Island invertebrate responses to single‐ and multi‐species invasive rodent eradications
Eradications of rodents on islands are a powerful tool for conservation, but rarely are the responses of invertebrates quantified post‐eradication, despite being the preferred prey of mice. Here we analyzed pre‐ and post‐eradication invertebrate survey results for two sub‐Antarctic islands where mice had recently been eradicated; Antipodes Island where

A nowcast model to predict outdoor flea activity in real time for the contiguous United States
Background The cat flea (Ctenocephalides felis), a parasite commonly found on both dogs and cats, is a competent vector for several zoonotic pathogens, including Dipylidium caninum (tapeworms), Bartonella henselae (responsible for cat scratch disease ...

Ploidy‐dependent modulation of DNA replication kinetics in Xenopus
Using an interspecies replication system with Xenopus frog species of different ploidy levels, we investigated how DNA replication adapts to polyploidization. While replication was slower in tetraploid than in diploid nuclei, dodecaploid nuclei unexpectedly replicated faster than tetraploid nuclei. Our findings show that increasing genome size does not

Breaking the ice: multiple origins of ice‐binding/antifreeze proteins
Ice‐binding proteins (IBPs) evolved independently in many organisms during Cenozoic cooling and glaciation. In flounders, α‐helical IBPs evolved from an antiviral protein, while similar IBPs arose independently from different progenitors in three other fish lineages.

Flea species infesting dogs in Spain: updated spatial and seasonal distribution patterns
This entomological survey examines the spatial and seasonal distribution patterns of flea species infesting dogs in Spain. Bioclimatic zones covering broad climate and vegetation ranges were surveyed according to size. In a cross-sectional spatial survey

A longitudinal study of avian pox in a small passerine, the Dunnock (Prunella modularis)
Long‐term, longitudinal studies of disease in wild bird populations are rare. Diseases are important determinants of bird survival and may spill‐over into other species including livestock and, in some cases, humans. Avian pox is a globally distributed disease, resulting from infection by viruses in the genus Avipoxvirus (APV).

Host associations are primary drivers of genomic divergence, with clear phylogenetic separation observed between strains associated with Hypera and Sitona weevil hosts. Genomic diversity aligns with reproductive modes: sexually reproducing ancestral lineages maintain high heterozygosity, while derived asexual strains exhibit reduced heterozygosity and ...
