Target Capture Sequencing Provides Insights Into Hybridogenetic Water Frogs
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.The genomics of European frogs of the genus Pelophylax are intriguing due to their propensity to hybridise, the prevalence of polyploidy, and the unusual hemiclonal hybridogenetic complexes formed in many populations. This study examines the use of target capture sequencing using the Frog Cap bait set to investigate these complex systems.

Integrating Genetics and Environment to Find Causal Mechanisms for Multiple Sclerosis
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 5, May 2026.Genetic and epidemiological studies have together identified hundreds of risk factors for MS, but we know relatively little about the mechanisms through which these cause disease. In this review, we explore a new generation of studies that are integrating genetics and environment to uncover disease mechanisms.

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.ABSTRACT Due to climate change, the requirement for increased resilience by grassland systems to onsets of ever‐increasing drought stresses makes the development of drought‐resistant forage crops a priority for future food and energy security. Novel ×Festulolium (Festuca × Lolium) cultivars offer unique opportunities to combine complementary traits ...

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 4, Page 351-360, May 2026.ABSTRACT Animals with seasonal reproductive cycles, as the Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), have developed mechanisms to synchronize reproduction with the environmental cycle in order to optimize reproductive success through melatonin. Angiogenesis and oxidative stress are key processes in spermatogenesis, contributing to testicular remodeling and ...

RNA Modifications: Current Understandings and Future Perspectives
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.Types of RNA modification. We have summarized the currently common types of RNA modifications, including ac4C, m6A, m1A, m5C, m3C, m7G, and ψ, and visually characterized their features through structural formulas. The characteristic structures are marked with a background color different from the background color.
