Is Ginkgo biloba (Ginkgoaceae) really an oviparous plant? [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 1997
Germination of Ginkgo biloba seeds with intact and removed sarcotesta was compared to test the role of the seed coat in germination biology. The presence of an intact sarcotesta significantly reduced total germination percentage when compared to seeds with the sarcotesta removed. Some seeds were also cold stratified.

Retention Bans Are Beneficial but Insufficient to Stop Shark Overfishing

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 473-487, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Sharks are among the most threatened groups of exploited fishes, comprising common bycatch across many fisheries. Management efforts intended to safeguard threatened species have increasingly focused on retention bans to reduce bycatch mortality. However, the population effects of such measures remain unevaluated across species.

Matrotrophic viviparity constrains microbiome acquisition during gestation in a live‐bearing cockroach, Diploptera punctata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
The vertical transmission of microbes from mother to offspring is critical to the survival, development, and health of animals. Invertebrate systems offer unique opportunities to conduct studies on microbiome‐development‐reproduction dynamics since ...

Transgenerational Plasticity of Maternal Hemolymph Trehalose in Aphids

open access: yesArchives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 118, Issue 1, January 2025.
Maternal hemolymph trehalose influences aphid transgenerational plasticity and adaptation to environmental stress. Higher trehalose levels in winged aphids are associated with increased trehalose levels in the offspring, potentially aiding resilience.

Tempo and mode of performance evolution across multiple independent origins of adhesive toe pads in lizards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding macroevolutionary dynamics of trait evolution is an important endeavor in evolutionary biology. Ecological opportunity can liberate a trait as it diversifies through trait space, while genetic and selective constraints can limit ...

First Report of Calceostoma glandulosum (Monogenea) in Argyrosomus regius: Morphological and Molecular Characterization and Temperature Effects on Life Cycle

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The increase in fish production in aquaculture reflects the growth of the world population. However, this expansion is accompanied by challenges, such as the intensification of production systems through increased stocking density, which induces stress in fish, weakening their immune system and making them more susceptible to disease outbreaks ...

The Role of Progesterone in the Reproductive Physiology of Females of Viviparous Squamata

open access: yesReceptors
Progesterone (P4) regulates diverse reproductive processes across vertebrates through nuclear receptors; however, its mechanisms in squamate reptiles—particularly in viviparous species—remain poorly understood.
