Plant litter chemistry and associated changes in microbial decomposition under drought

This study examines how a decade-long drought affects plant litter chemistry and microbial decomposition in a semi-arid ecosystem, finding minimal direct effects on decomposition rates but significant changes in microbial community composition and function.

Water body size shapes body size evolution via subgenomic selection in allopolyploid fish

The paper shows that water body size affects body size in allopolyploid fish through subgenomic selection, impacting genetic diversity, gene regulation, and chromatin accessibility.

The chromosomal-level genome assembly and comprehensive transcriptomes of Chinese razor clam (Sinonovacula constricta) with deep-burrowing life style and broad-range salinity adaptation

This paper presents a high-quality chromosomal-level genome and comprehensive transcriptomes of the Chinese razor clam, revealing genomic features related to its burrowing lifestyle and salinity adaptation.

Chimeras Link to Tandem Repeats and Transposable Elements in Tetraploid Hybrid Fish

The paper identifies DNA chimeras linked to tandem repeats and transposable elements in allotetraploid fish, showing their role in balancing sub-genomes and reducing genomic shock.

Chimeric Genes Revealed in the Polyploidy Fish Hybrids of Carassius cuvieri (Female) x Megalobrama amblycephala (Male)

The paper analyzes polyploid fish hybrids to identify chimeric and mutated genes, finding high proportions in both tetraploid and triploid hybrids and linking some to phenotypic traits.
