The vast majority (95%) of individuals were genetically assigned to the eastern Atlantic population, which migrates between spawning grounds in the Mediterranean and feeding grounds in the Northeast Atlantic.

Furthermore, results show limited genetic connectivity between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic basins, supporting the hypothesis of two distinct populations of blue shark separated by the Strait of Gibraltar. Although reproductive interactions may be limited, the faint genetic signal of differentiation suggests a recent common history between these units. Therefore, Mediterranean blue sharks may function akin to a metapopulation relying upon local demographic processes and connectivity dynamics, whereby the limited contemporary gene flow replenishment from the Atlantic may interplay with currently poorly regulated commercial catches and large-scale ecosystem changes.

Based on the unique genetic profile and demographic analysis, this study corroborated previous studies using genetic markers that the Hainan Eld's deer warrants the taxonomic status of a distinct subspecies.

In contrast, much less is known about the consequences of sublethal effects, which are more challenging to detect, particularly in wild species with cryptic life histories. This necessitates the development of molecular tools to identify their signatures. In a split-clutch field experiment, we relocated clutches of wild, nesting loggerhead sea turtles (<i>Caretta caretta</i>) to an in situ hatchery. Eggs were then split into two sub-clutches and incubated under shallow or deep conditions, with those in the shallow treatment experiencing significantly higher temperatures in otherwise natural conditions. Although no difference in hatching success was observed between treatments, hatchlings from the shallow, warmer treatment had different length–mass relationships and were weaker at locomotion tests than their siblings incubated in the deep, cooler treatment. To characterise the molecular signatures of these thermal effects, we performed whole genome bisulfite sequencing on blood samples collected upon emergence. We identified 287 differentially methylated sites between hatchlings from different treatments, including on genes with neurodevelopmental, cytoskeletal, and lipid metabolism functions. Taken together, our results show that higher incubation temperatures induce sublethal effects in hatchlings, which are reflected in their DNA methylation status at identified sites. These sites could be used as biomarkers of thermal stress, especially if they are retained across life stages. Overall, this study suggests that global warming reduces hatchling fitness, which has implications for dispersal capacity and ultimately a population's adaptive potential. Conservation efforts for these endangered species and similar climate-threatened taxa will therefore benefit from strategies for monitoring and mitigating exposure to temperatures that induce sublethal effects.</p>","PeriodicalId":168,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Applications","volume":"17 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eva.70013","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142234750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, such conservation yardsticks do not explicitly consider genetic or genomic diversity (GD), even though GD is positively associated with contemporary evolutionary fitness, individual viability, and with future evolutionary potential. To test whether populations of genome sequences could help improve conservation assessments, we estimated GD metrics from 82 publicly available mammalian datasets and examined their statistical association with attributes related to conservation. We also considered intrinsic biological factors, including trophic level and body mass, that could impact GD and quantified their relative influences. Our results identify key population GD metrics that are both reflective and predictive of IUCN conservation categories. Specifically, our analyses revealed that Watterson's theta (the population mutation rate) and autozygosity (a product of inbreeding) are associated with the current Red List categorization, likely because demographic declines that lead to “listing” decisions also reduce levels of standing genetic variation. We argue that by virtue of this relationship, conservation organizations like IUCN could leverage emerging genome sequence data to help categorize Red List threat rankings (especially in otherwise data-deficient species) and/or enhance Green Status assessments to establish a baseline for future population monitoring. Thus, our paper (1) outlines the theoretical and empirical justification for a new GD-based assessment criterion, (2) provides a bioinformatic pipeline for estimating GD from population genomic data, and (3) suggests an analytical framework that can be used to measure baseline GD while providing quantitative GD context for consideration by conservation authorities.</p>","PeriodicalId":168,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Applications","volume":"17 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eva.70000","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To experimentally study how many challenges from the cellular (including gene expression) to the life history levels are overcome in polyploid evolution, a system in which polyploidy can be reliably induced and sustained over generations is crucial. Until now, this has not been possible with animals, as polyploidy notoriously causes first-generation lethality. The parasitoid wasp <i>Nasonia vitripennis</i> emerges as a stunningly well-suited model. Polyploidy can be induced in this haplodiploid system through (1) silencing genes in the sex determination cascade and (2) by colchicine injection to induce meiotic segregation failure. <i>Nasonia</i> polyploids produce many generations in a short time, making them a powerful tool for experimental evolution studies. The strong variation observed in <i>Nasonia</i> polyploid phenotypes aids the identification of polyploid mechanisms that are the difference between evolutionary dead ends and successes. Polyploid evolution research benefits from decades of <i>Nasonia</i> research that produced extensive reference—omics data sets, facilitating the advanced studies of polyploid effects on the genome and transcriptome. It is also possible to create both inbred lines (to control for genetic background effects) and outbred lines (to conduct polyploid selection regimes). The option of interspecific crossing further allows to directly contrast autopolyploidy (intraspecific polyploidy) to allopolyploidy (hybrid polyploidy). <i>Nasonia</i> can also be used to investigate the nascent field of using polyploidy in biological control to improve field performance and lower ecological risk. In short, <i>Nasonia</i> polyploids are an exceptional tool for researching various biological paradigms.</p>","PeriodicalId":168,"journal":{"name":"Evolutionary Applications","volume":"17 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eva.13706","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142165218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
