Summary: The study found that exposing fish to a regimen of 48 hours of natural ambient photoperiod alternating with 24 hours of constant light effectively delayed gonad development and puberty onset in brook trout, leading to increased somatic growth.

Summary: This study found that climate change has negative impacts on the distributions of native and invasive trout species in the northern Rocky Mountains of the USA. The occupancy rates of bull trout and cutthroat trout decreased over time, with different reasons behind these declines, requiring species-specific management actions.

Summary: The study successfully predicted the holding velocity of brook charr using the optimal foraging model, suggesting that NEI maximization is a key factor affecting their habitat choice. The results also support the general usefulness of this model in describing the behavior of stream fishes.

Summary: The study highlights the successful recovery of an adfluvial brook trout population in Washington Harbor, Isle Royale National Park, Lake Superior following the implementation of catch-and-release regulations in 2004. The research shows an increase in brook trout abundance and distribution in Washington Harbor since the late 1990s and early 2000s, likely attributed to protective regulations and improved water flows in recent years. Annual tag detection rates of Washington Harbor brook trout in Washington Creek ranged from 25% in 2009 to 100% in 2011 and 2013, with an average of 60.7% throughout the study period.

Summary: The population structure of the ornate dog tick in Eastern Europe exhibits an east-west gradient, which may be influenced by geographic factors and genetic evolution. This finding is crucial for assessing disease transmission risks and predicting future spread.

Summary: Climate change has led to a significant decline in red spruce populations in the Southern Appalachians. The study found that red spruce has undergone introgressive hybridization with black spruce, and the northern populations of red spruce have higher genetic diversity and differentiation. Fossil data suggests that red spruce and black spruce occupied separate refugia during the last glaciation period and experienced post-glacial migration and hybridization. The projected climate change may lead to the extinction of pure southern red spruce populations.

Summary: The study reveals that the population and distribution of Bull Trout in their native range are declining due to historic overharvest, invasive non-native species, and habitat loss. While there is evidence of genetic differentiation, significant isolation-by-distance patterns were not observed in the Athabasca River basin.

Summary: This study examined the impact of thermal acclimation on thermal tolerance in brook trout embryos. The results showed that warm acclimation can increase the upper thermal tolerance of the embryos, although the variability of CTmax was higher than typical for other salmonids.

Summary: Studies have shown that a small, isolated population of rooks in north-western Iberia may have originated from glacial refugia in Europe after the last glacial period. Limited gene flow suggests recent colonization and local breeding recruitment in the Iberian population.

Summary: While significant changes in effective population size were observed in Iberian refuge populations during the Quaternary, there is little evidence to suggest that these changes were shared across the seven species of chalcid parasitoid wasps associated with oak cynipid galls, indicating largely idiosyncratic demographic histories within this ecological guild.

Summary: Understanding the factors driving successful species invasions is crucial for conservation and mitigating economic impacts. However, there have been few whole-genome studies investigating the contributions of neutral and adaptive genetic variation in successful introductions. This study examined neutral and adaptive variation in introduced brook trout populations and found that introduction success may not always be strongly influenced by genetic load, and differentiation among populations can be idiosyncratic or stochastic. The results suggest that colonization barriers in some introduced species may be overcome by propagule pressure or benign environmental conditions.

Summary: Genetic differentiation in a hemiparasitic mistletoe is primarily influenced by geographical context rather than habitat disturbance. However, disturbance can indirectly affect mistletoe population genetic differentiation through seed dispersal and inbreeding.

Summary: The study found that an optimal level of dietary carbohydrate could improve growth performance in juvenile brook trout. However, excessive intake of dietary carbohydrates may decrease innate immunity status, increase oxidative stress, and reduce resistance to hypoxia stress in brook trout.

Summary: The study found significant environmental niche differences between phylogeographic lineages of bank voles from different glacial refugia, suggesting a role for local adaptation. Models reveal that neglecting intraspecific niche differences may lead to errors in predicting species responses to climate change.

Summary: The protein complexes of the mitochondrial electron transport chain exist in isolation and in higher order assemblies known as supercomplexes or respirasomes. In a study, it was found that inhibiting the de novo pyrimidine synthesis enzyme DHODH can increase respirasome assembly and activity, while bypassing this inhibition through uridine supplementation decreases respirasome assembly. These findings demonstrate a link between nucleotide pools, peroxisomes, mitochondrial phospholipids, and cell growth rates.
