Contrasting population genetic structures of freshwater eels (Anguilla marmorata, A. bicolor, A. mossambica) from Madagascar

Journal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 2409-2418, October 2026.
Abstract Freshwater eels (genus Anguilla) are of major biological and commercial interest due to their complex catadromous life cycle and as a high‐value fishery resource, but the biology of tropical species is still poorly understood. This study investigates the genetic integrity, diversity and population structure of three species of tropical eels ...

Whole‐Night Gentle Rocking Improves Sleep in Poor Sleepers With Insomnia Complaints

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Specific brain oscillations can be manipulated during sleep to improve sleep quality and memory performance. We previously demonstrated that continuous rocking stimulation (0.25 Hz, lateral movement) applied to good sleepers during sleep enhanced stable deep sleep, boosted NREM oscillations (spindles and slow waves) and memory consolidation ...

Epigenetic Clocks Can Predict Age in the Largemouth Bass‐Complex Despite Spatial and Sexual Variation [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Sustainable fisheries rely on balancing harvests with ecological impacts. Despite the importance of species' demographic profiles, many assessments forgo age due to methodological complexities. Developing non‐lethal methods for age determination can improve stock assessments to ensure future sustainability. Epigenetic signals, specifically DNA

Drift and Selection in a Recently Colonized Sea: The Genomic Basis of Adaptation to Low‐Salinity Waters in Baltic Harbour Porpoises

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 20, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding how demography and natural selection interact during colonization of novel environments is a central question in evolutionary biology. The Baltic Sea region combines one of the world's strongest salinity gradients with a well‐characterized postglacial history of less than ~12,000 years. The harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is
