Dec 12, 2019
Krüppel-associated box (KRAB)-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are encoded in the hundreds by the genomes of higher vertebrates, and many act with the heterochromatin-inducing KAP1 as repressors of transposable elements...

At the start of 2018, multiple incidents of dog illnesses were reported following consumption of marine species washed up onto the beaches of eastern England after winter storms. Over a two-week period, nine confirmed illnesses...
Domestication via the commensal pathway in a fish-invertebrate mutualism.
Rohan M Brooker, Jordan M Casey, Zara-Louise Cowan, Tiffany L Sih, Danielle L Dixson, Andrea Manica, William E Feeney
Feb 01, 2021
Domesticator-domesticate relationships are specialized mutualisms where one species provides multigenerational support to another in exchange for a resource or service, and through which both partners gain an advantage over...
Dietary cost associated with adherence to the Mediterranean diet, and its variation by socio-economic factors in the UK Fenland Study.

Feb 16, 2018
High cost of healthy foods could be a barrier to healthy eating. We aimed to examine the association between dietary cost and adherence to the Mediterranean diet in a non-Mediterranean country. We evaluated cross-sectional data...

Problems in biodiversity conservation tend to be highly complex, encompassing both biological and social systems and their interactions (1). Many have argued for multidisciplinary research in conservation, particularly a more...
Automated identification of Monogeneans using digital image processing and K-nearest neighbour approaches.
BACKGROUND: Monogeneans are flatworms (Platyhelminthes) that are primarily found on gills and skin of fishes. Monogenean parasites have attachment appendages at their haptoral regions that help them to move about the body...

An environmental (pre)history of European fishing
James H Barrett
Mar 27, 2019
This paper explores the past and potential contribution of archaeology to marine historical ecology. The primary focus is European fishing of marine and diadromous taxa, with global comparisons highlighting the wider...
Genomic consequences of domestication of the Siamese fighting fish.

Apr 09, 2022
Siamese fighting (betta) fish are among the most popular and morphologically diverse pet fish, but the genetic bases of their domestication and phenotypic diversification are largely unknown. We assembled de novo the genome of a...
What made Stan Wood a great collector?
Stan Wood was an exceptional fossil collector who, over a collecting career of more than 40 years, provided British palaeontology with an abundance and variety of new Carboniferous fossils the like of which had not been...
