Additional PAX3 Variants for Dominant Blue Eyes in Cats

Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Since the recent publication of the first feline variant of the PAX3 (Paired Box 3) gene associated with blue eyes and minimal white spotting (DBE, Dominant Blue Eyes), three further variants of PAX3 have been reported in felines. However, these four variants do not account for all the different feline lines that exhibit DBE.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2119-2133, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

The costs of extra‐pair behaviours in birds

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2300-2312, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Extra‐pair behaviours – reproductive behaviours, including those related to copulation and paternity of offspring, amongst animals outside of a social pair bond – have long intrigued behavioural ecologists, particularly from the female animal's perspective.

Building phenotypic character matrices for phylogenetic inference: exploration of 35 years of practice

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2379-2407, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent methodological development in phylogenetic inference has focused predominantly on molecular data. However, renewed interest in other data types, particularly morphological data, has followed from the increased recognition of the power of total evidence and tip‐dating approaches, including fossil data, for inference of time‐scaled trees ...

Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain

Acta Zoologica, Volume 107, Issue 4, Page 385-408, October 2026.
ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

Leisure‐Time Physical Activity on Age‐Modelled Trajectories of Body Mass Index and Obesity Risk Throughout Life: Multivariable Regression and Mendelian Randomization Analyses Using Electronic Health Record Data From the CORDELIA‐Catalunya Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 10, Page 8925-8935, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aims To assess whether self‐reported leisure‐time physical activity, moderate‐to‐vigorous leisure‐time physical activity, and genetically determined cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with age‐related BMI trajectories and incident obesity. Methods We pooled 14 993 adults (30–90 years; 52.7% women; cohorts: REGICOR‐ACRISC, ILERVAS, ARTPER)
