Impalas are unusual among bovids because they have remained morphologically similar over millions of years—a phenomenon referred to as evolutionary stasis. Here, we sequenced 119 whole genomes from the two extant subspecies of impala, the common ( Aepyceros melampus melampus ) and black‐faced ( A. m. petersi ) impala. We investigated the evolutionary forces working within the species to explore how they might be associated wit...

Skin ulcerations rank amongst the most prevalent lesions affecting wild common dab ( Limanda limanda ) with an increase in prevalence of up to 3.5% in the Belgian part of the North Sea. A complex aetiology of these ulcerations is suspected, and many questions remain on the exact factors contributing to these lesions. To construct the aetiological spectrum of skin ulcerations in flatfish, a one‐day monitoring campaign was under...

The biochemical, serological and genetic characteristics of six strains of Pseudomonas anguilliseptica isolated from cod, Gadus morhua , in Scotland were compared to well characterized isolates of this same bacterial species but of different origin. Biochemical and physiological analyses showed that this group of isolates was highly homogeneous, their characteristics matching previous descriptions of the pathogen. Similar resu...
