Transgenerational plasticity research: Challenges and opportunities
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Transgenerational plasticity (TGP) is a type of non‐genetic inheritance whereby one generation's environment affects a subsequent generation's phenotype. It can influence the persistence of organisms in stressful climatic conditions through allowing rapid phenotypic ...

Our study investigates inbreeding avoidance mechanisms at the gamete level in domesticated Atlantic salmon using sperm motility traits assessments, fertilisation trials, and paternity analysis under competitive conditions. We demonstrate that ovarian fluid from sibling females reduces sperm motility traits and fertilisation rates but found no ...

ABSTRACT Aim Left ventricular pressure overload (LVPO) in adults is associated with adverse electrical remodeling, characterized by reduced conduction velocity (CV). However, the progression of LVPO differs when imposed during the proliferative phase of cardiac development.

We report an individual with mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB and chronic pancytopenia. Hematological studies in a mouse model revealed microcytic anemia and decreased monocyte count. Hence, pancytopenia is thought to be secondary to mucopolysaccharidosis type IIIB, and we suggest that a complete blood count should be included in the clinical ...

On the Identifiability of Genetic Parameters for Growth in Mice With a Massively Deep Pedigree
ABSTRACT In models with direct and maternal genetic effects, structural features of the data are a potential source of bias and low accuracy of estimates for genetic covariance parameters. One of the well‐known reasons for such poor practical identifiability is the lack of dams with own observations.

ABSTRACT Parasites are expected to hybridise in similar ways to free‐living organisms, although this may be modified by their reduced genome architecture. Recombinant strains and taxa of hybrid origin can be studied in nature where hosts come into secondary contact. Here we apply genome‐wide analysis to parasites from a contact previously characterised
