The physiological response of juvenile diploid and triploid Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus to exhaustive exercise

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Triploidy is an effective tool for producing sterile fishes but often results in impaired performance in commercial aquaculture. In light of this, our study compared the physiological response to exhaustive exercise in juvenile diploid and triploid Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus, a polar species with great potential for aquaculture.

Divergent exploratory‐avoidant behavioural strategies may drive niche differentiation in juvenile Antarctic fishes

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We used an ecological niche theory framework integrating physiological and behavioural ecology to understand interspecific differentiation of juveniles of four Antarctic fishes: Trematomus bernacchii, Trematomus pennellii, Trematomus nicolai and Pagothenia borchgrevinki.

The effects of playbacks of anthropogenic noise on the anti‐predator behaviour of Pacific sand lance, Ammodytes personatus

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Noise from human activities has increased and been shown to negatively impact marine animals. Marine mammals and fish are vulnerable to anthropogenic noise because they rely on sound to communicate, find food, avoid predators and sense their environment. Forage fish are small schooling pelagic fish, important to many predators and instrumental

Beyond hypoxia: Context‐dependent transcriptional reprogramming by ERFVIIs

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This Commentary highlights the finding that an increased post‐submergence oxidative burst reprograms plant cysteine oxidase (PCO)—group VII ethylene response factor (ERFVII) oxygen sensing, inhibiting PCO activity and transcriptionally rewiring ERFVIIs toward oxidative stress recovery.

The pectoralis muscle orientation as an indicator of the modes of wing‐propelled locomotion in birds

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
The pectoralis orientation of birds was consistent with the orientation of the aerodynamic force acting on the wing, varying by wing‐propelled locomotion (WPL) mode. The skeletal morphology unique to each WPL mode, related to the origin/insertion of the pectoralis, may be associated with these functional demands of pectoralis orientation.

Black Humanism: Sameness and Difference in Being Human and Being Black in the United Kingdom

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract This essay outlines a variety of responses to a central question pertaining to Black humanism: namely, what does it mean to be a Black human, given the existence of systemic racism within the Body of Christ and in many White majority societies in the African Diaspora, in this case, within the United Kingdom of Great Britain?

Navigating troubled waters: Posthumanist vulnerability and entanglement in Richard Powers's Playground (2024)

open access: yesOrbis Litterarum, EarlyView.
Abstract Richard Powers's most recent novels to date—The Overstory (2018), Bewilderment (2021), and Playground (2024)—engage with some of the environmental and technological threats that loom over our planet, such as deforestation, species loss, the degradation of the ocean bottom, and the risks associated with the development of generative AI ...
