Genetic Mapping of Resistance: ddRADseq‐Based QTL and Associated Polymorphism Conferring Resistance to Alpha‐Cypermethrin in Anopheles funestus

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The heavy reliance on pyrethroid‐based interventions has largely driven insecticide resistance in malaria vectors, accelerating the spread of resistant strains, including resistant Anopheles funestus strains. The efficacy of insecticide‐based interventions, especially insecticide‐treated nets (ITNs), the cornerstone of malaria control and ...

Scientific opinion on the exposure of children and adolescents in the Republic of Croatia to ochratoxin A (OTA) from food

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 1, January 2026.
Summary Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a secondary metabolite primarily produced by moulds of the genera Aspergillus and Penicillium. It is most commonly found in foods of plant origin, such as cereals, wine, coffee, spices and various types of fruits and vegetables, green tea, pistachios, figs, raisins, grapes, wine and chestnuts, as well as beer, coffee ...

Digital Voice as an Alternative Screening Tool to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S2, December 2025.
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.

High Imputation Accuracy Can Be Achieved Using a Small Reference Panel in a Natural Population With Low Genetic Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
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

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
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 ...

The many voices of Rastafarian women : sexual subordination in the midst of liberation

NWIG, 1994
Author calls it ironic that although Rasta men emphasize freedom, their relationship to Rasta women is characterized by a posture and a rhetoric of dominance.

Linkage Mapping vs. Association: A Comparison of Two RADseq‐Based Approaches to Identify Markers for Homomorphic Sex Chromosomes in Large Genomes

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 7, October 2025.
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 ...

Scientific opinion on the assessment of the exposure of the population of the republic of Croatia to delta‐9‐tetrahydrocanabinol (δ9‐thc) from industrial hemp food on the market of the republic of Croatia

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 4, October 2025.
Summary Delta‐9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) is a naturally occurring psychoactive compound derived from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa. In 2015, EFSA established an acute reference dose (ARfD) of 1 μg/kg body weight (bw) for Δ9‐THC and assessed acute dietary exposure from milk and dairy products.

Why Don't They Sew Anymore?—Exploring the Decline of Home Garment Sewing

Journal of Community &Applied Social Psychology, Volume 35, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
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 ...
