Genomic Variants Associated With Oocyte and Embryo Production in Dairy Gir Cattle
Animal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 2, April 2026.ABSTRACT The use of in vitro fertilization protocols associated with genomic selection increases genetic gain in dairy cattle. The aims of this study were to uncover genetic variants in a specific interval on BTA7 and to investigate their effects on the number of oocytes and embryos in dairy Gir.

The evolution of the natural killer complex; a comparison between mammals using new high-quality genome assemblies and targeted annotation. [PDF]
, 2017 Natural killer (NK) cells are a diverse population of lymphocytes with a range of biological roles including essential immune functions. NK cell diversity is in part created by the differential expression of cell surface receptors which modulate ...

The Role of Dopamine Signaling and Neuroinflammation in Age‐Related Cognitive Dysfunction
Brain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.We reveal early disruption in synaptic integrity (PSD‐95, synaptophysin, BDNF), increased dopamine clearance (Comt, Net), and inflammatory signaling (Nfkb, Socs3) in the PFC, while the hippocampus remains largely resistant. These molecular “warning signs” precede behavioral deficits, highlighting potential targets for early intervention to protect ...

Wolf Presence Disrupts Seasonal Variation in Hair Cortisol Among Free‐Ranging Beef Cattle
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Predators exert indirect effects on prey populations beyond direct predation, but how predator reintroduction restructures prey physiology remains poorly understood. Using hair cortisol analysis in cattle exposed versus unexposed to wolves, we found that wolf presence disrupted normal seasonal cortisol regulation patterns.

Zone Matcher: A climate‐based web application for deployment and assisted migration of forest trees
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Populations of forest trees are generally adapted to the climates they inhabit. The farther trees are moved from their local climates, the more long‐term growth and survival tend to decrease. Current tree deployment and assisted migration rely on “climate distance thresholds” (CDTs), which are climatic distances beyond which tree performance ...
