The genome and developmental transcriptome of the strongylid nematode Haemonchus contortus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
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

Roles of the developmental regulator unc-62/Homothorax in limiting longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
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

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 2, Page 848-868, April 2026.
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.

N-terminal domain of apolipoprotein B has structural homology to lipovitellin and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein: a “lipid pocket” model for self-assembly of apoB-containing lipoprotein particles

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
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.

Exposure to the Oestrogenic Pollutant 17α‐Ethinyl Estradiol (EE2) Does Not Alter the Behaviour of a Coastal Marine Fish, Cristiceps australis

open access: yesEthology, Volume 132, Issue 4, Page 295-304, April 2026.
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.

Unravelling the changes during induced vitellogenesis in female European eel through RNA-Seq: What happens to the liver?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 2014
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.

The genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes of the carrot weevil, Listronotus oregonensis, reveal adaptive mechanisms for host specialisation and symbiotic interactions

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 126-138, April 2026.
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.

Analysis of gene expression in female American lobsters (Homarus americanus) to determine reproductive status by oligonucleotide microarray analysis

open access: yes, 2013
The American lobster (Homarus americanus) is harvested along the eastern seaboard of North America and forms the economic backbone of many small fishing communities in Atlantic Canada and the northeastern United States.
