Higher Genetic Diversity Across Several Small Patches Compared to a Single Large Patch: A Within‐Species Test of SLOSS

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT The SLOSS (Single Large or Several Small) debate is crucial in reserve design, focusing on evaluating the conservation efficacy of a single large reserve versus multiple small reserves for species preservation. While accumulating evidence suggests that multiple small reserves may conserve greater species diversity, the question of how to ...

Combining ability and heterosis in partial resistance to gray leaf spot in elite maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract Six sets of 48 maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines, and their 96 single crosses generated using the North Carolina Mating Design II system, were evaluated for resistance to gray leaf spot (GLS). The aim of the study was to assess the implications of combining ability, heterotic effects, and potence ratio in breeding for GLS resistance in maize ...

Elamipretide Improves Mitochondrial Function in Mitochondrial Trifunctional Protein‐Deficient Mice and Human Fibroblasts

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (TFP) deficiency is an inherited disorder of long‐chain fatty acid β‐oxidation (FAO). TFP is a heteromeric enzyme composed of two α and two β‐subunits. Despite early detection and dietary treatment, TFP deficiency patients often develop hypoglycemia, rhabdomyolysis, cardiomyopathy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Hepatitis C Virus Saint Petersburg Variant Detection With Machine Learning Methods

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 97, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus infection is a significant global health concern, affecting millions worldwide. Although direct‐acting antivirals achieve over 90% success rate, treatment failures still occur, particularly when pan‐genotypic DAAs are unavailable, and drugs need to be chosen based on the present HCV genotype.
