Maternal age effects on offspring lifespan and reproduction vary within a species. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We compared maternal age effects among four strains of rotifers in the Brachionus plicatilis species complex. For each strain, we measured lifespan, reproductive schedule, and lifetime reproductive output of offspring produced by young, middle‐aged, and old mothers.

Factors determining chromosomal localization of transposable elements in plants. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Biol (Stuttg)
We review transposon chromosomal niches, and the functional consequences of their specific chromosomal localization in plants. Abstract Transposable elements (TEs) constitute a significant part of plant genomes and shape their genomic landscape. While some TEs are ubiquitously dispersed, other elements specifically occupy discrete genomic loci.

Culturing live foods for fish larviculture using non‐microalgal diet: The role of waste‐generated bacteria and selected commercial probiotics—A review

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 2, Page 71-81, April 2022., 2022
Abstract Condensed suspension of live microalga cells, for example, Chlorella vulgaris, Nannochloropsis oculata and Tetraselmis tetrathele is often utilized as diets for mass production of live food resources, that is, rotifers, copepods, cladocerans and Artemia. These live food resources are essential for fish larviculture in hatcheries.

Molecular identification of seed‐feeding flies dissected from herbarium specimens clarifies the 100‐year history of parasitism by Japanagromyza tokunagai in Japan

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 240-256, March 2022., 2022
Seed‐feeding fly tissues (coarctate pupa; a, c, or puparium; b, d) were dissected from Japanese orchid fruits specimens kept in herbarium and molecularly identified using 660 bp (a, b) or 162 bp (c, d) amplicon of cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 barcoding region.
