Preprocessing missing data and partitions for phylogenetic analysis under dynamic homology, with application to museomics and phylogenomics

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In dynamic homology, data must usually be preprocessed to distinguish sequencing artefacts (missing data) from insertion–deletion events, but empirical studies using POY/PhyG have employed manual preprocessing. Here, we compare different procedures for handling missing data for dynamic homology, present Python scripts to automate these ...

Powdered hibiscus anthocyanin‐nanofibril complexes as natural colourants: Stability and application in yoghurt and soft candy

Coloration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The instability of anthocyanins limits their application as natural food colorants. This study aimed to enhance the stability of anthocyanins extracted from Hibiscus sabdariffa through copigmentation with protein nanofibrils produced from pea, rice, gluten and whey isolates. Linear and curly nanofibril structures were prepared and incorporated

Integrated species distribution modeling to assess species status and current and future threats for an imperiled amphibian

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
To understand the range‐wide drivers of Arizona Toad distribution and anticipate future changes, we combined 13 datasets covering distinct portions of the range in an integrated species distribution model. We estimate that the current occupied range is 1/4–1/3 of previously defined range boundaries and that increasingly dry conditions will lead to ...

Environmental Morphological Divergence and Its Integration With Collective Behavior in Cooperative Pseudoscorpions

Ethology, EarlyView.
In the social pseudoscorpion Paratemnoides nidificator, populations across contrasting urban and peri‐urban environments exhibit marked morphological divergence and consistent sexual dimorphism. Crucially, relative development of the prey‐capture pedipalp apparatus (rather than absolute body size) is positively integrated with proactive collective ...

The H19/miR‐760/BST2 regulatory axis sustains breast cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
H19 and BST2 promote breast cancer aggressiveness through their reciprocal coregulation by miR‐760. Since both transcripts are targeted by miR‐760, overexpression of one sequesters the microRNA and relieves repression of the other: H19 raises BST2 levels, and BST2 raises H19 levels.

Genomic analyses of the barberry carpet moth, Pareulype berberata, reveals the presence of the endosymbiont Wolbachia

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
The first genome assembly for the endangered barberry carpet moth Pareulype berberata was generated, with comparative genomic analysis revealing low sequence diversity among individuals within the UK and across Europe. Within the P. berberata genomic data, we identified sequences associated with the bacterial endosymbiont Wolbachia, expanding the list ...

ICSH Guidance on Bone Marrow Examination and Reporting

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Examination of the bone marrow (BM) remains fundamental to the diagnosis, classification, prognostication, and monitoring of hematolymphoid and other disorders affecting blood cell production. Since publication of the International Council for Standardization in Haematology (ICSH) guideline in 2008, advances in diagnostic technologies, disease

Genome‐scale evidence for host‐associated lineage divergence in the parasitoid, Microctonus aethiopoides

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
Host associations are primary drivers of genomic divergence, with clear phylogenetic separation observed between strains associated with Hypera and Sitona weevil hosts. Genomic diversity aligns with reproductive modes: sexually reproducing ancestral lineages maintain high heterozygosity, while derived asexual strains exhibit reduced heterozygosity and ...

Characterizing Runs of Homozygosity and Inbreeding in American Mink Using SNP Data and Pedigree Information

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inbreeding increases the likelihood of deleterious recessive alleles becoming homozygous and consequently affecting economically important traits. Runs of homozygosity (ROH), the continuous homozygous segments of the genome and the higher than expected homozygosity (HOM) are genomic indicators of inbreeding, quantified as FROH and FHOM ...

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.
