Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...

Geographical Variation in Thermal Adaptation of the Asiatic Toad (Bufo gargarizans)
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Northern and southern populations of Bufo gargarizans exhibit coordinated divergence in thermal preference, resting metabolic rate, and TRPM4 temperature sensitivity along a climatic gradient. ABSTRACT Thermal adaptation in animals can manifest in multiple dimensions, yet few studies have integrated behavioral, physiological, and molecular perspectives

Integrated Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveals the Genetic Basis of Phenotypic Variation in Tibetan Sheep
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.SNaPshot‐validated GWAS results demonstrated significant correlations between candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and body size traits in Tibetan sheep. Concurrently, hematoxylin and eosin staining, alongside muscle fiber analysis, confirmed pronounced morphological differences in muscle tissue between sheep of varying conformation.

Genomic Diversity of the Endangered Guinan Toad‐Headed Lizard and Its Conservation Implications
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We produced HiFi long reads and assembled a high‐quality genome for the Guinan toad‐headed lizard—Phrynocephalus guinanensis—and present a comprehensive conservation genomics assessment. Our findings clearly show population structure, a reduced genetic diversity pattern, and a strong bottleneck in demographic history, reaffirming the endangered status ...

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.The study examined multiscale factors influencing walnut fruit infestations by the invasive pest fly Rhagoletis completa. Infestation rates increased with fruit size, host tree abundance, grasslands, hedgerows and temperatures, but decreased with anthropogenic habitats and heavy spring rainfall.
