Limited genomic signatures of population collapse in the critically endangered black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The black abalone, Haliotis cracherodii, is a large, long‐lived marine mollusc that inhabits rocky intertidal habitats along the coast of California and Mexico. In 1985, populations were impacted by a bacterial disease known as withering syndrome (WS) that wiped out >90% of individuals, leading to the closure of all U.S.

Genomic insights on conservation priorities for North Sea houting and European lake whitefish (Coregonus spp.)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Population genomics analysis holds great potential for informing conservation of endangered populations. We focused on a controversial case of European whitefish (Coregonus spp.) populations. The endangered North Sea houting is the only coregonid fish that tolerates oceanic salinities and was previously considered a species (C.

Expression patterns of melanin‐related genes are linked to crypsis and conspicuousness in a pumpkin toadlet

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Colour signals play pivotal roles in different communication systems, and the evolution of these characters has been associated with behavioural ecology, integumentary production processes and perceptual mechanisms of the species involved. Here, we present the first insight into the molecular and histological basis of skin colour polymorphism ...

Gene Expression Shifts in Emperor Penguin Adaptation to the Extreme Antarctic Environment

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gene expression can accelerate ecological divergence by rapidly tweaking the response of an organism to novel environments, with more divergent environments exerting stronger selection and supposedly, requiring faster adaptive responses. Organisms adapted to extreme environments provide ideal systems to test this hypothesis, particularly when ...

High Quality Diet Enhances Immune Response and Affects Gene Expression During Viral Infection in an Insect Herbivore

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Herbivorous insects tolerate chemical and metabolic variation in their host plant diet by modulating physiological traits. Insect immune response is one such trait that plays a crucial role in maintaining fitness but can be heavily influenced by variation in host plant quality.
