Pvr and Pvf2 Are Essential for Valve Cell Differentiation in the Larval Drosophila Heart

genesis, Volume 64, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The directionality of blood flow is regulated by heart valves, among other things. While the heart valves in vertebrates are multicellular and complex, the valve in the Drosophila heart consists of exactly two highly specialized cells. They arise during early larval development from two cardiomyocytes, those that form the boundary between the ...

Louse Flies on the Fly: Host Macroecology Shapes Interspecific Variation in Ectoparasite Prevalence Among Migrating Birds

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
We analysed over 100,000 migrating birds from 157 species to identify macroecological drivers of interspecific variation in louse fly prevalence. Using phylogenetically informed Bayesian models, we show that host morphology, ecology and biogeographic traits shape infection patterns, with Ornithomya avicularia and O.

Beyond birds: rethinking bird‐centered pathogen models in light of insect migration

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Migration redistributes biomass, nutrients, and pathogens across ecosystems. For decades, migratory birds have been treated as the default long‐distance pathogen vectors, shaping both conceptual frameworks and empirical models of disease ecology.

From Gauged to Ungauged: Using Catchment Morphology to Guide the Transfer of Physics‐Informed Neural Network Discharge Predictions

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study develops a transferability framework that combines ensemble clustering with hybrid PINN‐GRU models for discharge prediction in ungauged catchments. Using 10 catchment morphometrics, 117 subcatchments were grouped into four clusters, achieving strong within‐cluster transferability.

Convection‐Permitting Regional Climate Simulations Reveal Stronger Drying and Snow Loss in Semi‐Arid Mountainous Basins of Morocco

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 6, June 2026.
Convection‐permitting simulations (WRF3, 3 km) better represent mountain precipitation and snow processes than coarser regional simulations (WRF20, 20 km). Hydrological simulations forced by WRF3 improve streamflow seasonality and snow‐related hydrological signatures compared to WRF20.

Sufficiency of current practice: How well does the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire detect clinically elevated posttraumatic stress, anxiety, and depression symptoms in children in care?

JCPP Advances, Volume 6, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Background It is well‐established that children living in care are at far greater risk of mental health difficulties than their peers. This includes common and trauma‐specific mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Identification and Functional Characterization of Isoflavone synthase Gene Family in Pea (Pisum sativum): The Entry Point to Pisatin Biosynthesis

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Isoflavone synthase (IFS), a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase of the CYP93C subfamily, catalyzes the conversion of flavanones into isoflavones, the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoflavonoid phytoalexins. In pea (Pisum sativum L.), the phytoalexin pisatin plays a pivotal role in defense against pathogens.
