A chromosomal inversion may facilitate adaptation despite periodic gene flow in a freshwater fish

The paper identifies a chromosomal inversion in walleye fish that may promote adaptive divergence despite gene flow between lakes.

A synthesis of senescence predictions for indeterminate growth, and support from multiple tests in wild lake trout

The paper tests senescence predictions in wild lake trout, finding negligible senescence when maximum size is only slightly larger than maturation size, and potential negative senescence in populations with larger maximum sizes.

Morphology and Blood Metabolites Reflect Recent Spatial Differences Among Lake Winnipeg Walleye, Sander vitreus

This study examines spatial differences in growth and blood metabolites of Lake Winnipeg walleye, finding reduced growth and elevated amino acids in the north basin, suggesting nutritional limitations.

Applying a gene-suite approach to examine the physiological status of wild-caught walleye (Sander vitreus)

This study uses a gene-suite approach with transcriptomic analysis to assess sub-lethal physiological stress in wild walleye held in a marsh with poor water quality.

Serum biochemistry suggests grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have poorer physiological condition in urban settings

The paper examines serum biochemistry in urban and rural grey squirrels, finding higher blood glucose and lower electrolytes in urban squirrels, suggesting greater environmental stress.

Inactivation of thermogenic UCP1 as a historical contingency in multiple placental mammal clades

The paper shows that inactivation of UCP1 occurred in multiple placental mammal clades and is linked to reduced metabolic intensity and increased body mass during periods of global cooling.
