Inbreeding depression in male reproductive traits
Abstract Inbreeding frequently leads to inbreeding depression, a general reduction in trait values and loss of fitness, and it appears that some sexually selected traits are especially sensitive to inbreeding, but sperm may be an exception.

SwarmGenomics: A Unified Pipeline for Individual‐Based Whole‐Genome Analyses
ABSTRACT Advances in sequencing technologies have made whole‐genome data widely accessible, enabling research in population genetics, evolutionary biology, and conservation. However, analysing whole‐genome sequencing (WGS) data remains challenging, often requiring multiple specialised tools and substantial bioinformatics expertise.

Hybrid Varieties for Organic Cereals? Prospects and acceptance of hybrid breeding for organic production [PDF]
Hybrid breeding utilizes the advantages characterizing F1 plants in a targeted manner: Vigour, uniformity, and a combination of all dominant traits of the parental lines.

A century of theories of balancing selection
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Characterization of Social and Repetitive Behaviors of Mllt11/Af1q/TcF7c Conditional Knockout Mice
Sex‐specific neurodevelopmental defects in Mllt11 conditional knockout mice. Females displayed reduced social interest, increased freezing, and decreased nestlet shredding, while males exhibited increased novelty‐seeking behaviors. ABSTRACT Mllt11 (myeloid/lymphoid or mixed‐lineage leukemia translocated to chromosome 11; also known as Af1q/TcF7c) has ...

ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.
