Estimation of Inbreeding Depression From Overdominant Loci Using Molecular Markers

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications
Inbreeding depression is a highly relevant universal phenomenon in population and conservation genetics since it leads to a decline in the fitness of individuals.

Using herbarium collections to study genetic responses to global change

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 2, Page 637-644, July 2026.
Summary Earth's c. 406 million herbarium specimens represent a largely untapped resource of genetic data that could transform our understanding of global plant populations. Advances in DNA sequencing have made the extraction of genetic data from these preserved specimens increasingly feasible, enabling new insights into plant biodiversity and ...

Evolution of Crematogaster sordidula (Hymenoptera, Formicidae) Ants in the Mediterranean Region During Plio‐Pleistocene Climatic Changes

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 615-638, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding insect responses to global climate change involves identifying strategies used during past climate oscillations. Phylogeography offers a powerful framework to unravel how historical climatic and geological events have shaped the spatial genetic patterns of species, providing critical insights into evolutionary processes, whereas ...

Reproductive Biology and Hormonal Induction Protocols for Labeo dero (Hamilton 1822): A Foundational Framework for Conservation Aquaculture in Bangladesh

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
A reproductive biology study of Labeo dero reveals a July breeding peak with female GSI reaching 14.9 %. Induced breeding trials establish optimal doses of 6 mg kg−1 (♀) and 3 mg kg−1 (♂) carp pituitary extract (94.7 % spawning) and 0.6 mL kg−1 (♀) and 0.3 mL kg−1 (♂) Ovuhom (82.3 % spawning).

Decoding Aquaculture's Future: A Review of Molecular Docking and Simulation in Enhancing Growth and Disease Resistance

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture has overtaken capture fisheries as the main source of aquatic animal protein, marking a critical step in global food security. Yet, rapid intensification faces major challenges, including disease outbreaks, environmental degradation, and dependence on wild‐caught fish for feed.

Note on Estimates of the Inbreeding Coefficient through Study of Pedigrees and Isonymous Marriages

open access: yes, 2019
Crow and Mange (1965) developed a method to estimate the inbreeding coefficient (F) through an ingenious surname analysis. Such formulations assume a regularity of transmission of surnames, monophyletism, and random occurrence of consanguineous marriages.

Mucopolysaccharidosis IIID and Beta‐Mannosidosis in Brazilian Anglo‐Nubian Goats: Molecular and Genealogical Insights for the Development and Implementation of a Genetic Disease Eradication Program

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beta mannosidosis and Mucopolysaccharidosis IIID are two autosomal recessive lysosomal storage diseases identified in Anglo‐Nubian goats. Even though they are well characterized from the clinical and molecular point of view, there is a gap in studies aiming to understand distribution and dissemination risk in goat populations throughout the ...

Conservation Status of Two Italian Local Poultry Breeds: Faraona Camosciata and Oca Padovana

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to assess the conservation status and characterize the phenotypic and genomic diversity of two endangered Italian poultry genetic resources to guide their conservation plans. Blood samples and morphometric data were collected on 50 Faraona Camosciata (FAC, Numida meleagris) and 50 Oca Padovana (OPD, Anser anser) adult ...

Transcriptomic Analysis in the Liver of Two Rabbit Lines Divergently Selected for Intramuscular Fat Content

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important indicator of meat quality, affecting the sensory properties of meat. IMF is a complex trait with polygenic nature. This research aimed to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and key transcription factors (TFs) associated with IMF deposition in the liver of two rabbit lines ...
