Zoo Biology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The success of nuclear reprogramming techniques, including the G0/G1 synchronization of somatic cells, depends on species‐specific optimization. While roscovitine and serum starvation have been successfully applied in domestic and wild terrestrial mammals, their use in aquatic mammals remains poorly investigated.

Metagenomic Insights Into Red Sea Biodiversity Across the Web of Life
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 8, August 2026.Deep‐sequencing shotgun metagenomics of Red Sea benthic sediments reveals biodiversity across the web of life, from viruses to animals. Despite the strong dominance of prokaryotic DNA, low‐abundance eukaryotic reads capture broad taxonomic diversity. Open‐ocean communities are primarily structured by depth, whereas coastal eukaryotic communities follow

Zoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 435-443, July/August 2026.This study established the first fecal hormonal reference values (P4/E2) for the Greater Caribbean manatee. Using non‐invasive ELISA, the authors found no significant differences between mature and immature females, highlighting that long‐term monitoring and ultrasounds are essential to fully understand their complex reproductive cycles.

Breaking Constraint: Axial Patterning in Trichechus (Mammalia: Sirenia) [PDF]
, 2014 Meristic variation is often limited in serially homologous systems with high internal differentiation and high developmental modularity. The mammalian neck, an extreme example, has a fixed (at seven) count of diversely specialized segments. Imposition of

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.ABSTRACT The American manatee (Trichechus manatus) requires freshwater mainly from rivers and springs to maintain osmoregulatory balance in saline environments. However, in Brazil's semi‐arid Potiguar Basin, manatees now rely solely on submarine freshwater springs because hypersaline estuaries have become unsuitable sources of freshwater.

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Aquatic ecosystems worldwide face increasing human–wildlife conflicts as fishing activities overlap with critical habitats for vulnerable species. Human–wildlife interactions in artisanal fisheries exemplify socio‐ecological systems that necessitate adaptive management approaches, integrating ecological and social dimensions.
