Valorizing Erasure: Imperial Knowledge Production in Anglo‐American Coverage of Chad's ‘Toyota War’

open access: yesThe British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT How does imperial knowledge production operate when Western media coverage of a Global South subject is predominantly admiring instead of hostile? This article addresses that question through critical discourse analysis of sixty‐three Anglo‐American news articles covering the Chad‐Libya conflict of the 1980s, the ‘Toyota War’.

Conflict and Agricultural Performance: Evidence From Myanmar

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the February 2021 military coup, armed conflict in Myanmar surged by more than 2000%. Against this backdrop, this study contributes to the literature by investigating how the association between conflict and agricultural performance varies by cropping period—planting, mid‐season or harvest—during two subsequent 2021 and 2022 monsoon ...

Form, function, and evolution of worker–worker social carrying in ants

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Social carrying is a widespread ant recruitment behavior in which one worker physically transports another, usually during nest relocation. Across 62 species, phylogenetic analyses suggest that it originated as a stereotypical, coordinated behavior, with carrying posture largely conserved within subfamilies. Its occurrence across colony sizes indicates

Comparative Genomics and Functional Evidence for Convergent Adaptation to Hypoxia in Mammals

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study reveals convergent selection in mammals adapted to hypoxia. Functional assays demonstrate that amino acid mutations reduce oxidative stress, attenuate hypoxia‐induced injury, and modulate the hypoxia‐inducible transcription factor (HIF)‐driven hypoxic response.

Osteological, Biological, and Genetic Consequences of Colonization of Fresh Waters by Marine Cottoid Fishes (Cottidae)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Lacustrine forms of Triglopsis from North American and European lakes are at different stages of evolution, making them a suitable model for testing hypotheses about evolutionary patterns and rates. An integrative analysis of morphological, genetic, and biological adaptations occurring in lacustrine forms of the genus Triglopsis was carried out.

The Australian Hydromyine Rodents—Their Interspecific Diversity and Reproductive Biology: A Review

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
There are two major groups, the Rattus species and the Hydromyini, in Australia. Clearly, the hydromyine rodents, unlike the Rattus genus, exhibit a diverse array of reproductive biological traits in both males and females, the full evolutionary significance of which has yet to be ascertained.
