The genome and developmental transcriptome of the strongylid nematode Haemonchus contortus [PDF]
Background: The barber's pole worm, Haemonchus contortus, is one of the most economically important parasites of small ruminants worldwide. Although this parasite can be controlled using anthelmintic drugs, resistance against most drugs in common use has

Non‐Canonical, Somatic‐Dependent Vertical Transmission of Wolbachia in an Aphid
We discovered a novel somatic‐associated Wolbachia transmission strategy in cedar bark aphids (Cinara cedri), contrasting with its typical maternal vertical transmission. This unique maternally retained somatic re‐acquisition strategy—a “piggybacking” on the highly efficient obligate symbiont transmission pathway—reveals diverse endosymbiont strategies

The normal aging process is associated with stereotyped changes in gene expression, but the regulators responsible for these age-dependent changes are poorly understood.

Prioritising research on endocrine disruption in the marine environment: a global perspective
ABSTRACT A healthy ocean is a crucial life support system that regulates the global climate, is a source of oxygen and supports major economic activities. A vast and understudied biodiversity from micro‐ to macro‐organisms is integral to ocean health.

The process of assembly of apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoprotein particles occurs co-translationally after disulfide-dependent folding of the N-terminal domain of apoB but the mechanism is not understood.

Environmental contamination with the synthetic estrogen 17α‐ethinyl estradiol (EE2) is widespread in coastal ecosystems, yet behavioural effects in marine fishes remain poorly understood. We exposed southern crested weedfish (Cristiceps australis) to low and high EE2 concentrations for 14 days and assessed boldness and anxiety using a refuge‐use assay.

The life cycle of European eel (Anguilla anguilla), a catadromous species, is complex and enigmatic. In nature, during the silvering process prior to their long spawning migration, reproductive development is arrested, and they cease feeding.

Inter-individual variability in reproductive success and somatic growth in Cichlasoma dimerus (Heckel, 1840) [PDF]
Environmental factors and social interactions are known to affect somatic growth and reproduction in teleost fish. It has been described for Cichlasoma dimerus that only one pair is formed under a wide range of laboratory conditions.

Comprehensive genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes reveal 14,637 genes in Listronotus oregonensis, advancing genetic insights into a key agricultural pest. Compared with related species, L. oregonensis exhibits reduced chemoreceptor gene families but expanded detoxification gene clusters, reflecting its narrow host range and adaptability.
