This study characterizes transcriptional changes in three tissues of pink salmon during spawning migration, identifying catabolic processes, immune responses, and hormone receptor dynamics associated with semelparous maturation.

The paper creates a homology guide for six Oncorhynchus salmon species to analyze duplicate retention and rediploidization patterns after a whole genome duplication event, finding retained duplicates are more adaptive.

The paper identifies 35 new human safe harbor sites for genome engineering and validates their utility through experimental tests and toolkit development.

This paper describes the developmental dynamics of fluorescent chromatophores in the daggerblade grass shrimp, highlighting their presence, distribution, and changes across life stages.
