Fragment Edges Benefit a Common Predator of Pollinators via Bottom‐Up Effects

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigated the hypotheses regarding the effects of habitat fragmentation on spider biomass and causing bottom‐up or top‐down effects on multi‐trophic relationships. ABSTRACT Defaunation following habitat fragmentation typically threatens predators at higher trophic levels, which further alter prey and plants via top‐down effects.

Genotyping Contemporary Captive and Historical Wild Western Lowland Gorillas Indicates Captive Breeding Is Maintaining Genetic Diversity in a Critically Endangered Primate

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Captive populations of threatened species risk losing genetic diversity over time. We evaluated the genetic status of contemporary captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) at Howletts and Port Lympne and compared this with specimens from a historical wild population.

From glacial echoes to timber pathways: Climatic–historical drivers and timber‐trade influence on the phylogeography of Ips sexdentatus in the Basque Country

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Ips sexdentatus is expanding across southern Europe, attacking multiple Pinus species and showing the ability to colonize trees at early stages of decline. Genetic analysis of 668 individuals revealed 106 haplotypes, with Iberian populations as diversity hotspots, reflecting long‐term refugial persistence alongside more recent demographic expansion ...

Whole‐genome and transcriptome analysis in relapsed/refractory non‐Hodgkin lymphoma: Results from a multicentre precision oncology cohort

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Comprehensive genome and transcriptome profiling can inform the diagnosis, prognosis and management of relapsed/refractory (R/R) solid malignancies, yet its integration into clinical care has lagged despite strong biological rationale. We evaluated the clinical utility of whole genome and transcriptome analysis (WGTA) in 65 patients (37 ...

Protective role of Galectin‐3 in prion disease through regulation of microglial PrPSc uptake

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Galectin‐3 (Gal3) is induced in reactive microglia during prion disease and promotes microglial uptake of PrPSc. Gal3 deficiency reduces prion sequestration and accelerates disease progression, revealing a protective role for Gal3. Abstract Microglia constitute a major innate defense mechanism against prion infection; however, the molecular pathways ...
