Multidisciplinary Evaluation of a 10‐Year Restoration Program for Two Endangered Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Populations

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Supportive breeding programs are widely implemented to counteract demographic collapse in threatened populations. Their long‐term success, however, depends on maintaining genetic diversity while ensuring that released individuals contribute effectively to wild populations.

The Forgotten Pink Salmon in the Laurentian Great Lakes: An Unexpected Invasion With Insights for Three Oceans

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 813-830, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introductions of species outside their native range, such as pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, can serve as unplanned experiments that provide new insights into ecological adaptation. We synthesize available information on the understudied Great Lakes pink salmon invasion and highlight how this case can inform

Contribution of Fat Adjustment to Residual Feed Intake Estimation in Beef Cattle

open access: yesJournal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 143, Issue 4, Page 602-612, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Including fat thickness as a covariate in the regression model used to calculate residual feed intake (RFI) could help preserve carcass quality traits, such as marbling, flavour and juiciness, by accounting for variation in fat deposition.

Pubertal development and hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis are altered in male mice lacking Mecp2

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Mutations in the MECP2 gene, encoding the epigenetic reader Methyl‐CpG binding protein 2, are the main cause of Rett syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder. Besides severe symptoms such as profound intellectual disability, loss of speech and motor skills, and epilepsy, loss of function of MECP2 has been associated with pubertal ...
