The paper examines how early-life environmental conditions and maternal age affect telomere length in two bat species and finds no link between early telomere length and short-term survival.

This study shows that Molossus molossus bats live longer than previously thought and exhibit minimal telomere shortening with age, challenging assumptions about bat ageing.

The paper introduces the Amphibian Genomics Consortium to address gaps in amphibian genomic resources and promote international collaboration for research and conservation.

The paper evaluates 51 amphibian genomes to assess their utility for functional genomics, finding variation in quality, high transposable element content, and conserved synteny despite divergence.

This study presents the first annotated genome of Hediste diversicolor and evaluates its transcriptomic and behavioral responses to oceanic stressors like pH and temperature changes.

This study uses DNA methylation profiles from bats to show that age and longevity are linked to specific methylation patterns, with longevity associated with immune and cancer-related genes.

The paper generates six reference-quality bat genomes, identifies genomic adaptations related to echolocation, immunity, and viral tolerance, and reveals regulatory elements contributing to bat traits.
