A multi-level assessment of the relevance of 18 highly conserved neural zebrafish microexons showed that individual deletions of most microexons did not exhibit strong phenotypes, likely because of compensatory changes.

Independent replication confirms that avoidance of pathogenic PA14 learned by Caenorhabditis elegans persists through the F2 generation using standardized sodium azide immobilization choice assays, clarifying prior reproducibility concerns.

Evidence that learned avoidance of a pathogenic bacterium can be transmitted to future generations in C. elegans is growing.

While the genes involved in craniofacial development are highly conserved between the fat-tailed dunnart and mouse, their cis-regulatory elements show significant divergence and appear to reflect species-specific developmental processes.

Hematopoietic reprogramming reflects the selective and evolutionarily conserved engagement of transcription factor networks that encode innate immune memory in long-lived stem cells.
