Transgenerational plasticity of dispersal‐related traits in a ciliate: genotype‐dependency and fitness consequences

, 2021
Phenotypic plasticity, the ability of one genotype to produce different phenotypes in different environments, plays a central role in species' response to environmental changes.

Vitamin B12 induces memory of predation through vitellogenin provisioning

Nature Communications
Nutritional effects on trait inheritance are widespread in animals including human famines, representing some of the most severe environmental influences on organismal phenotypes and can be transmitted over generations.

Impact of light pollution on fishes: Mechanisms and ecological consequences

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing prevalence of artificial light at night (ALAN) is of growing ecological concern. By altering natural light regimes, ALAN affects the behaviour, physiology and life‐history of organisms. While research has largely focused on terrestrial ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems are increasingly exposed.

DNA methylome responses to biotic and abiotic stress in Arabidopsis thaliana: A multi‐study analysis

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Sixteen Arabidopsis thaliana Whole‐Genome Bisulfite Sequencing datasets have been analysed to reveal common and stress‐specific DNA methylation responses. Although global methylation levels remained stable, specific DMRs varied according to the type of stress and genomics context.

Epigenetic Inheritance Across the Landscape

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
The study of epigenomic variation at the landscape-level in plants may add important insight to studies of adaptive variation. A major goal of landscape genomic studies is to identify genomic regions contributing to adaptive variation across the ...

Performative Anchoring Practices and the Making of Belonging in Diaspora

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how Greekness is constructed and negotiated by a member of the Greek second generation in Italy, a population largely absent from contemporary diaspora scholarship. Through a biographical and socio‐anthropological approach grounded in long‐term ethnographic fieldwork, the study shows how belonging emerges not as inherited

Impact of living and training at low altitude for several years on endurance performance at higher altitude: Myth or reality

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The physiological adaptations of long‐term high‐altitude residents without high‐altitude genetic ancestry remain poorly characterized. This study investigated whether permanent residence at low altitude (1200 m) influences performance at higher altitude (2500 m). We compared exercise responses at 2500 m in endurance‐trained athletes living for

Mapping the Influence of Light Intensity on the Transgenerational Genetic Architecture of Arabidopsis thaliana

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Light is a crucial environmental factor that influences the phenotypic development of plants. Despite extensive studies on the physiological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms of the impact of light on phenotypes, genetic investigations regarding ...

Temperature‐Sensitive Juvenile Fitness Traits Show Correlated and Genetically Defined Variation in a Heatwave‐Affected Marine Fish

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 4, December 2026.
Juvenile Pacific cod are sensitive to temperature, with lipid reserves and growth declining at high temperature (16°C). However, individuals that maintain the highest growth also have the greatest lipid reserves. This variation is partly associated with genetic differences, suggesting potential for genetic selection under future warming.

Cold Plasma‐Mediated Seed Priming: Plant Stress Responses and Potential Ecological Implications

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 6, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold plasma (CP) is being investigated as a non‐thermal seed treatment because studies have reported effects on germination, early seedling growth, plant responses to stress, and seed‐borne microorganisms. These effects have been linked to the generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS), changes in seed‐surface ...
