Ocular morphology and morphometry of the great egret (Ardea alba): A comprehensive anatomical description

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is widely distributed, yet knowledge of its ocular morphology remains limited. This study described the morphometry and morphology of the eyeball and its accessory glands in six specimens using radiography, morphometry, light and scanning electron microscopy, and 3D scanning.

Evolution of the male reproductive system in Penaeoidea (Dendrobranchiata): Integrating morphological and molecular data

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Penaeoidea shrimps exhibit substantial diversity in reproductive morphology, but the evolutionary history of the male reproductive system (MRS) and its congruence with molecular phylogenies remain poorly understood. This study characterized MRS morphology across Penaeoidea and used these morphological data, together with a molecular phylogeny ...

Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Antimicrobial Peptides in Aquatic and Terrestrial Livestock Species

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A global meta‐analysis of 58 studies (926 effect sizes and 29 species across five taxa) revealed that dietary antimicrobial peptides generally improve growth performance, blood metabolites, and immune responses. The greatest benefits were observed in omnivorous livestock, such as pigs and chickens. Dose‐duration effects were evident. An optimal outcome

Histological Characterization and Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis of Gonads During Early Sex Differentiation in the Northern Snakehead (Channa argus)

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This study delineates the early sex differentiation timeline in the northern snakehead (Channa argus). These findings provide a foundation for future sex‐control breeding in this economically important species. ABSTRACT The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is an economically important aquaculture species in China.
