Rare, long-distance dispersal underpins genetic connectivity in the pink sea fan, Eunicella verrucosa
The study investigates genetic connectivity in the pink sea fan, Eunicella verrucosa, across the northeast Atlantic and the Atlantic–Mediterranean basin. It combines population genomics and oceanographic modelling to understand patterns of marine connectivity. The research addresses patterns of genetic connectivity, the influence of pelagic larval duration (PLD) and oceanography on particle dispersal, and the agreement between passive particle dispersal and genetic variation. The study involves sampling, DNA extraction, sequencing, SNP calling, and various analyses to explore population structure, gene flow, and the impact of environmental variables on genetic variation.
Arsenal 'ready to trigger £34m release clause' of player after Liverpool defeat but it's not a striker
Arsenal is considering activating the £34m release clause of Bayer Leverkusen's right-back Jeremie Frimpong following their defeat to Liverpool. Despite needing a striker, Arsenal's interest in Frimpong, who has a goal involvement every 120 minutes this season, could enhance their right wing, especially with Bukayo Saka. Frimpong recently extended his contract until 2028, but his release clause still allows for a potential transfer, with a summer move being more likely. Leverkusen's Simon Rolfes praised Frimpong as one of the best in his position, and Arsenal's move could be seen as a win over Manchester United, who had failed advanced talks with him previously.
