Seascape Genomics Uncovers Genomic Patterns Shaped by Temperature and Salinity Outlier Loci in Dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus Linnaeus, 1758) Across the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, we explored the population genetic structure and its relation to environmental adaptations of the dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) in the western Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Although previously two populations within the Mediterranean Sea were identified, recent evidence suggests more complex structuring.

Inbreeding depression for producer-recorded udder, metabolic, and reproductive diseases in US dairy cattle

Journal of Dairy Science
: This study leveraged a growing dataset of producer-recorded phenotypes for mastitis, reproductive diseases (metritis and retained placenta), and metabolic diseases (ketosis, milk fever, and displaced abomasum) to investigate the potential presence of ...

Multiple Glacial Refugia and Complex Postglacial Dynamics of Primula sikkimensis (Primuaceae) in the Heterogeneous Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Primula sikkimensis persisted in distinct glacial refugia within the Hengduan Mountains and eastern Himalayas during the Last Glacial Maximum. Subsequent postglacial range expansions onto the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau were accompanied by secondary contact and interspecific hybridization, collectively enhancing genetic diversity and adaptive capacity. These

Population Structure and Genetic Diversity Analyses Reveal Isolation That May Imperil the Northernmost Colony of the Endangered Australian Sea Lion

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Rapid warming of marine environments is threatening ecosystems, especially species at the edge of their range. This study analysed the genetic structure and diversity of Australian sea lion populations and found the northernmost population to be highly isolated with extremely low genetic variation.

Evolution and Climate Adaptation in Eurasian Gyrfalcon Populations

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This reports the influence of past, current and future Arctic climate change to the evolution of Eurasian gyrfalcons (Falco rusticolus), and reveals that its current evolutionary potential is insufficient to cope with the ongoing Arctic warming. ABSTRACT Climate change is considered a key driver for shaping ecological and evolutionary processes of ...

Development and Characterization of Microsatellite Genetic Markers for Hyalomma rufipes, a Tick Vector of Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study developed and validated 14 polymorphic microsatellite markers to investigate the population genetics of Hyalomma rufipes, a tick species that transmits Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) in East Africa. Ticks collected from livestock in northern Kenya were morphologically and genetically identified, followed by genome sequencing ...

Identifying Key Biodiversity Areas Based on Distinct Genetic Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity. Distinct genetic diversity has been introduced as one of the metrics to estimate whether a site holds a threshold proportion of a species' global genetic diversity during the KBA identification process.
