Morphology and development of the baculum in harbour seals (Phoca vitulina)

open access: yesJournal of Zoology, EarlyView.
This study examines the ontogenetic changes in the morphology of the penis bone in the harbour seal, focusing on the implications for sexual maturity and reproductive function. A large comparative dataset of approx. 300 genital bones from 1 year to over 20 years of age was used for analyses.

Using X‐ray computed microtomography (μCT) to determine subsample‐specific cosmogenic noble gas production rates of E (enstatite) chondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 442-463, March 2025.
Abstract Cosmic ray exposure (CRE) ages provide information about the parent bodies and source regions of meteorite classes. Cosmogenic noble gases are often used to quantify exposure time scales ranging from tens of ka to hundreds of Ma. The production rate of cosmogenic noble gases is primarily controlled by a meteorite's chemical composition ...

An Early‐Life Disruption of Gut Microbiota Has Opposing Effects on Parasite Resistance in Two Host Species

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gut microbiota regulate multiple aspects of host health, including metabolism and the development of the immune system. However, we still know relatively little about how the gut microbiota influences host responses to parasitism in wild organisms, particularly whether host‐microbiota interactions contribute to variation in parasitism across ...

The Flagellin‐Specific Chaperone FliS of Borrelia burgdorferi Controls the Cytoplasmic Pool of Flagellins at the Level of Translation Initiation, Secretion, and Proteolysis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
FliS, a flagellin protein chaperon of the Lyme disease pathogen Borrelia burgdorferi, controls the cytoplasmic pool of flagellins (FlaB) at the level of translation initiation, secretion, and proteolysis. Deletion of fliS blocks FlaB secretion and translation initiation through a pattern‐switching mechanism of FliS‐FlaB‐FliW/CsrA. Therefore, the mutant
