Proteomic similarity of the Littorinid snails in the evolutionary context [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Background The introduction of DNA-based molecular markers made a revolution in biological systematics. However, in cases of very recent divergence events, the neutral divergence may be too slow, and the analysis of adaptive part of the genome is more ...

No Tail No Fail: Life Cycles of the Zoogonidae (Digenea)
Diversity, 2023 The Zoogonidae is the only digenean family where known cercariae lack the tail but actively search for the second intermediate host. However, the data on the zoogonid life cycles are scarce. In the present study, we elucidated and verified life cycles of

Premating barriers in young sympatric snail species
Scientific Reports, 2021 Sympatric coexistence of recently diverged species raises the question of barriers restricting the gene flow between them. Reproductive isolation may be implemented at several levels, and the weakening of some, e.g.
