Missense Variants in the Second Transmembrane Domain of TMEM17 Disrupt Its Stability and Function and Lead to a Wide Phenotypic Spectrum of Ciliopathies

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 305-315, February 2026.
Missense variants in TMEM17 disrupt its localization and function at the ciliary transition zone, leading to a wide range of ciliopathy phenotypes, from OFD6 and Joubert syndromes to Meckel syndrome. ABSTRACT Ciliopathies are rare genetic disorders characterized by significant genetic and phenotypic variability.

Contribution of microcosm experiments to conservation science

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Microcosms, or miniature experimental systems, have been used to develop models and theories in ecology. However, their contribution to conservation science is unclear. We explored the application, design, and impact of microcosms in conservation science from 469 systematically identified articles published from 1986 to 2023.

The Critical Role of Coefficients: Updating Allometric Normalisation Constants for Modern Ecology and Modelling

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Allometry is central to a wide range of ecological research including dynamic food web modelling. Here we updated the often neglected allometric coefficients for metabolism and production, deriving new genus and metabolic group levels estimates with phylogenetic hierarchical modelling providing robust inference.

A Comparative Analysis of Long‐Term Effective Population Sizes Across Eukaryotes

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 4, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The effective population size (Ne) is a fundamental parameter in population genetics. Despite its central importance, there are relatively few estimates of Ne available and there have been limited attempts to compare values across eukaryotes. Here, we estimate long‐term effective population sizes for 120 species, broadly distributed across the

Legacies of consecutive summer droughts on soil‐borne plant parasitic protists (Oomycota: Stramenopila and Phytomyxea: Rhizaria) and protistan consumers (Cercozoa: Rhizaria) along an experimental plant diversity gradient

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2010-2024, February 2026.
Summary Increasing frequencies of severe summer droughts and plant diversity loss disrupt ecosystem functioning and stability of European grasslands. Understanding how these factors interact with pathogens is crucial. We investigated the effects of plant diversity and repeated summer drought on soil‐borne parasites within a grassland biodiversity ...

Quiescin Sulfhydryl Oxidase‐Like 1 Positively Regulates Seed Dormancy in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 489-503, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Seed dormancy is an adaptive strategy that enables plants to survive adverse environmental conditions. In agricultural contexts, an optimal level of dormancy is essential: Insufficient dormancy can result in preharvest sprouting, while excessive dormancy may lead to uneven germination and poor stand establishment in subsequent crops.
