Placental crises: disruptive selection and maternal under‐investment as the foundations of mammalian placental evolution and dysfunction

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1627-1640, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Among the vertebrates, mammals are notable for the dominance of live birth and placental nutrition. The structural diversity of the mammalian placenta is remarkable, despite sharing a single common ancestor and conserved physiological functions.

The Association between Hypoperfused Myocardium and Systolic Function in Patients With AMI Undergoing Complete Revascularization

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hypoperfused myocardium was detected in portions of acute myocardial infarction patients undergoing complete revascularization by hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance at 2 months. Patients with hypoperfused myocardium (Group A) had higher hs‐CRP and lower T2 values than those without (Group B). The reversal of myocardial perfusion was

Frozen and Scorched: Genomic Signatures of Adaptive Divergence and Hibernation in the Living Fossil Dromiciops

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We evaluated adaptation to torpor and hibernation in the genus Dromiciops by comparing it with both torpid and non‐torpid marsupials, and investigated divergent selection signals between its two species. For the ancestral node, we identified positive selection in the genes PFKFB2, LAMP3, OTX1, and RAPSN, alongside an enrichment of pathways potentially ...

Estivation Strategies of Invasive Snail Pomacea canaliculata in Paddy Fields: Roles of Gut Microbiota and Digestive Gland Metabolism

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
During the summer fallow period, Pomacea canaliculata enters estivation under high temperature and drought stress yet maintains a survival rate exceeding 92%. Restructuring of the gut microbiota and metabolic adaptations in the liver, particularly the stability of fatty acid profiles, underpin its strong estivation tolerance.

Beyond the Paddy Fields: Riparian Reed Beds as Essential Natural Habitat for the Critically Endangered Suweon Treefrog, Dryophytes suweonensis

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This figure shows the true habitat type of Dryophytes suweonensis that this paper aims to demonstrate. ABSTRACT The Suweon treefrog (Dryophytes suweonensis (Kuramoto, 1980)), a critically endangered amphibian endemic to the Korean Peninsula, is widely regarded as being closely associated with rice paddies.

Defying Expectations: Extended Lifespan and Age‐Related Telomere Dynamics in the Tropical Bat Species, Molossus molossus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
We investigated age‐related telomere dynamics in the tropical bat Molossus molossus using a long‐term mark‐recapture study of 492 individuals from Panama. We documented a female surviving to at least 13 years, more than doubling the previously reported maximum lifespan, while finding no consistent evidence of age‐related telomere shortening.

Shifts in Southeastern Bat Communities Driven by Landscape Composition Rather Than Ecological Release

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Using 25 years of capture data from Fort Campbell Military Installation, we evaluated whether white‐nose syndrome (WNS)‐driven declines in susceptible bats were followed by increases in non‐susceptible species (ecological release) versus shifts driven by land use change, at the installation and site specific spatial scales.

A Review of the Effects of Freshwater Habitat Quality on Aquatic & Semi‐Aquatic Turtles

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between freshwater turtles and their aquatic environments. We also highlight areas which have been over‐ or under‐studied and offer recommendations for future research. ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles and terrapins require an aquatic habitat as part of their natural ecology ...
