Establishment of Efficient Microinjection System in the Porcine Embryos

Journal of Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology, 2014
Transcription activator like effector nucleases (TALENs) are artificial restriction enzymes generated by fusing a TALE DNA binding domain to a DNA cleavage domain which remove and introduce specific genes to produce transgenic animals. To investigate the

Insights on the phenology of the Asian longhorned tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis) using stored lipids

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 1, Page 396-406, February 2026.
Lipid analysis of field‐collected ticks unveiled a complex population structure and supports the potential for several stages to overwinter. Abstract The seasonality of Haemaphysalis longicornis in the United States comprises overlapping life stages in the spring and summer.

Does ecology shape geographical parthenogenesis? Evidence from the facultatively parthenogenetic stick insect Megacrania batesii

Ecology and Evolution
Closely related sexual and parthenogenetic species often show distinct distribution patterns, known as geographical parthenogenesis. Similar patterns, characterized by the existence of separate sexual and parthenogenetic populations across their natural ...

Detection and Genetic Diversity of Heritable Bacterial Symbionts in Human Lice Based on 16S‐rRNA Gene

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Candidatus Riesia pediculicola and Wolbachia were found in 79.6% and 95.2% of head lice, and 81.8% and 100% of body lice. Candidatus Riesia pthiripubis and Wolbachia appeared in 41.7% and 75% of pubic lice. Maximum‐likelihood 16S‐rRNA phylogeny revealed substantial heterogeneity within symbiont populations. ABSTRACT Human lice are obligate bloodsucking

Highly localised morphological diversity in the mayfly Cloeon tasmaniae Tillyard (Ephemeroptera; Baetidae), and a new synonomy with C. paradieniense Suter

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Ambiguity over the features that differentiate two nominal species of baetid mayflies, Cloeon paradieniense Suter and C. tasmaniae Tillyard, in southeast Australia led to a detailed analysis of the morphology and meristics of specimens from Victoria, South Australia and, in particular, Tasmania, where both species have been reported.

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...

Fraternal cooperation of hierarchical cancer parallels metazoan multicellularity and eusociality

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 400-418, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Metazoan multicellularity and eusociality — both outcomes of the fraternal major transitions — have numerous features in common such as uneven distribution of group‐establishing potential. In addition to this framework, I argue herein that the group‐forming principles of metazoan multicellularity and eusociality are analogous to hierarchical ...
