Digital Voice as an Alternative Screening Tool to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment
Abstract Background The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is a commonly used screening tool for cognitive impairment. Despite translation into multiple languages to facilitate broader use globally, there are inherent education and cultural biases that result in variations in cognitive screening accuracies.

ABSTRACT Genotype imputation, the inference of missing genotypes using a reference set of population haplotypes, is a cost‐effective tool for improving the quality and quantity of genetic datasets. Imputation is usually applied to large and well‐characterised datasets of humans and livestock, even though it could also benefit smaller natural ...

The Genetics of Host Plant Acceptance in Pea Aphids
ABSTRACT The evolution of host‐associated sympatric populations in phytophagous insects (so called “host races”) connects adaptive divergence to barriers to gene flow. Pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum) host races specialise on legume species, and because host plant choice leads to assortative mating, the genetic basis of host plant acceptance is key to ...

ABSTRACT Reliable tools for the identification of genetic sex are invaluable in many fields of biology, but their design requires knowledge of sex‐linked sequences, which is lacking in many taxa. Restriction‐site‐associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) is widely used to identify sex‐linked markers, but multiple distinct strategies are employed, and it is ...

Why Don't They Sew Anymore?—Exploring the Decline of Home Garment Sewing
ABSTRACT This study examines the reasons for decreased home garment sewing and its implications for well‐being. Based on narratives from 395 elderly Finnish crafters, the research explores why many have ceased sewing garments at home. Using qualitative content analysis and the ideal‐type method, the study identifies diverse attitudes toward sewing and ...

Abstract Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) is an important forage grass, providing a major source of feed for ruminants in temperate regions. Due to its highly heterozygous and repeat‐rich genome, high‐quality chromosome‐level genome assemblies are scarce for Italian ryegrass.
