Journal Article
Nunn, A. D., Moccetti, P., & Hänfling, B. (in press). The genome sequence of the Eurasian minnow, Phoxinus phoxinus (Linnaeus, 1758). Wellcome Open Research, 9, Article 504. https://doi.org/10.12688/wellcomeopenres.22867.1

We present a genome assembly from an individual female Phoxinus phoxinus (the Eurasian minnow; Chordata; Actinopteri; Cypriniformes; Leuciscidae). The genome sequence spans 950.50 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 25 chromosomal pseu... Read More about The genome sequence of the Eurasian minnow, Phoxinus phoxinus (Linnaeus, 1758).

Towards the conservation of the crucian carp in Europe: Prolific hybridization but no evidence for introgression between native and non-native taxa (2024)
Journal Article
Jeffries, D., Lawson-Handley, L., Lamatsch, D., Olsén, K. H., Sayer, C. D., & Hänfling, B. (2024). Towards the conservation of the crucian carp in Europe: Prolific hybridization but no evidence for introgression between native and non-native taxa. Molecular ecology, 33(19), Article e17515. https://doi.org/10.1111/mec.17515

Hybridization plays a pivotal role in evolution, influencing local adaptation and speciation. However, it can also reduce biodiversity, which is especially damaging when native and non-native species meet. Hybridization can threaten native species vi...

Investigating the role of non-helpers in group living thrips (2024)
Data
Gilbert, J. (2024). Investigating the role of non-helpers in group living thrips. [Data]. https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.rjdfn2zmp

Behavioural variation among individuals is a hallmark of cooperative societies, which commonly contain breeders and non-breeders, helpers and non-helpers. In some cases, labour is divided, with non-breeders “helping”. Conversely, in some societies, s... Read More about Investigating the role of non-helpers in group living thrips.

The origins of mammal growth patterns during the Jurassic mammalian radiation (2024)
Journal Article
Newham, E., Corfe, I. J., Brewer, P., Bright, J. A., Fernandez, V., Gostling, N. J., Hoffmann, S., Jäger, K. R., Kague, E., Lovric, G., Marone, F., Panciroli, E., Schneider, P., Schultz, J.

Science Advances, 10(32), eado4555. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.ado4555

We use synchrotron x-ray tomography of annual growth increments in the dental cementum of mammaliaforms (stem and crown fossil mammals) from three faunas across the Jurassic to map the origin of patterns of mammalian growth patterns, which are intrin...

Diverse migration strategies of ariid catfishes along a salinity gradient in the Mekong River (2024)
Journal Article
Vu, A. V., Baumgartner, L. J., Limburg, K. E., Gillanders, B. M., Mallen-Cooper, M., Howitt, J. A., Thiem, J. D., Doran, G. S., Kewish, C. M., & Cowx, I. G. (2024).

Ariid catfishes (Ariidae family) are important migratory fish species in the Mekong River, with some species representing a major harvest component from the river. Limited biological information exists, and in particular their migration patterns are...

Rethinking fish-friendliness of pumps by shifting focus to both safe and timely fish passage for effective conservation (2024)
Journal Article
Evans, O. J., Norman, J., Carter, L. J., Hutchinson, T., Don, A., Wright, R. M., Tuhtan, J. A., Toming, G., & Bolland, J. D. (2024). Rethinking fish-friendliness of pumps by shifting focus to both safe and timely fish passage for effective conservation. Scientific reports, 14(1), Article 17888. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-67870-5

Globally, catadromous freshwater eels of the genus Anguilla are of conservation concern, including critically endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla). Pumping stations that move river water to a higher elevation severely impact eels during their...

Beavers in Holderness and the Hull Valley (2024)
Journal Article
Gómez, A., & Middleton, R. (2024). Beavers in Holderness and the Hull Valley. The naturalist, 1116, 81-93

Introduction The Eurasian Beaver, Castor fiber (Fig.1 and Front Cover), is the largest European rodent species and is strongly associated with riparian habitats. Their tree felling, dam and lodge building, and channel-digging activities make them eco... Read More about Beavers in Holderness and the Hull Valley.

Society and education is inherently ableist. Disabled people are routinely excluded from education, or have poorer outcomes within educational systems. Improving educational experiences and outcomes for people of colour have required educators to des...
