How copy number variations shape brain developmental disorders: Unraveling the synaptic puzzle
Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, Volume 80, Issue 3, Page 166-179, March 2026.Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), such as schizophrenia (SCZ), Attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disabilities, and intellectual disabilities (ID), are highly prevalent. One significant genetic factor associated with NDDs is copy number variations (CNVs), which are structural changes in the ...

A genomic comparison of two termites with different social complexity [PDF]
, 2015 The termites evolved eusociality and complex societies before the ants, but have been studied much less. The recent publication of the first two termite genomes provides a unique comparative opportunity, particularly because the sequenced termites ...

PsyCh Journal, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Facial attractiveness is a critical factor in forming interpersonal impressions. Evaluations of facial attractiveness were previously considered universal. However, it has recently been pointed out that individuals and cultures can diversify their evaluations.

Phylogenomics‐based click‐beetle classification tackles multiple origins of phenotypic modifications
Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.Using a concatenated dataset consisting of new genomic data from 73 species across 40 click‐beetle tribes and an earlier published, smaller dataset, we conducted the first 4200‐ortholog study targeting the phylogeny of Elateridae with the highest resolution to date.

Systematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.This is the first phylogenomic study of Omethidae using genome skimming, sampling representatives of all subfamilies to resolve long‐standing conflicts between morphology‐ and multigene‐based hypotheses. Phylogenomic analyses recovered Omethidae sister to Artematopodidae and strongly support Telegeusinae as a subfamily of Omethidae, rejecting its ...

From Genomic Fossils to Functional Elements: The Evolving Story of Pseudogenes
Advanced Genetics, Volume 6, Issue 4, December 2025.This review begins with an introduction, summarizing the research background in pseudogene studies. It then contains three aspects: identification of pseudogenes, detailing their classification and features in metazoan genomes; functional pseudogenes, introducing their reactivation and regulation mechanisms; and pseudogenes’ contribution to species ...

Subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes, colony behavior and population dynamic changes under conditions of exposure to chitin synthesis inhibitor bait [PDF]
, 2021 This thesis entitled, “Subterranean termite, Reticulitermes flavipes, colony behavior and population dynamic changes under conditions of exposure to chitin synthesis inhibitor bait”, explores key components involved in termiticide baiting success on a ...

Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.Amphibians exhibit a large diversity in reproductive and developmental strategies, which in turn are linked to their body size, life history and habitat. Here, we explore why terrestrial egg laying frogs are on average smaller than aquatic egg laying ones and whether this pattern also exists in salamanders.

Genetic diversity and colony breeding structure in native and introduced ranges of the Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus [PDF]
, 2011 The Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes formosanus is recognized as one of the most important invasive pest species. Originating from China, C. formosanus has spread to many tropical and subtropical regions around the globe in the last 400 years ...

Neocortical neurogenesis: a proneural gene perspective
The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 21, Page 5580-5610, November 2025.The neocortex is a mammalian‐specific brain region responsible for higher‐order cognitive functioning that shares fundamental similarities across species, but which is larger and more complex in humans. Proneural genes, encoding basic helix–loop–helix transcription factors (TFs), are evolutionarily conserved drivers of neurogenesis from fly to human ...
