Parasitism is widespread among fishes in nature and can have significant impacts on individuals, populations, and communities. The family Cymothoidae includes over 380 species of parasitic isopods that infect a wide variety of host fishes, mostly in tropical and subtropical oceans. Despite their conspicuous nature, spatiotemporal patterns of infestation and effects on hosts have been studied for only a small percentage of spec...
Mind the Gap: Performance Limits of Automated Contour Extraction Methods for Individual Monitoring of Bottlenose DolphinsNARA Subscribed
Reliable extraction of dolphin whistle contours is fundamental for scalable analyses of vocal identity, repertoire structure, and individual‐based acoustic monitoring. We evaluated four algorithms for fundamental frequency estimation of common bottlenose dolphin ( Tursiops truncatus ) whistles, leveraging a benchmark dataset of annotated whistles from known animals to assess performance across individuals and as a function of...
High‐Throughput Sequencing in Aquaculture Disease Investigations: Challenges and Opportunities for ImplementationNARA Subscribed
The current generation of sequencing technologies can produce terabases of data with exceptional accuracy and speed, at a fraction of the cost of older methods. Despite this unprecedented power, adoption into aquaculture health management presents several challenges, including identifying where such capability may be optimally deployed. Here we synthesise discussions from a structured expert workshop held at the 2025 Aotearoa...
Osteoporosis, characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and increased fracture risk, is common yet underdiagnosed in older adults. Medications such as corticosteroids, levothyroxine, and antiepileptic drugs are well-documented contributors to BMD loss. This study examines how long-term use of these medications affects osteoporosis prevalence, specifically focusing on sex and age differences. This retrospective electronic...
On the Causes of Correlated Genomic Ancestry Across Contrasting Hybridization Histories in a Monkeyflower Species PairNARA Subscribed
Hybridization is a powerful force shaping the evolutionary trajectories of species, yet its outcomes are highly variable both across taxa and within a pair of species. In this study, we examine the processes shaping variation in the extent of hybrid ancestry, both among populations and across the genome. We use low‐coverage sequencing data to infer local ancestry across the genome for 782 individuals from multiple populations...
