Metabolism Controls the Timing of Human Brain Development and Maturation

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Among primates the human brain is the largest in size, exhibiting a higher neuronal density and connectivity. The prolonged expansion and subsequent connectome reorganization of the human brain have been suggested to promote higher cognitive and behavioral abilities.

On the Heterochrony and Evolution of Oral Structures in Phyllopharyngean Ciliates (Protista: Ciliophora)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 2, Page 91-106, March 2026.
Ontogenetic sequences in phyllopharyngean ciliates. ABSTRACT Heterochronic shifts in developmental sequences of unicellular organisms are rarely considered as mechanisms behind their morphological evolution. Among eukaryotic microbes, ciliates represent a key model group, exhibiting diverse morphologies and developmental trajectories.

Sex ratio variations among years and breeding systems in a facultatively parthenogenetic termite

, 2018
Some species of termites evolved an outstanding reproductive strategy called asexual queen succession (AQS), in which the primary queen is replaced by multiple parthenogenetically produced daughters (neotenics) that mate with the primary king.

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 ...

Cultural and Gender Influences on Facial Attractiveness: A Comparative Study of Japanese and American Raters Using Geometric Morphometrics

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.

A Breeding System Derived From Asexual Queen Succession in Termite Colonies From Cold Climate Regions

In social insects, geographic variation is often accompanied not only by physiological changes but also by changes in their social system. In the subterranean termite Reticulitermes speratus that exhibits a sophisticated social system, colonies in ...
