Species traits modulate ecological release in island red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae)

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We studied the species ability to undergo an ecological release process in the red devil spiders (Araneae: Dysderidae) when colonising species‐depauperate environments, focusing on different aspects of their niche. We have found that the ability to expand their niche is highly dependent on the species trophic strategy, with specialist species being ...

Are single nucleotide polymorphisms underutilized for guiding treatment of inflammatory bowel disease?

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) show variation in their response to therapeutics. This review explores the contrast between heritable single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that contribute the pathogenesis of IBD, versus those that associate with response to treatments.

A Similarity Matrix for Preserving Haplotype Diversity Amongst Parents in Genomic Selection

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In genomic selection, balancing genetic gain with the preservation of genetic diversity is a critical challenge, requiring innovative approaches to parent selection. Traditional methods risk losing valuable genetic diversity by not fully accounting for the complex patterns of haplotype distribution.

An Increase in Male Recombination Rate With Age in Dairy Cattle Is Heritable and Polygenic

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Meiotic recombination is an essential process for shuffling genetic diversity in sexually reproducing organisms, can vary within and between individuals in response to intrinsic and extrinsic factors, and can be heritable. Interestingly, recombination rate has been found to vary with age in some species, but to date, there have been no ...

Geographical Gradient of Fungal Decay Type in Norway Spruce Logs in Europe and Its Impact on Seedling Establishment

Journal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Norway spruce (Picea abies) is a dominant tree species across Eurasia, and is known to regenerate on decaying logs. Understanding its regeneration dynamics is crucial for predicting forest sustainability under climate change. The decay type of the logs, indicative of fungal decay capabilities of lignin and holocellulose and traditionally ...

Genomic Signatures of Ancient Vicariance in Host‐Specific Fungal Endophytes Across the Soltis Line in the Pacific Northwest

Journal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Foliar fungal endophytes are a highly diverse component of most plants, both in terms of taxonomic composition and function. Investigating the biogeography of these microbial symbionts in well‐studied regions complements our understanding of the patterns and processes already inferred for animals and plants.

Genomic Footprints of Ancient Multi‐Species Introgression Events Among Allopatric Australo‐Papuan Butcherbird Species

Journal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change has influenced the evolution of the world's biota, shaping species distributions, promoting diversification and causing extinctions. The turbulent climatic oscillations of the Pleistocene, which caused repeated periods of isolation and secondary contact, have left lasting signatures on the genomes of species across the world.

Trends in Early Larval Traits of a Global Invader at Home Across a Latitudinal Gradient: The European Shore Crab Carcinus maenas

Journal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim This study sets out to understand the variability in larval traits of dispersive life stages of a famous invader, the European shore crab Carcinus maenas, in its native distribution range. Location North East Atlantic coast from the Norwegian Arctic to the southern European distribution limit of C. maenas in Southern Spain.
