Genome Architecture and Speciation in Plants and Animals

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 22, November 2025.
ABSTRACT There have been numerous treatments of specific topics in speciation, but surprisingly few papers have compared patterns and processes of speciation across different organismal groups. In this review, we partially address this gap by asking how variation in genome architecture impacts speciation across the plant and animal kingdoms.

The heritability of shell morphometrics in the freshwater pulmonate gastropod Physa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The cosmopolitan freshwater pulmonate snail Physa acuta hybridizes readily with Physa carolinae in the laboratory, although their F1 progeny are sterile. The two species differ qualitatively in shell shape, the former bearing a more globose shell and the

Vodní měkkýši Zoologické zahrady hl. m. Prahy [PDF]

open access: yesMalacologica Bohemoslovaca, 2020
The Prague zoological garden is one of the most famous zoos in Europe. It covers an area of 58 ha on the right bank of the Vltava River (a tributary of the Elbe River). Aquatic molluscs of this zoo were studied mostly in 2019.

Matching maternal and paternal experiences underpin molecular thermal acclimation

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 15, August 2025.
Abstract The environment experienced by one generation has the potential to affect the subsequent one through non‐genetic inheritance of parental effects. Since both mothers and fathers can influence their offspring, questions arise regarding how the maternal, paternal and offspring experiences integrate into the resulting phenotype.

Vodní měkkýši přírodní rezervace Maštale (východní Čechy) [PDF]

open access: yesMalacologica Bohemoslovaca, 2020
The Maštale Nature Reserve (Eastern Bohemia, Czech Republic) represents a system of rocky sandstone valleys with springs, ponds and several streams. Aquatic molluscs of this area have never been studied, which became a reason for the first inventory ...

Physico-chemical variables determining the invasion risk of freshwater habitats by alien mollusks and crustaceans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The aim of this study was to assess the invasion risk of freshwater habitats and determine the environmental variables that are most favorable for the establishment of alien amphipods, isopods, gastropods, and bivalves.

When One Global Invasion Hides Another—Cryptic Interspecific Invasion in Freshwater Gastropods

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Cryptic invasions are an understudied phenomenon among species invasions, especially in freshwater invertebrates. We study the gastropod family Physidae, including the global invaders Physella acuta and several enigmatic Stenophysa species, their phylogenetic relationships and the presence of native species among African Physidae. We infer

Gender-role alternation in the simultaneously hermaphroditic freshwater snail Physa acuta: not with the same partner [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In simultaneous hermaphrodites, gender conflicts that arise from two potential mates sharing the same gender preference may be solved through conditional reciprocity (or gamete trading).

Principal response curves technique for the analysis of multivariate biomonitoring time series [PDF]

open access: yes
Although chemical and biological monitoring is often used to evaluate the quality of surface waters for regulatory purposes and/or to evaluate environmental status and trends, the resulting biological and chemical data sets are large and difficult to ...

Interactions Between Maternal, Paternal, Developmental, and Immediate Environmental Effects on Anti-predator Behavior of the Snail Physa acuta

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Transgenerational plasticity, which occurs when the environment experienced by parents changes the phenotype of offspring, is widespread in animal and plant species.
