To bridge this gap, we present a manually curated gene list tailored for teleost fish transcriptomics. This resource focuses on key biological processes crucial for understanding teleost fish physiology, development, and adaptation, including hormone signaling, various metabolic pathways, appetite regulation, digestion, gastrointestinal function, vision, ossification, osmoregulation, and pigmentation. Developed through collaborative efforts of specialists in diverse fields, the list prioritizes genes with established roles in teleost physiology, experimental evidence, and conservation across species. This curated list aims to provide researchers with a reliable starting point for transcriptomic analyses, offering a carefully evaluated set of genes relevant to current research priorities. By streamlining the process of gene selection and interpretation, this resource supports the broader teleost fish research community in designing and analyzing studies that investigate molecular responses to developmental and environmental changes. We encourage the scientific community to collaboratively expand and refine this list, ensuring its continued relevance and utility for teleost fish research.</p>","PeriodicalId":15682,"journal":{"name":"Journal of experimental zoology.

Suture complexity, or interdigitation, provides a large absorptive capacity for mechanical stress. Deer are unique among ungulates by the presence of antlers only in males. In particular, Neotropical species exhibit a great diversity in terms of morphology, weight, sexual size dimorphism (absence or presence), and ecology. To evaluate the relationship of suture interdigitation with the mechanical stress produced by antlers, we quantified the complexity of the interfrontal and coronal sutures using fractal dimension (D) in six Neotropical deer species. Utilizing the occlusal tooth area (OTA) of the first upper molar as a proxy of age, we analyze changes of D throughout postnatal ontogeny and test for sexual dimorphism. In all species, ontogenetic series indicate an increase of complexity of both sutures with OTA. Overall, the species with a significant sexual dimorphism in body size and antlers with more than one tine show the more complex sutures, with the presence of greater interdigitation in adult males than in females, regardless of the existence of intraspecific fights during the rut. This is the first study where sexual dimorphism in cranial suture complexity in relation to the presence of antlers in deer is reported, suggesting the role of the interfrontal and coronal sutures on the dissipation of mechanical stress forces produced by the presence of antlers.</p>","PeriodicalId":15682,"journal":{"name":"Journal of experimental zoology.

In this study, we utilized publicly available RNA-seq data to examine the expression of newly evolved open reading frames (neORFs) in comparison to non- and protein-coding genes in Drosophila melanogaster populations from the derived species range in Europe and the ancestral range in sub-Saharan Africa. Our datasets included two adult tissue types as well as whole bodies at two temperatures for both sexes and three larval/prepupal developmental stages in a single tissue and sex, which allowed us to examine neORF expression and divergence across multiple sample types as well as sex and population. We detected a relatively large proportion (approximately 50%) of annotated neORFs as expressed in the population samples, with neORFs often showing greater expression divergence between populations than non- or protein-coding genes. However, differential expression of neORFs between populations tended to occur in a sample type-specific manner. On the other hand, neORFs displayed less sex-biased expression than the other two gene classes, with the majority of sex-biased neORFs detected in whole bodies, which may be attributable to the presence of the gonads. We also found that neORFs shared among multiple lines in the original set of inbred lines in which they were first detected were more likely to be both expressed and differentially expressed in the new population samples, suggesting that neORFs at a higher frequency (i.e. present in more individuals) within a species are more likely to be functional.</p>","PeriodicalId":15682,"journal":{"name":"Journal of experimental zoology.

In addition, sponges rapidly renew their aquiferous system to maintain a healthy. This study describes the reparative regeneration in the cold-water demosponge <i>Halichondria panicea</i>. The wide range of methods allow us to make a comprehensive analysis of mechanisms, which contribute to the regeneration in this species, including morphogenetic process, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cytotoxicity. The regeneration in <i>H. panicea</i> includes three main stages: internal milieu isolation, wound healing - epithelization, and restoration of damaged structures. The main morphogenetical mechanisms of regeneration are epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition during the first 12 h post operation (hpo) followed by blastema formation and mesenchymal-to-epithelial transformation leading to the restoration of damaged structures. These processes can be explained by active cell dedifferentiation and transdifferentiation, participation of resident pluripotent cells (archaeocyte-like cells and choanocytes), by migration of pluripotent cells (archaeocyte-like cells), and by activation of proliferation and apoptosis. The rate of apoptosis becomes homogeneous in regeneration area and in intact tissues at 12 hpo at a significantly higher rate than at 0 hpo. The reduction of sponge toxicity at 6 hpo looks like a necessary step for activation of repair processes. However, after 24 hpo, the toxicity exceeded the initial (0 hpo) level. At 96 hpo, the aquiferous system is completely restored. The ability for rapid wound epithelialization, as well as the morphological and functional restoration of damaged tissues, can be considered as a form of sponge's adaptation to extreme conditions in cold shallow water, acquired in the course of evolution.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15682,"journal":{"name":"Journal of experimental zoology.

One of the earliest major events of this reorganization occurs during the time of the maternal-zygotic transition (MZT), when the control of the developmental process gradually shifts from maternal factors (initially present within the oocytes) to the genes of the embryo itself. As maternal transcripts and proteins are degraded, parental epigenetic information is often erased, and pioneer factors will turn on the transcriptional activity of the zygotic genome. This activation also coincides with the decompaction of the chromatin, which is essential for the successful initiation of gene expression in the zygote. Interestingly, in the past decades numerous studies reported findings that supported the role of noncanonical nucleotides in the process of MZT. These nucleobase moieties in these noncanonical nucleotides are covalently modified versions of the canonical bases, and often show a very dynamic presence within the genome. While most of the recent studies have deciphered in great detail the epigenetic role of methylcytosine and its derivates, other Noncanonical bases have received less attention. Here we suggest that the incorporation of nucleotides from deoxyuridine-triphosphate (dUTP) or 6-methyl-deoxyadenine-triphosphate (6m-dATP) into the genome is not mere noise or replication error but serves a well-defined purpose: to aid chromatin decompaction through the timely induction of DNA repair pathways.</p>","PeriodicalId":15682,"journal":{"name":"Journal of experimental zoology.

One reason for the lack of this information is that comparative transcriptome analysis of termites with their sister group, the cockroach genus <i>Cryptocercus</i>, has not been conducted. We identified genes associated with three vital hormones (juvenile hormone [JH], 20-hydoroxyecdysone [20E], and insulin) from the genome sequence of <i>Cryptocercus punctulatus</i> and conducted RNA-seq analysis using the heads of female/male adults and nymphs to elucidate their expression levels. The comprehensive gene expression analysis revealed a multitude of genes exhibiting differences in expression between developmental stages rather than between sexes. Subsequently, we compared the differences in expression patterns of each hormone-related gene by combining the results of a previous RNA-seq study conducted on the heads of castes (reproductives, workers, and soldiers) in the termite <i>Reticulitermes speratus</i>. The results indicated that genes with expression differences among castes in <i>R. speratus</i>, particularly those related to JH and 20E, were significantly more abundant compared to genes with expression differences between adults and nymphs in <i>C. punctulatus</i>. While no significant difference was observed in the number of genes within the insulin signaling pathway, a trend of homologs highly expressed in adult woodroaches but not in adult termites was observed, and the expression patterns of positive and negative regulators in the pathway differed significantly between adults and nymphs.

I was obsessed with Disney's Dinosaur movie as a toddler, and grew up catching bugs, watching tons of Animal Planet, and interacting closely with the urban wildlife around me. When I was in middle school, I remember being amazed by a nature documentary explaining how a population of brown bears that ventured into the Arctic accumulated incrementally beneficial mutations over thousands of generations to evolve into polar bears—I think that was the moment that got me to really understand a bit of how evolution works, and I've enjoyed understanding the processes that lead to natural diversity ever since.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I moved to the United States for college and was lucky to work on two (broadly speaking) evolutionary projects as an undergrad, one with a geneticist and another with a statistician. In my senior year, I took a course in developmental biology since I started recognizing it as the bridge between evolution and genetics. And even when I was a research assistant after college in a lab developing neurogenomic technologies, I found myself drawn to the molecular biology of quirky organisms—I remember reading about the genome of the scaly-foot snail (which can grow iron-mineralized scales!) and would chat with labmates about the molecular basis of temperature-dependent sex determination. I think that it was around then that I realized the type of biologist I want to be is one who can integrate evolutionary, developmental, and genomic lines of inquiry to better understand organisms and their biology.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;My graduate program is in Molecular Biology, and I came to Princeton without a specific lab in mind—the program requires students to do three rotations as first years to decide which lab to join for their thesis work. Since I had enjoyed developing a sequencing-based technology during my post-bac, the first two labs I rotated in were CRISPR-based technology development labs. On a whim, I decided to join the Mallarino lab for my last rotation, to be able to study a novel biological system. Pretty soon, I realized that I enjoyed my interactions with labmates, many of whom, like me, were passionate about biodiversity, and were excited to use cutting-edge technologies to better understand it. It is this shared passion and the community in the lab that initially drew me to EvoDevo work for my PhD.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For me, I think the three are intertwined.
