New📜paper out in Aquatic Toxicology. In zebrafish, maternal exposure to the plastic additive Bisphenol S (a common replacement for BPA in many "BPA-free" products) negatively affects their male offspring. Similar to the effects of maternal estrogen exposure, male offspring hid less, decreased their shoal density in the presence of a predatory threat and reduced expression of multiple serotonin receptor genes.

A new collaboration📜paper just published in Genome Research. We observed that individuals of the Western African cichlid Benitochromis nigrodorsalis are capable of reproduction even when isolated for years. Now, by analyzing genome-wide SNPs and measuring maternal heterozygosity, we provide clear evidence for facultative selfing in this cichlid species, a potentially adaptive strategy when mating partners are absent. https://doi.org/10.1101/gr.277368.122
