The development of type 2 diabetes amongst sibling pairs in the South‐South region of Nigeria: The effect of genetics, environment and lifestyle

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, Volume 43, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Introduction Type 2 diabetes is a complex condition with a multifactorial pathogenesis. The pathogenesis is considered to be polygenic due to complex interactions between genetic/epigenetic and environmental factors. The aim of this study is to determine the genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors associated with the development of type 2

Farmed Escapees Threaten MHC Diversity in Wild Atlantic Salmon

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Wild Atlantic salmon populations in Norway and elsewhere are experiencing long‐term declines driven by reduced marine survival, climate change, impacts from aquaculture, introduction of alien species, and environmental degradation. Understanding how immune diversity is affected by these declines, and thus the ability of Atlantic salmon to ...

Genetic Estimates of Relatedness: Established Practices and New Opportunities Through Low Coverage Whole‐Genome Sequencing

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Identifying close relatives in wild animal populations is fundamental across many research fields. Genetic estimates of relatedness have expanded rapidly in recent decades, drawing on a range of genetic data types. Here, we review their use and outline opportunities for future studies by combining two complementary approaches.

Task Performance and Queen Presence Influence the Brain Transcriptome in a Bumble Bee (Bombus terrestris) With a Flexible Division of Labour System

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Division of labour in reproduction and in task performance are two hallmarks of insect societies. Bumble bees and honey bees are both classified as eusocial, but differ in the social organization of their colonies and in the hormonal regulation of division of labour.

Tissue‐Specific Plasticity of DNA Methylation Across Intertidal Microhabitats in Juvenile Mussels (Mytilus californianus)

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 11, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Epigenetic modifications to DNA are proposed to underpin plastic responses to environmental change, and the manner in which DNA methylation contributes to plasticity likely differs among tissues. However, few studies have investigated tissue‐specific DNA methylation responses to ecologically relevant environmental stressors in natural settings.
