Simulating upstream migration and spawning timing effects to allis shad reproductive success
We developed the HoOS simulator (Hasty or Omniscient Shads) to assess how upstream migration and reproductive timings influence allis shad Alosa alosa (Linnaeus, 1758) temperature-dependent survival of early-life...

Open AccessOccurrence and characterisation of naphthenic acid fraction components in oil residues and sediments stranded on the shoreline of Chedabucto Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada
In June 2016, oil residues and sediment samples were collected from the shoreline of Chedabucto Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada, at sites affected by the 1970 Arrow oil spill. This study aimed to investigate the occurre...

Open AccessPopulation genomics of apricots unravels domestication history and adaptive events
Among crop fruit trees, the apricot (Prunus armeniaca) provides an excellent model to study divergence and adaptation processes. Here, we obtain nearly 600 Armeniaca apricot genomes and four high-quality assembli...

A field-based definition of the thermal preference during spawning for allis shad populations (Alosa alosa)
All around the world, diadromous fish are facing multiple anthropogenic pressures resulting in a global decline in these migratory species. In Gironde, the allis shad populations which were the most abundant i...

Allis shad adopts an efficient spawning tactic to optimise offspring survival
The potential effects of global warming on the allis shad population were tested by combining a time series of spawning acts with expected thermal survival rates for embryos and larvae until 14 days post hatch...

Map** of new resistance (Vr2, Rm1) and ornamental (Di2, pl) Mendelian trait loci in peach
Peach powdery mildew is one of the major diseases of the peach. Various sources of resistance to PPM have thus been identified, including the single dominant locus Vr2 carried by the peach rootstock ‘Pamirskij 5’...

Identifying SNP markers tightly associated with six major genes in peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] using a high-density SNP array with an objective of marker-assisted selection (MAS)
One of the applications of genomics is to identify genetic markers linked to loci responsible for variation in phenotypic traits, which could be used in breeding programs to select individuals with favorable a...
