Chestnut extract but not sodium salicylate decrease the severity of diarrhea and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli F4 shedding in artificially infected piglets

This study tests chestnut extract and sodium salicylate as alternatives to antibiotics in piglets with post-weaning diarrhea, finding that chestnut extract improves growth and reduces diarrhea severity.

Impact of deleterious mutations, sexually antagonistic selection and mode of recombination suppression on transitions between male and female heterogamety.

The paper uses simulations to study how mutations, sexual antagonism, and recombination suppression affect transitions between male and female heterogamety.

Assessing natural selection during range expansions: Insights from a spatially explicit ABC study

This study uses spatially explicit ABC simulations to assess natural selection during range expansions, finding that isolation-by-distance statistics reliably estimate selection strength despite genetic and demographic noise.
