Broadening the semiaquatic scene: Quantification of long bone microanatomy across pinnipeds
The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 8, Page 2124-2150, August 2026.Abstract Investigations of bone microanatomy are commonly used to explore lifestyle strategies in vertebrates. While distinct microanatomical limb bone features have been established for exclusively aquatic and terrestrial lifestyles, identifying clear patterns for the semiaquatic lifestyle remains more challenging.

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Type I interferons (IFNs) play essential roles in antiviral immune responses. The extensive diversification of type I IFNs into various subtypes and duplicated gene copies has posed significant challenges for evolutionary reconstruction. To address this, we developed the type I IFN sequence composition and structure (IFN‐SCOPE) model and gene ...
