Trapped in the web: network architectures spread coevolution and shape adaptation

Oikos, EarlyView.
Adaptation is critical for biodiversity to persist under global change. Within ecological communities, species often face tradeoffs between adapting to shifting abiotic conditions and navigating the complex selective pressures imposed by interaction networks.

Horizontal gene transfer of epigenetic machinery and evolution of parasitism in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum and other apicomplexans [PDF]

, 2013
Background The acquisition of complex transcriptional regulatory abilities and epigenetic machinery facilitated the transition of the ancestor of apicomplexans from a free-living organism to an obligate parasite.

From observation to understanding: A multi‐agent framework for smart microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Smart microscopy represents a paradigm shift in biological imaging, moving from passive observation tools to active collaborators in scientific inquiry. Enabled by advances in automation, computational power, and artificial intelligence, these systems are now capable of adaptive decision‐making and real‐time experimental control.

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Structural influence of gene networks on their inference: analysis of C3NET [PDF]

, 2011
Background The availability of large-scale high-throughput data possesses considerable challenges toward their functional analysis. For this reason gene network inference methods gained considerable interest.

Vernalization regulatory network identifies potential novel functions for genes in the HvVRN2 locus

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Flowering is controlled by environmental and genetic factors. Vernalization requirement in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is determined by the allele in HvVRN1 and the presence of locus HvVRN2, which consists of two zinc‐finger and CONSTANS‐like domains (ZCCT) genes: HvVRN2a and HvVRN2b.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Wheat's war against stripe rust: Integrating host immunity, genomics and breeding for durable resistance

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a foundation of global food security, faces persistent threats from stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The pathogen thrives in cool and humid environments and regularly causes epidemics that lead to severe yield losses.

Comparative Chloroplast Genomics of Cousinia (Asteraceae) With Nine Newly Sequenced Endemic Species From Central Asia

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
In this study, nine complete chloroplast genomes of Cousinia species endemic to the Pamir–Alay mountain system were sequenced and analyzed together with previously published plastomes and nuclear ribosomal ITS data. ABSTRACT Cousinia (Asteraceae: Cardueae) represents one of the most species‐rich genera within the Irano–Turanian floristic region, yet ...

Chloroplast Phylogenomics and Barcode Discovery in Medicinal Stachys Species Reveal Evolutionary Relationships and Adaptive Signatures

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study presents the first complete chloroplast genomes of two medicinally important Stachys species, S. persica and S. germanica. Comparative phylogenomic analyses revealed highly conserved genomes with lineage‐specific variations, identified hypervariable regions as candidate DNA barcodes, and detected signatures of positive selection in the petB ...
