Transition From Land to Sea: Comparative Genomics Illuminates the Adaptive Evolution of the Intertidal Spider

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Use of molecular markers contribute to the identification of priority coconut accessions in the framework of the global strategy for conservation and use of coconut genetic resources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To assist germplasm management using molecular markers, we propose here a method to be used in conjunction with geographic and phenotypic information. It can be used to evaluate the number of accessions that need to be reproduced as safety duplication or

Hawksbill turtles in Korean waters: Occurrence records, tracking, and conservation considerations

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
In Korean waters, diverse efforts, including rescue, rehabilitation, and post‐release satellite tracking, has been conducted to conserve and restore hawksbill turtles. Hawksbill turtles showed three movement patterns and a potential migratory corridor linking Jeju Island to Hainan Island, southern China.

Transmembrane Protein GbTMEM209 Inhibits Fibre Elongation via Competitive Interaction With GbHOX3 in Gossypium barbadense

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3087-3105, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sea Island cotton (Gossypium barbadense) produces premium‐quality fibres, yet the genetic basis underlying its fibre development remains elusive. Here, we identify two key non‐synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, G/C and G/A) in the gene Gbar_D13G024080, which encodes the TRANSMEMBRANE PROTEIN 209 (TMEM209). These SNPs resulted in

Atrocalopteryx melli orohainani ssp. nov. on the Island of Hainan, China (Zygoptera: Calopterygidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The new sp. is described from the mountain core of Hainan, southern China, where it usually occurs at altitudes not lower than 300 m asl. It lives on the same type of small, shaded rivers as the nominate ssp. on the continent, and is distinguished by its

Molecular Phylogeny, Species Delimitation, and Biogeography of the Varunid Crab Genus Metaplax (Crustacea, Varunidae)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 504-518, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Indo‐West Pacific genus Metaplax comprises 11 recognised species inhabiting intertidal mudflats, some adjacent to mangroves. To resolve long‐standing uncertainties, we analysed mitochondrial (COI, 16S) and nuclear (28S) markers. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Metaplax as monophyletic and resolved four well‐supported clades—the M ...
