in Brain Tissue of the Self‐Fertilizing Vertebrate, Kryptolebias marmoratus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using the self‐fertilizing vertebrate Kryptolebias marmoratus, we developed an epigenetic clock from brain tissue that predicts chronological age with high accuracy, demonstrating that DNA methylation changes consistently with age even in the near absence of genetic variation. The 40 age‐associated CpG sites identified map to genes with conserved roles

Genome Mining Approaches for Toxicant Discovery: A Case Study Examining Receptor Proteins for Pest Management in New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Pest control is a global challenge for agriculture and biodiversity conservation, with the use of existing vertebrate pesticides increasingly constrained by regulatory, environmental, and social pressures. There is an urgent need for safer and more species‐selective toxicants, but the development of novel vertebrate pesticides remains technically ...
