3RAD‐Guided SNP Discovery for Species Identification and Conservation of the Medicinal Southern African Tree Genus Greyia Hook. & Harv.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

Impact of Model Parameterisation and Variance Component Estimates on Genomic Predictions of Carcass Traits in Montana Composite Cattle

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 3, Page 431-442, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the influence of variance component (VC) estimates, obtained from different models and two relationship matrices, pedigree‐based (BLUP) and genomic information‐based (ssGBLUP), on genomic predictions of carcass traits in Montana composite cattle.

Canine chronic idiopathic rhinitis: management and outcome – a single‐centre retrospective observational study

Journal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 67, Issue 5, Page 460-470, May 2026.
Objectives Canine chronic idiopathic rhinitis is a common cause of nasal disease in dogs but data reporting outcomes following treatment is lacking. The aim was to describe pre‐ and post‐referral management and outcomes of dogs diagnosed with canine chronic idiopathic rhinitis at a single referral centre.

Obesity Disrupts H3K4me3‐Mediated Lactate Accumulation and Efferocytosis in Hypoxic Macrophages

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.
Obesity disrupts macrophage adaptation to hypoxic microenvironments. In lean conditions, hypoxia induces H3K4me3‐dependent transcriptional programs that promote lactate accumulation, histone lactylation, and efficient efferocytosis. Diet‐induced obesity impairs this epigenetic–metabolic response, resulting in reduced lactate accumulation, defective ...

Pan‐3D Genome Analysis Reveals the Roles of Structural Variation in Chicken Chromatin Architectures, Domestication and Production Traits

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 24, 27 April 2026.
This study firstly presents a comprehensive and high‐resolution pan‐3D genome resource in chicken. Our findings reveal the role of structural variations in 3D genome architectures, and how they influence the domestication process and production traits at the 3D genome level.
