Faster Weight Growth in Invasive Mosquitofish Gambusia holbrooki and Gambusia affinis (Poeciliidae) Under Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Global populations of western mosquitofish G. affinis are more sensitive to climatic variation than eastern mosquitofish G. holbrooki in terms of length‐weight allometries. Under climate change, the populations of G. affinis, especially those in East Asia and Eastern Europe, are expected to grow faster in weight, posing greater threats to native ...

Reproductive flexibility in a single‐brooded migrant: can the European roller Coracias garrulus adapt to extreme weather events?

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Global climate change has intensified extreme weather events, including short‐duration but intense rainfall, which can significantly impact avian reproduction. This study examines the effects of extreme rainfall on the reproductive phenology and performance of the European roller Coracias garrulus, a single‐brooded migratory bird, in a semiarid ...

Geographic and Molecular Insights Into Bat Diversity and Virus Distribution in China: Implications for Public Health

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Bats are key reservoirs of zoonotic viruses, yet comprehensive data on their diversity and viral carriage across China remain limited. This study compiled national‐level data on bat taxonomy, distribution, and associated viruses by integrating information from peer‐reviewed publications (PubMed), the ZOVER database, and cytochrome oxidase I ...
